Hillary Spends Alot on Shoes

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 on those legs they look like "sensible shoes".
To: NC Conservative
Like Imelda Marcos.

Appears that Hildabeast and Imelda Marcos have even more in common than I would have thought.

Thanks for making me think about Hillary's feet!
Here's one for YOU!

She makes up for on shoes what she doesnt spend on pants.

Is this money coming from her advance on the book someone will write for her? Is it from Bill's pension? Where do these folks get all their money? Who's paying the mortgage and with what? Who's paying tuition over in the U.K. for Chelsea?

Dang, you beat me to that observation...

Now that they are in the chips I don't see them in any hurry to reimburse their (overly) loyal White House staff members who rang up large personal legal bills defending themselves and trying to keep the Clintons' royal asses out of the slammer.

I wonder where the money comes from too, Annie. I mean these poor folks had to steal furniture and glassware from the White House personal collection to furnish their several million dollar homes. Hillary registered like a blushing bride at a famous giftware store so her friends could furnish what they couldn't steal themselves.
Maybe now we know why they had to become Bonnie and Clyde. Hillary! spent Bill's Presidential salary on shoes! LOL!
Cinderella with the glass slipper she ain't! What a waste of some great shoes eh? What kind of shoe does one buy to go with the black pantsuit?

Marie Antoinette was set up. Lay off.

Did she pay the import duties on these shoes? Good question. If I know Hillary, she brings them back in a diplomatic pouch and makes the Secret Service agents carry them through customs.

Anatomy is destiny. With legs and rump in constant battle--the former a pantsuit imperative, the latter a tent essential--hillary clinton's hindquarter alternates schizophrenically between mannishly suited and prissily cropped, pleated and flounced, both equally vulgar.

Until now I had never put the two words 'screaming' and 'shoes' together.
To: NC Conservative
I thought she only throws a shoe once in a while from her hoofs.

P.S. The default position is shoes.
