Hillary and the abandonment of Socks the Cat...
« on: October 21, 2007, 10:16:15 AM »
Turns out the cat was just a prop, foisted on someone else after the term in the White House was over.

Cold b___, isn't she?

Quote
As the first pet of the Clinton era, Socks, the White House cat, allowed chilly Hillary Clinton to show a caring, maternal side as well as bringing joy to her daughter Chelsea. So where is Socks today?

Once the presidency was over, there was no room for Socks anymore. After years of loyal service at the White House, the black and white cat was dumped on Betty Currie, Bill Clintons personal secretary, who also had an embarrassing clean-up role in the saga of his relationship with intern Monica Lewinsky.

I tend not to trust anyone that treats a pet as a prop or fashion accessory. In her case, I expect it.

So she's NOT a cat person?  I might vote for her after all.

Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

I'd have figured, all those years being married to Bill, she'd be a bit more tolerant of a little pussy on the side.   grin

Speaking as a leader among the pagan community, I take offense at that. 













I would never allow Mrs. Clinton to attend a Samhain-Midnight-Graveyard-Sacrifice ritual.  One must have standards, after all.  grin

Seek out wisdom in books, rare manuscripts, and cryptic poems if you will, but seek it also in simple stones and fragile herbs and in the cries of wild birds. Listen to the song of the wind and the roar of water if you would discover magic, for it is here that the old secrets are still preserved.
