Britain’s new Foreign Minister once compared Hillary to “a sadistic nurse in a mental hospital”
Legal Insurrection ^ | William A. Jacobson

Posted on 07/13/2016 8:19:23 PM PDT by Fractal Trader

I don’t know a ton about Boris Johnson. He’s the former Mayor of London, is very pro-Israel and hates the BDS movement, led the Brexit campaign only to withdraw from contention to be Prime Minister, and was just appointed Foreign Minister (okay, “Foreign Secretary”) in Theresa May’s new cabinet. And he has a mop of blonde hair.

He obviously has some wit, as in a 2007 column in The Telegraph newspaper in Britain, wherein he described Hillary Clinton in terms we all can appreciate (emphasis added):

“She’s got dyed blonde hair and pouty lips, and a steely blue stare, like a sadistic nurse in a mental hospital …”

Sounds like he was channeling Rush Limbaugh, who made the comparison just a couple of months earlier, Mrs. Clinton Plays Nurse Ratched:

He went on to describe why he was supporting her for president in 2008 despite that description. He relished the thought of Bill Clinton back in the White House carousing around:

How can I possibly want Hillary? I mean, she represents, on the face of it, everything I came into politics to oppose: not just a general desire to raise taxes and nationalise things, but an all-round purse-lipped political correctness….

Unless I am much mistaken, the Clinton marriage is still standing, a shell-scarred monument to the triumph of hope over experience; and the nub of the matter is that I am prepared to pay the price of supporting Hillary just to get Bill Clinton once again padding over the shag pile carpet of the Oval Office, even if it is only to bring his wife a cup of tea….

Nowadays, it’s primarily wigs. Her meanness made all her natural hair fall out.

The first one looks a little bit like Bill O’Reilly!

I know...it is pretty creepy. I think Sandy Berger is scary enough without crossing him with Nurse Rachet.

Yes! My father was a US citizen, was also a legal Australian citizen, was also an Irish citizen. He had 3 legal passports. He also had a “certificate of British partiality” that if he chose, he could apply for and receive a British passport.

He also called George W. Bush “a cross-eyed Texan warmonger, unelected, inarticulate, who epitomises the arrogance of American foreign policy.” He’s a bi-partisan insulter.

I heard someone say that Boris is a dual citizen of both the UK and the USA - is that possible?

The IRS thought so. They came after him after he made £730,000 selling a house in London.

That’s not fair. I remember Louise Fletcher in “One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest” and she was gorgeous.

Yes, she owns a lot of real estate.
