"I am still unsure about what Humpty Dumpty represented to me on that day, because I do not subscribe to -- and I even resent -- the theory that America's arrogance, even indirectly, led to the attacks. It just seemed as though the world were falling down, like Humpty Dumpty."

"What did she (Chelsea) contribute?"

OldFriend... she stayed out of the effing way.
Now if she can just do that for the rest of her life,
like Amy Carter did, THAT would be a real contribution.

Chelsea sure proves that the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. What overblown, sophmoric writing. But how can you learn anything when you're never in school?

Has any one else noticed how little she seemed to actually be at Stanford? She was always traveling somewhere having photo ops with mom and dad.

I just thought of something: can anyone out there arrange for Chelsea (and family)
to meet Buffy, the Vampire Slayer?

I'm tempted to give Chelsea a pass because she's still a youngster and was raised by wolves but the utter lack of maturity and insight she displays is overwhelming.

Most people probably would have been fearful of being harmed or even being killed if they had been in the proximity of the attack. Upon reflection, a mature person would feel a sense of remorse, if not shame, for feeling so distressed when others, sans bodygaurds,were savagely murdered while she slipped away with nothing more than a bad case of the yips.

Instead, Chelsea seems eager to embrace her "victim" status. She makes no mention of the fact that she maintains taxpayer funded Secret Service protection when she is no more entitled to it than you or I. If she is genuinely concerned about the ability of the Government to rebuild NY or pay for the injuries suffered by the real victims she should instruct her gaurds to assist in the clean up efforts or allow them to return to more appropriate duty, thus sparing the taxpayer the expense.

She displays her Father's instict to politicize and personalize every tragedy. Unfortunately for her, she appears to have inherited her mother's inabilty to express herself without sounding like a cynical, selfish nitwit.

Chelsea just mader herself fair game.

Up until this moment, I would deride anyone attacking Chelsea. Attack a person for their character, not because of family relationships.

BUT... but this little statement of hers does make her fair game and Chelsea appears but a petty little left-wing mouthpiece who can't put aside partisan politics. makes her look like

George Costanza

Hey, wait a minute. All the women that willingly take an interest in him become gay. On second thought, maybe you have something there.

Why in the world would anyone ( mainstream media ) believe that what Chelsea thinks or says is relevant? How many kids of Mafia Dons are interviewed and their opinions given any relevancy?
The only claim to fame Chelsea has is that her parents were/are the most sinister political criminals in our nation's history. In addition she is so butt ugly, yech, ptui........

This little prevert (not pervert) has no place on the world stage as much as she would like one.

Any spawn of billylips and hilthighs deserves to look for a small dark hole to retire into and shut up!! for the rest of her life.

I wonder how much of this was written by Hillary. It has the same sophmoric tone that Hillary's thesis had.

Note that TOADUS's story is just like Obubba Been Laiden's speech given when he was moving into his Harlem swinger's club: he made up a story on the spot about when he came back from England, the 'hood was his first stop. Now TOADUS's story is growing exponentially each day. First it was she was several blocks away, then it was she was thinking about jogging near the WTC while swilling coffee, and now look at it!! Also, all this happened in September and they are just getting the article in for the December issue?! Sounds like they gave TOADUS, BLOATUS, and GOATUS a while to get their stories honed before submitting the article.

Lets see. Originally she claimed she was jogging when it happened but stopped off for coffee and it saved here life. Any mention of that in the article?

She also claims she was "alone." If she was alone, who was she expounding to on the tax cuts? The mouse in her pocket?

She then also talks about "we" repeatedly. But she said she was alone?

I would venture to say that she was no where near NYC when this happened, but chances are she was indeed in NYC. She just couldnt decide what story she wanted to run with so she piled em all together into one big giant lie.
