OSCAR WORTHY
Some wondered about this picture, which I posted yesterday. First of all, I found the photo via an image Google search. I believe I used "Hillary bathing suit."
For those who don't know, or can't recall, the reason for this picture ...
It was taken in January, 1998, while the Clintons were on vacation in St. Thomas. The Clintons, who script every single, solitary second, needed a diversion from Slick's upcoming testimony in the Paula Jones civil lawsuit.
[If you'll recall, Bill Clinton lied during his testimony, which was why he was later impeached.]
Politically speaking, the "Carribbean cheesecake" was a good move because it allowed for some righteous indignation: "We stupidly assumed they'd be granted some privacy."
…
But Clinton also said: ... "I didn't think I was being photographed."
…
So why did the White House complain about an invasion of privacy? I asked.
"This is a post-Diana world," the source said. "It's good to complain about that, and it's good to complain about the press. It makes the public more on your side. But a picture of the two of them dancing? You can't lose with a picture like that."
Remember Geffen's words: "Everyone in politics lies, but they do it with such ease, it's troubling."
Let's not forget ...
8 Hillary denies using anti-Semitic slur F*J*B
8 Clinton blames others for 9/11
8 Did Clinton Pass Nuke Plans To Iran?

THANKS FOR THE MEMORIES ... HA HA HA!!!
As some of you may know, I co-blogged with Pat at Kerry Haters, and we weren't quite certain if we'd have to crank up the blog again. Then -- sniff sniff -- John Kerry announced the other day that he will not seek the '08 nomination. I realize that we treated Kerry like a joke at times, and we doubted his some of his military experiences. But he really did earn the gratitude of a few foreign leaders. I know these Marines won't ever forget Kerry.
Since Kerry's dream of the White House is history ...
What about his presidential plane?
What will he do with all those buttons?
What will his supporters do?
Oh, well, there will always be the product endorsements and his book tour.
