Hillary Invites You to Visit the White House Sink
WASHINGTON - Hillary Rodham Clinton, who will always be remembered as the "other woman," says farewell to her life as first lady in a new book that is a tribute to the last 8 years of White House history and her own personal style. An Invitation to the White House Sink, A Home With A History - makes a case for the first lady as a keeper of tradition.
It shows her as interior decorator, presidential hostess, entertainment impresario, menu overseer and temporary custodian of a national treasure, the most often used sink of any chief of state in the world.
As the nation learned from Monica Lewinsky's grand jury testimony, she observed the president masturbating near a White House bathroom sink. "What a way to start a day," the president exulted. What a subject to write a book about.
As chief custodian of the White House Mrs. Clinton is also chief custodian of all White House sinks.
"My Husband has always needed a lot of sinks around, and I take great pride in keeping them clean for him," Mrs. Clinton explained.
"I remember one time--Easter Sunday I believe--when I came home from church to find an unbelievably messy Oval Office bathroom," she writes. "So I pulled out my bleach and cleaned it while still wearing my Easter pantsuit. Thats how much the sinks of the White House mean to me."
Explains Mrs. Clinton, germs can pose a health threat to you and your family and disinfecting with bleach can dramatically lessen these risks. Mrs. Clinton warns, "You probably know that germs can be found in the toilet, but germs can also be found in some surprising places, like a bathroom mirror."
Throughout the sumptuously illustrated book, Clinton conveys a sense of the history she and her husband made in that house. "Wherever we looked there was something - a lamp I once threw, a chandelier Bill once swung from, a chair Bill once sat in while he had a pizza delivered to him - that told a story about the people and events that have shaped our administration's history."
"I remember one time--Easter Sunday I believe--when I came home from church to find an unbelievably messy Oval Office bathroom," she writes.
"So I pulled out my bleach and cleaned it while still wearing my Easter pantsuit. Thats how much the sinks of the White House mean to me."
It's called Evidence Suppression.
Absolutely!
