Quotes from Chelsea Clinton's piece in Talk magazine

Talk Magazine Dec 2001/Jan 2002 | Chelsea Clinton

[young1]

Chelsea was in NYC on 9-11 and wrote about her experience in the latest issue of "Talk" magazine. These are my fav quotes.

"One thing I recall is the somewhat irrational medley of thoughts running through my head: my parents, the tax cut, and Humpty-Dumpty."

"I worried that with the tax cut we wouldn't have enough money to repair New York and D.C. and to help the the families of the thousands I knew must have died."

"I was expounding on the detriments of Bush's tax cut as we approached Grand Central Terminal and were met with hordes of people running out of the station.."

"Once we stopped running I started praying. I prayed for my country and my city. I stopped berating the tax cut and started praying that the president would rise to lead us. And I thanked God my mother was a senator representing New York and that Rudy Giuliani was our mayor. I have never reacted so viscerally to a leader, particularly not to one I had been criticizing just the day before for some insensitivity or other.

"As soon as my father got back to New York, I was anxious to bring him to Manhattan......I knew he would want to connect with everyone who was confused and suffering..."

"As he always does, my father made me extemely proud."

"My mother, meanwhile, had worked nonstop, and as my father and I walked around Union Square, person after person approached us to tell us how grateful they were to her, how proud they were of here. I am still so unspeakably proud of her too, and as a New Yorker, grateful for her and her colleagues' efforts."

"That Monday I went to Rosh Hashanah services w/family friends, the Iscols.... In early Aug Zach (their son) was commissioned a second lieutenant in the Marine Corps..... most people could not understand his decision. Why waste a Cornell eduacation on the military? "

[Howlin]

I knew he would want to connect with everyone who was confused and suffering..."

In other words, "his people."

"As he always does, my father made me extemely proud."

I'm speechless.

Before you do that cmsgop, make sure get a double bourbon on the rocks! Poor Chelsea, someone should intervine before it is too late. We cannot have another generation of X42s! Oh god, a horrible thought! She marries a Kennedy! I think I will reach for the double bourbon! :-)

Then, by all means, the military should not protect her.

Boot her ignorant behind out of this country!

[katze]

Do you think she really talks like this?

No, and I doubt if she thinks like this, if at all. No doubt in my mind she's fed this crap by her handler. Why anyone bothers to print is beyond me.

This fits in perfectly with the argument that intelligence is largely inherited.

This also must be an updated version of what the daughter of a Politbureau member of the old USSR must have thought in times of stress.

Chelsea's 'piece' can talk?

[MCH]

I knew he would want to connect with everyone who was confused and suffering..."

In other words, "his people."

If "his people" are the nubile young women who are "confused and suffering", then I've no doubt he'd want to "connect" with them.

[Howlin]

[Wissa]

insipid twit,not only is she homely she's dumb as a rock

By the time she's about 35 years old, the press will be making her out to be the smartest woman in the world, and saying that America will be saved only if she is elected president.

[republicandiva]

So where does it say that she felt everyone's pain? This can't be real. How can any normal (o.k. maybe she's a sociopath like her parents) be more concerned about the ramifications of a tax cut during this horrific event, than be worried about personal safety and trying to help those in need? Something doesn't add up here.

Boooooooo

[who knows what evil?]

Shame 'Chris M' has gone to ground...I'd LOVE to see him try to defend this nonsense.

[NativeNewYorker]

as we approached Grand Central Terminal

Now, *I* know the facility is called "terminal" because it is the terminus of a bunch of rail lines. And I'm sure the stylebook on her editor's desk notes this as well.

But the long vernacular is Grand Central Station (technially correct for the subway lines that pass through it), but EVERYONE here ALWAYS calls it just "Grand Central".

This pap was transparently manufactured after-the-fact.

[swampfox98]

Chelsea sounds very much like a Clinton bull spreader in the making. It was alllllll about her and her feelings. Who cares what any of the traitorous Clintons think about anything? With our luck she'll be elected president some day. Hope I'm dead by then.

[spindoctor]

After reading this I'm convinced that the Clinton's should be hauled in for child abuse. This girl has been traumatized. "As he always does, my father made me extemely proud". If she can be proud of her father getting a bj from an intern, one wonders what they did to her when she was growing up.

[boycott]

"Why waste a Cornell education on the military?" She insulted every member of the military with this comment. She is an idiot just like her parents.

[calypgin]

Oh god, a horrible thought! She marries a Kennedy!

Not to worry, Kennedys do not marry horse-faced, ugly women...

Or, if I'm wrong and they do occasionally do so, they make sure the ugly wives are never photographed by the media! LOL

[katze]

#23 Why? Do you really expect anything more from this punk who has very little formal education? Do you expect her to have friends who feel differently from her? She's a Clinton, and they are still as common as any homeless man on the street. Or as is often said, you can't make a silk purse from a sow's ear--Chelsea is the ear.

I'm feeling kinds snotty and mean tonight after hearing about "him" and his hate speech, now this. This fammily could be billionaires, and they'd still be white trash.
