The Unfair Advantage of Forty-Two and a Half

Nobody’s Opinion: One thing that no one has brought up about the Democratic debates is the unfair advantage Hillary Clinton has over the other nominees. Not only is she running for President, but so it seems is her husband.

After all, they have always claimed, that when it comes to a Clinton Presidency, you get two for one. That’s why Hillary feels justified in claiming experience on everything that happened during Bill’s Presidency, they were not joking when they made this comment.

Let’s just give Hillary the benefit of the doubt. Let’s say she did rule the United States with Bill Clinton in every decision that was made during his time as President. If that was so, it was illegal…because she was not on the ticket as co-President. Last time I looked, only one person could run for that office.

This “two for one” theory was brought out this past Thanksgiving holiday when Bill Clinton, in one opportunistic grab, got on two of the most watched shows in the nation, David Letterman and Oprah Windfrey.

With Obama’s rating passing Hillary’s in Iowa, Bill needed to remind people just who was going to be President, again.

Proving more that Hillary is unelectable without her husband.

Does everyone remember when Hillary Clinton gave her announcement on running for the Senate on the David Letterman show? He had a major heart attack the next day. From that day forth he has been almost like an obsequious sycophant, panting like a well- trained watchdog every time they are near.

And when “President” (as he likes to be called) Bill took up the whole hour Wednesday night, Lettermen carefully read the given scripted questions. Bill had trouble taking his eyes off his own image in the monitor.

And you thought it was all ad-libed.

Bill started with the “I went to the cradle of Africa where I watched a female lion take a wart hog and snap it’s neck while the male just watched.” Yes---Hillary the Lioness, will snap the neck of anyone who dares cross her.

I personally found Bill’s statement of “So much for peace in our time.” rather chilling, Many of his close friends lamented that Bill did not get to show his true stuff during a war…a war like FDR had---darn it.

Then Letterman asked if he would consider the Vice Presidency. Bill assures the public that because of the constitution he would be against this sort of power grab.

Again, the lawyer plays with words--- I said “VP” not “is!”

Sadly, this kind of spin will work on many an idiot. He wants us all to think that he wouldn’t dream of grabbing power, sitting in on every meeting with Hillary. Noooo…he will just a little happy puppy fetching international bones.

Right, and don’t forget---“The Price is Right!” It’s two for one Wal-Mart voters!

And “President” Bill would like to see John McCain run against Hillary because it would be a respectable race. Oh, and it was Bill who helped Rudy out on 9/11.

Rudy couldn’t have done it without Bill. (Yeah, right.)

On Iraq, Bill states, “I would build up the military. Ours is in shambles.” Then he went on to describe in full detail how many troops are deployed, and exactly where.

And this is who you want as co-President again? Someone who was offered bin Laden six times? Someone who dismantled entire bases, and destroyed the military so badly they couldn’t even train with live bullets?

This is hardly the “get out of Iraq” that the Democrats are looking for. Not only is Bill telling conservatives that Hillary is not going to get out of Iraq, old Forty-two and a half might actually welcome a WWIII, something which Bush says he is trying to prevent.

Then great news! If we would throw out all our old light bulbs for the new ones--- everyone utilities bills would come down, and we could close 88 coal plants, putting even more Americans out of work!

Letterman ended with a big plug for Bill’s “Giving” book which is basically a warm-up to sell the fantasy that you will feel really good when Hillary grabs all your money to redistribute to the world.

If Forty-two and his half keep this up, don’t be surprised when on Christmas Eve…they suddenly appear on Jay Leno dressed as the Forty-Four and a half, Mr. and Mrs Santa Claus.

The big snow-job is coming.
