Penny For Your Thoughts!

Paula Jones and Gennifer Flowers are reminding us of the classy times we can still have if Hillary Clinton clambers aboard the Ship of Hope.

The once spunky gals have launched a web site where you and all Americans can hear their still urgent thoughts on Bill Clinton’s genitalia, for the low, low price of $1.99.

It’s but the latest of their legendary money making schemes – the books [autographed copies still available for $60!], 900#s, dirty pictures and “celebrity” boxing matches.

Up Where We Belong

Gerald Ford’s former Colorado home is for sale, and the frenzy is unrestrained!

“To our knowledge, it has been generations since the home of a former President has been offered to the open marketplace…and this is the only one in history to have such a prized location.“

Well.

Ford’s own home in Alexandria Virginia has languished on the market lately. To our knowledge there have recently been two Nixons and a Kennedy sold, a Harding changed hands in 2004, a Reagan in 2000, and Eleanor Roosevelt’s former home is for rent.

No word if the Colorado Ford property includes his home x-ray machine.

Purdum Pulls The Trigger

The latest on Bill “my office is in Harlem” Clinton’s adventures is served up in Vanity Fair‘s July issue by the magazine’s own star map of Washington, Todd Purdum.

It’s a delightful medley of old scandal and new.

Reviewing Clinton pants-down matters, Purdum reports on “… recent high-end Hollywood dinner-party gossip that Clinton has been seen visiting with the actress Gina Gershon in California,” but Gawker had this almost six months ago.

Purdum does better provoking post presidential spokesman Jay Carson on Clinton pal and billionaire boys club headmaster Ron Burkle. Carson reveals a longing for the opposition’s Fuhrer Principle:

“The ills of the Democratic Party can be seen perfectly in the willingness of fellow Democrats to say bad things about President Clinton. If you ask any Republican about Reagan they will say he still makes the sun rise in the morning, but if you ask Democrats about their only two-term president in 80 years, a man who took the party from the wilderness of loserdom to the White House and created the strongest economy in American history, they’d rather be quoted saying what a reporter wants to hear than protect a strong brand for the party. Republicans look at this behavior and laugh at us.”

A thorough reading of the New York Times and Wall Street Journal leads Purdum to conclude Clinton is asking for bad press.

“But it is also beyond dispute that Clinton has blended the altruistic efforts of his philanthropy with the private business interests of some of his biggest donors in ways that are surpassingly sloppy, if not unseemly, for any former president.”

Purdum’s catchall excuse for differentiating Clinton from the cash which flowed to former president’s Reagan, Bush, and Ford is that “their wives never ran for president,” as though Clinton coverage only started with Hillary’s run. The current White House occupant goes unmentioned, along with Barbara Bush using the Bush-Clinton Katrina Fund as a pass-through to troubled son Neil.

Mama Tried

Fauxing It In

The George W. Bush Library-To-Be’s failure to secure likely website names has been the subject of speculation over future confusion. The future is now here.

The anti-Bushite at theruminationsofoldnfeeble has confused georgewbush.org with the real deal, and is suitably outraged.

“There he is. In all his finest, chest-puffing commander-in-chief regalia. Can you believe it? The one image you’d think they’d bury in the basement. The image that captures that “Mission Accomplished” moment from this endless, senseless, insane war Bush has drug this country into.

Is there ANY end to the unmitigated gall of this egomaniac and his cohorts?”

Bush Insider Tells All!

Scott McClellan has revealed shocking details of the Bush White House: apparently they function in “permanent political campaign” mode.

Favorite Fun Fact Presented In Sentence of Unrelated Parts:

“McClellan describes Bush as able to convince himself of his own spin and relates a phone call he overheard Bush having during the 2000 campaign, in which he said he could not remember whether he had used cocaine. “I remember thinking to myself, ‘How can that be?’ ” he writes.”
