If the Cubbies can shake off a 71 year old curse and an onslaught of naysayers to win the National League pennant to advance to the World Series than Donald J Trump can win the presidency!Sure, the real battle is still ahead for both of them, butt at the beginning of the season nobody thought either of them had chance of making it to the big dance. And yet here they are, improbables both, battling for a yuge win for their long suffering fans. The Chicago Cubs will do battle with the Indians (!?!) and Trump will fight against Hillary,...

Happy Anniversary Bill and Hillary Clinton! 41 glorious years together, that’s quite an achievement. I’ll drink to that.They have one child, Chelsea, Love you too, “dad”who has now joined them in the family business, The Clinton Global Initiative, and two grandchildren, Charlotte Clinton Mezvinsky, Aidan Clinton Mezvinsky, who will no-doubt carry on the family enterprise when they come of age.Let’s take a brief look at a few of the Clinton’s accomplishments in their years together.First, they ran the state of Arkansas together,where Chelsea was born.There they first learned how to use government funding for private benefit by hiring a nanny...

Bill Clinton recently updated his January 26, 1998 response to allegations that he had *ahem* sexual relations with “that woman,” Monica Lewinski:It’s “the biggest load of bull I’ve ever heard,” said Hillary Clinton’s consort-of-sorts.And that goes double for the accusations being recklessly hurled at Hillary by that FBI pimp, Comey:  “They saw two little notes with a ‘C’ on it — this is the biggest load of bull I’ve ever heard — that were about telephone calls that she needed to make. The State Department typically puts a little ‘C’ on it to discourage people from discussing it in public in...

Let the record reflect that Bubba has officially taken to the stump for Hilz: Mr. Clinton appeared a little rusty, rambling at times during his first campaign rally at Nashua Community College… He talked about his own presidency [ed. of course he did] and the work of his foundation [ed. - I don’t think he really wants to go there; see here for a synopsis of Thomas Lifson’s excellent article on the money laundering scheme], which he mentioned a few times, and about Mrs. Clinton’s ideas and the need to elect a president to fit the times [ed. -...

me is Monica Lewinsky. Though I have often been advised to change it, or asked why on earth I haven’t. But, there we are. I haven’t." Monica Lewinsky spoke at the Forbes Magazine 30 Under 30 Summit and spoke about the affair that almost brought down the Bill Clinton administration. In her 2,500 word speech she blamed her humiliation on the Drudge Report, Internet, Ken Starr, the NY Post's Page Six, everybody except for the married President with whom she had sexual relations. From the transcript: But back then, in 1995, we started an affair that lasted, on and off,...

Monica Lewinsky is stepping out of the shadows, writing for the first time about her mid-1990s affair with former President Bill Clinton in this month’s edition of Vanity Fair. […] Lewinsky says she is going public in part because of the tragic story of 18-year-old Rutgers student Tyler Clementi, who killed himself in 2010 after his roommate filmed him, without his knowledge, kissing another man. Lewinsky says the incident took her back to the days of her own scandal, when her mother worried she would try to commit suicide. Lewinsky says now she believes it is important to tell her...

Michael Isikoff, the left-wing journalist most famous for getting scooped on The Story of the Decade by Matt Drudge, is exiting NBC News ... It was during his time with Newsweek that Isikoff became yet-another icon of a mainstream media more interested in protecting power than holding power accountable. In 1998, Isikoff had uncovered the affair between then-President Bill Clinton and a young intern named Monica Lewinski. Newsweek, however, refused to publish the story. So Drudge did -- not the story but the news that Newsweek was refusing to explode its own bombshell... -- and an era in New Media...

DID YOU PLUG THE HOLE WITH A BLUE DRESS YET, DADDY?June 2, 2010 Oil is spewing from beneath a British Petroleum oil rig into the Gulf of Mexico at a rate of about 1 million gallons a day. There's no end in sight -- although White House officials have made it clear their goal is to stop the leak before the midterm elections in November. Obama now spends at least half of every day answering pointed, increasingly aggressive questions about the oil spill, most of them from his daughter Malia. The president finally went down to take a look at...

Former chief White House political advisor Dick Morris revealed Tuesday that his former boss Bill Clinton cared so little about global terrorism that his own Assistant Secretary of State had trouble getting him to pay attention to a bomb threat against the Khobar Towers Air Force barracks in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. "In 1996, I got a phone call from Dick Holbrooke," Morris told WABC Radio's Sean Hannity. "He said, 'We're getting hard intelligence that terrorists are planning another hit on our guys in Riyadh.... They're in the exact same building they were in when it was hit last time.'" In ...

Interest group endorsements are critical to a primary campaign. Witness that all major Democrat hopefuls appeared at a construction-workers union conference last week, hoping to curry favor with big labor. The next day, Sen. Hillary Clinton returned to Washington to receive an endorsement from the National Organization for Women (NOW), another pillar of the liberal establishment. NOW's political action committee enthusiastically threw its weight behind Senator Clinton—the first woman with a seemingly real shot at the Presidency—and pledged to rally female voters across the country on her behalf. NOW's "thumbs up" for Hillary is no surprise. Sen. Clinton's domestic policy...

<p>We hope Secretary of State Colin Powell was privately embarrassed when, two days into a catastrophic disaster that hit 12 of the world's poorer countries and will cost billions of dollars to meliorate, he held a press conference to say that America, the world's richest nation, would contribute $15 million. That's less than half of what Republicans plan to spend on the Bush inaugural festivities.</p>

Ex-preident Bill Clinton now states that his reason for having an affair with Monica Lewinski was because "he could". Given this reasoning it occurs to me that there are MANY things that a President "COULD" do: Start a nuclear war Suspend constitutional rights Incinerate a church full of innocent children in Waco, Texas

<p>MONICA Lewinsky was manning a stand at the Chelsea Flea Market on Saturday and Sunday selling tchotchkes, but it's not a new careeer for the former White House intern. She and her friend Victoria Leacock were simply getting rid of things. "It was old stuff they had lying around. They cleaned out their closets," said Lewinsky's mouthpiece, Barbara Huttson. Lewinsky is a "flea market addict," Huttson said. But she won't be going back: "They called themselves 'the one-weekend wonder.' "</p>
