Only PJ or Steyn could get laffs out of tedious dreck.
If Hillary's ghostwriters didn't have to be bound and gagged,
after seeing their output, they are bound to have gagged.

All Hillary, all the time...

The Alpha-dork husband, the super-twerp wife, and the hyper-wonk vice president--together with all their mega-weenie water carriers, such as vicious pit gerbil George Stephanopoulos and Eastern diamondback rattleworm Sidney Blumenthal--spent eight years trying to make America nothing to brag about.

Oh, life is good. Matt Labash, Mark Steyn, and now P.J. O'Rourke. This almost makes up for not being able to find any recounting of adventures in Iraq with Chris Hitchens. Maybe in a book....I LOVE P.J.!!

Hillary failed the District of Columbia bar examination, but she passed in Arkansas

Surprised she allowed this to slip into her tome of lies. But not surprised she failed the DC bar....only an idiot would hang with dirty bill.

"Living History" arrived from the publisher with a seven-page executive summary (itself ferociously tedious) that indicates no one is intended to read this book. Of course, a couple of people had to. There is the junior associate--doubtless a strong, intelligent woman--at the law firm of Bland and Blander who slogged through every word to make sure nothing was actionable. And then there's me. Poor me. But, except for us, "Living History" suffers the fate of modern poetry, with an authorship of many and an audience of none.

Here's to PJ for reading that garbage and saving the rest of us from the misery.

P.J. bump.

". . . in the first jury trial I handled on my own, I defended a canning company against a plaintiff who found the rear end of a rat in the can of pork and beans he opened for dinner one night."

Prove it Hillary. We want the court transcript.

"The serious and stony-faced delegates suddenly leaped from their seats to give me a standing ovation. Delegates rushed to touch me, shout words of appreciation and thank me for coming."

... and the waters parted and a bright light descended from Heaven.

Puh-lease.

[tdadams]

"Ireland invigorated and inspired me, and I wished we could bottle up the good feelings and take them back home." It's been done before.

LOL! Gotta love P.J.

[Jimmy Valentine's brother]

Over here! P.J. O'Rourke strikes again.

......and were extremely successful in doing.

We must understand her sense of humor: "No one can make me laugh the way Bill does."

Just like the time Bill told her he was boinking Monika..........that must have been a gut splitter ;-)

Thank you PJ and Pokey78. I knew this would be a piece of crap, but it takes someone with a strong stomach to find bits like "we had intimate private dinners with local dignitaries." to show what a waste this book is to history or to anyone but a money grubbing coward's wife.

"The crowd erupted into a frenzy of clapping, chanting, and foot-stomping. . . . My motions to urge the crowd to sit down were futile, so I just waved and let the cheers wash over me."

[eureka!]

Best review yet. Wonderful...

PJ O'Rourke takes off on Hillary Rod 'Em Clinton

[foreshadowed at waco]

Boring others is a form of aggression, and Hillary attacks her public with the weapon of brutal dullness. Ms. Clinton has led a busy, meddlesome life from an early age. "I was elected co-captain of the safety patrol. . . . This was a big deal at our school."

This quote encapsulates Hillary for me...like Al Gore and his pocket protector/ hall monitor high school persona, Hillary was and is a dweeb...almost makes me understand why Bill can't stop himself from waving his wand at anything cute that passes by...and the bar for cute when compared to Hillary didn't have to be that high...someone breathing with a shred of personality would leave her in the dust.

[patriot_wes]

I always knew this woman was brilliant!

.."Not that the book isn't supposed to sell. And I understand it's selling nicely. I do not begrudge Hillary and her publisher their profits. The money will allow them, per Dante, to visit the fifth cornice of purgatory, where avarice is atoned, whenever they can get family leave from the ninth circle of hell where they'll be eternally tortured for spreading false doctrine. The free market is a good thing".

BRILLIANT..

PRICELESS.
