First husband and U.S. Sen. Bill Clinton? Past aides ask, why not?

WASHINGTON - It's the year 2009 and William Jefferson Clinton, the newest member of the Senate Fisheries subcommittee, is waiting, tray in hand, for the Senate cafeteria cashier to ring up his turkey burger, banana and Diet Coke.

The scenario may seem far-fetched (the Secret Service would probably be holding his tray), but Clinton would find himself in the Senate if some former aides have their druthers.

Two events would have to happen first: Hillary Rodham Clinton would have to be elected president and Gov. Eliot Spitzer would have to appoint the first husband as New York's junior senator.

I didn't see this article posted on a search so sorry if it is a repost. But if what is mentioned in the article occurs, this could spell the beginning of the end of civilization.

[Lazamataz]

I don't buy this for a second.

Bill Clinton is headed to UN Secretary General.

With Hillary as President, they can do a lot of damage -- to the point that elections are no longer necessary in the United States.

First husband and U.S. Sen. Bill Clinton?.........Past constituants ask, WHY????????????????

[NorCalRepub]

....somewhat agree....Dick Morris was right on this one, why be a Senator being deadlocked in Congress all the time when Clinton makes tons of money running around everywhere being an Ambassador at Large kind of guy.....why on earth would he ever want to be a Senator....decrease in pay and freedom......no way.....

[SMARTY]

No matter where either of these two end up (together or separately), there will be mega monkeyshines, smoke-and-mirrors and every travesty of ethics, competency and honor that you could possibly dream up in 100 lifetimes.

Hillary to trust Bill? Sure, that'll work. She be better off appointing one of those wimpy metrosexuals who chase after her.

God why won't they just GO AWAY......

as soon as I read the headline the imperial march from Star Wars duly started playing in my head

...Dick Morris was right on this one...

Agreed. I heard his pitch on Fox. Yeah, Billy will go for the money, not the sociopathic power his so-called "wife" wants...

[BenLurkin]

"Why not" indeed.

These hucksters have never let law, decency, propriety or even good taste stand in their way.

[ConservativeStatement]

Because power is food to them; it is needed for survival. Fill in your own Hillary joke. :-)

Since 9-11 haven't the American people suffered enough?

[syriacus]

Idle hands are the devil's workshop. Bill has to be kept busy. Dems don't want any voters to have the opportunity to visualize First Gentleman William Clinton idly wandering the halls of the White House.

[Palladin]

Please, God, don't let this happen.

I'll take gas.

What's more likely...

"It's the year 2009 and William Jefferson Clinton, the newest member of the Senate Fisheries subcommittee, is trying to have sex with the Senate cafeteria cashier waiting to ring up his turkey burger, banana and Diet Coke."

[chit*chat]

why on earth would he ever want to be a Senator....decrease in pay and freedom......

Momma wants to keep an eye on him and this might be an easy way to clip his wings.

[Palladin]

Nah...he'll still be getting "pizza delivery" from interns.

[ConservativeStatement]

Prior to the witch's recent statement about "evil men," I told my sister-in-law, who has a son, that if the wildebeest ever becomes President she will seek the military draft and limit it to men. When asked why women would be excluded, she will say "Women can do the job but EVIL MEN will have their way with women in the field." Get ready. If she becomes President, we are all doomed.

First husband and U.S. Sen. Bill Clinton?

We could score a twofer if Clinton is defeated in her WH bid. She doesn't get to be prez, Bill doesn't get her Senate seat and America scores a major home run!!
