"Everyone knows Bill Clinton has had his fair share of scandals," said P.J. Corkery, society columnist for the SF Examiner. "On the other hand, Ian's parents have a blemish-free background.

Lewinsky's parents had a blemish-free background until their daughter met a Clinton. The family name is now synonymous with "BJ".

Thank you, Hildy! I just love this article. How can young son, Ian, bring this "girl" home? What the heck would the polite dinner conversation be?! Can't ask about family (even the relatives of her relatives are crooks!); can't ask about politics (how to politely break it to the girl that her parents are flaming Marxists?!); can't talk religion--the Klintoons have none execpt, "me first and mo' money"--can't even discuss Chelsea following in her father's footsteps at Oxford (rape always is a bug-a-boo, even when the offense happened many moons ago--just ask Juanita and NBC!) No, just one thing for Mummy and Daddy to do. They should have a word with poor Ian before he, too, suffers a complete brain-drain!

Let's see: sexually promicuous, "the rules apply to the lowly peons not to my magificience," cheating, arrogant, ugly as sin...

The answer to the old joke: What do you get when you cross a crooked lawyer with a corrupt politician? Answer: Chelsea!

Breeding runs true.

[Physicist]

She's fair game.

OK, she is, but what do we gain by paying this much attention to her? Personally, I think it's counterproductive. The more market there is for all things Chelsea, the more the media will focus on her, and that's the sole source of any clout she has.

Wow! Talk about cutting edge reporting!

I think this relationship is doomed as soon as Ian takes a gander of both *Bill and *Hill, on the beach, in their bathing suits...

Other sources say Ian's parents are loyal Democrats. This piece from the San Francisco Examiner is chock full of information:

More news of the Clinton-Klaus romance: Daddy Bill Clinton took his daughter and her beau, the pride of Belvedere, Ian Klaus, around the new Tate Modern Art Gallery in London last week. Says a conveniently placed Londoner to a London paper, "President Clinton seemed comfortable with Ian and glad that his daughter has a found a decent man." The trio toured the galleries with the rest of the public, but with a security detail of 12.[Your tax dollars at work] Bubba bought drinks for the young couple. Chelsea and Ian, who met at a rally of American students at Oxford post-9/11, are expected to announce their engagement by June. ... In case you're wondering, Klaus' parents, the eminent and respectable Robin and Patricia of Belvedere, are both longtime Democrats. ... source.

You mean a breed like this?

Is Klaus also in jeopardy with Oxford? I wonder what he enjoys most - Chelsea herself or all the connections and hobnobbing he is getting/doing.

What is the male equivalent of 'arm candy'?

I really don't care what Chelsea is doing, but I do care about the $$$ being paid out for her protection. If she were cracking the books and had SS all about - that is one thing, but obviously she and her parents aren't the least bit concerned about her safety or she would not be gallivanting all over the place --- at gov't expense, ---- and THAT I don't like!

Reportedly, Hillary's *job* on her face to help her in her race was a "two-fer" -- Chelsea had some work from the same surgeon. (My guess, something done to scale down the Hubbell-tell-tale-chipmunk-cheeks).

[mountaineer]

Those two Yanks at Oxford, Chelsea Clinton and Belvedere's own Ian Klaus, checked into the Gritti Palace in Venice for a three-day stay. The bill ran to about $10,000. The Brit papers say they registered as "Mr. & Mrs. Smith." Well, they could have done that out of a sense of fun. ... The Brits think the two will be engaged before June. ... source.

[krunkygirl]

actually, even if his parents are Democrats, it doesn't really change anything I said in #42...how does one justify one's family when you are a Klintoon?

[pabianice]

>>reportedly further infuriating officials at Oxford University. Clinton and Klaus, both 22 and Oxford students, have seemed to be on world tour ever since they began dating in November. Oxford has a strict rule that students must reside on campus for at least six weeks of the 11-week term. Chelsea seems to be straining the policy

Why not? Papa gave the law the finger for 8 years and got away with it?

[mountaineer]

Quite agree!

Thanks! I hadn't heard it, but did notice something different about her.
