  2. Familiarity breeds contempt.

  3. I see you’ve made an (at least temporary) exception in the Politico embargo. Good call!

  4. Remember Robert Smigel making fun of the First Horndog?

  5. elissa,

    There is no link to Politico in this post. Nothing has changed.

    When I do link them, I link a cache, so Google gets the link, not Politico.

  6. truth in advertising…

  8. Politico may be turning over a new leaf. Reporting the truth and not the spin. I say let them have at it. The hole they have dug is only 6″ deep and has a slight corkscrew (according to independent reports) so don’t stop them until no further progress is possible.

  9. Kay, don’t clean that blue dress.

  10. He slugged her and then plugged her.

    And then had a cigar.

  12. Unlike most men Billy Jeff really doesn’t seem to have a specific “type” that he favors, does he?

    elissa (2a0148) — 11/1/2014 @ 4:54 pm

  13. Oh, elissa, he most assuredly has a type. XX human.

    Simon Jester (c8876d) — 11/1/2014 @ 4:55 pm

  14. His mother must have told him the same thing my mother said to me.

  16. WarEagle82: What browser do you use? Or are you the creator of this magnificent (?) art?

    bobathome (7da0f6) — 11/1/2014 @ 5:35 pm

  17. Poor editing or a having a bit of fun at Clinton’s expense??

    Dana (8e74ce) — 11/1/2014 @ 5:38 pm

  18. Even more amusing, the awkwardly titled post is at the Politico Pro section. heh.

  19. “Phrasing?”

    elissa (2a0148) — 11/1/2014 @ 4:54 pm

    His type is “slow enough to catch.”

    http://articles.latimes.com/1996-05-25/news/mn-8167_1_inca-mummy

    Clinton joked during a political fund-raiser Wednesday that the 500-year-old frozen mummy, known as the Ice Princess, was “good-looking” and if he were single he might ask her out. “That mummy looks better than I do on my worst days,” he said.

    Breathing, not breathing, who cares, just so she’s not getting away (and who said he was joking).

    Steve57 (c1c90e) — 11/1/2014 @ 6:05 pm

  22. Although, to cut him some slack, he is married to Hillary! so he has years of experience sleeping with the frozen corpse of the Ice Princess.

    Steve57 (c1c90e) — 11/1/2014 @ 6:06 pm

  23. Unlike most men Billy Jeff really doesn’t seem to have a specific “type” that he favors, does he?

    Old enough to pee, old enough for HE.

  24. Many years ago, Slate thought Bill Clinton has a type.

    DRJ (a83b8b) — 11/1/2014 @ 6:12 pm

  25. There needs to be a specific style guide for some people. Words to avoid with Bill: nail, screw, cover, plug…

    Kevin M (d91a9f) — 11/1/2014 @ 8:11 pm

  26. Is

    nk (dbc370) — 11/1/2014 @ 8:13 pm

  27. the only one that was really attractive, was Elizabeth Ward Gracen, in my opinion, I guess that’s how she ended up on Highlander,

    narciso (ee1f88) — 11/1/2014 @ 8:14 pm

  28. Billy Jeff’s type?:

    Breathing
    Warm
    Wet

    jakee308 (d409c2) — 11/1/2014 @ 11:55 pm

  29. #28: given his marriage, i doubt he’s that picky.

    he certainly hasn’t been concerned over the years with “willing” being a requirement.

    redc1c4 (b340a6) — 11/2/2014 @ 12:49 am

  30. Speaking of which.

    Is that a rape whistle Kay Hagan is clutching?

    papertiger (c2d6da) — 11/2/2014 @ 1:56 am

  31. I salute you for not linking Politico. They are hack propagandists, all of the founding principals were charter members of Ezra Klein’s original back-channel leftist propaganda cabal, the “Journolist,” which he recently admitted never really went away. They agreed to use the same take on controversial stories to portray them favorably for Democrats and liberals generally and Obama specifically. Goebbels would be proud of their efforts.

    Estragon (ada867) — 11/2/2014 @ 1:30 am

  32. As to Clinton coming in for Hagan, it may do more for him and Hillary than for her.

    Generally speaking, endorsements have almost no measurable effect in any race. It doesn’t matter who endorses – Reagan, Clinton, a newspaper, a sports hero – it just doesn’t change any votes at all.

    –

    If North Carolina reelects this crooked Obamabot, they deserve all the ridicule they get.

    Old Virginia joke: What’s the best thing to ever come out of North Carolina?

    Answer: An empty bus!

    Estragon (ada867) — 11/2/2014 @ 1:35 am

  33. Most beloved president ever!

    Patricia (5fc097) — 11/2/2014 @ 5:13 am

  34. LOL.

    DNF (384f70) — 11/2/2014 @ 5:29 am

  35. Will this cigar be for sale on eBay?
