Hillary Spends Alot on Shoes
Alamance Independent.Com | Unknown | NC Conservative

Posted on 11/02/2001 6:35:39 PM PST by NC Conservative

In June 1999, Hillary Clinton was in Palermo, Sicily as her husband was in that Italian city for the summit meeting - and she sure didn't waste any time.

Hillary - like any bored housewife dragged along on a business trip by her husband - went shopping.

More specifically, Hillary shopped for shoes - the same expensive Bruno Magli brand preferred by O.J. Simpson. She bought 18 pair of pumps for a total of $5,000 - some at the company's boutique in Palermo, others when she requested a private showing in her hotel suite.

The Bruno Magli company reports that Hillary has been a loyal customer for many years.

A press release by Bruno Magli says that lots of famous Americans wear its shoes - but it names only Hollywood celebrities and doesn't name any politicians.

Maybe that's because voters would question the common sense of any woman who paid $277.78 for a pair of shoes when she could have bought Easy Spirit pumps for $69 at any department store in America. Maybe that's because voters would question the common sense of any woman who spends more per pair of shoes than the average woman spends each month on her car payment; a new Toyota Camry leases for $269 a month, no down payment. Maybe that's because voters would question how such a woman could possibly relate to the problems of Real Americans.

Hillary is either America's Marie Antoinette - or its Imelda Marcos.

And yet to date I have not heard of Hillary donating a single dollar to the WTC relief fund.

Due to the enormous size of her ankles, the tops of her shoes probably spllit. Either that or her cloven hooves wear through the sides.

First, I am surprised that these shoes were not on her end-of-the-term-wish-list, like the cashmere sweater sets supporters gave her as "love gifts" in January 2001.

Secondly, too bad she didn't spend a fraction of that money on a new pantsuit. Navy would be a nice alternative to black.

Thirdly, who cares. Like many other women who are coyote-ugly, after looking at that face, who would ever stick around long enough to find out what are on those piano-leg feet?

How much of hillarys book advance did she donate to the 911 fund? Didn't hear any news reports, but being a "new yorker" and her focus on "the children", I am sure it must have been very large.

Oh thats right she's full of ****.

It's hard to find a pair of shoes to fit cloven hooves.

Yeah, but who's paying for them? These moochers have always found a way to get their rich pals or the public to pay for their excesses.
