It’s Morning in the Clinton Household
by George Dienhart
In typical fashion, the Clintons have been caught in a lie, again. Maybe lie isn’t the right word. Massive campaign of deception might be a better description. Look at this picture. Yes, that’s who you think it is. Chicago’s biggest political star- Tony Rezko.
Hillary did tell Matt Lauer "I don’t know the man, wouldn’t know him if he walked in the door, I don’t have a 17 year relationship with him…" Hmmmmm. Could there be more to the story?
Something interesting did pop up in my search for campaign contributions. Mr. Rezko donated money to Rick Lazio.
Rick Lazio is barely a footnote in history. He was the sacrificial lamb that the NY GOP offered up when Rudy Giuliani couldn’t run against Sen. Clinton for the NY Senate seat she currently holds.
Now, the Clintons are nothing if not vindictive. They would not have taken this picture post Hillary’s Senate campaign. Clinton guests are well vetted. Tony would not have made it in after giving that much money to Lazio. This is most likely a fifteen year old embaressment of a non-story. However, it is an entertaining story. I would have paid to see the look on the Clinton’s faces when this story broke. A junior staffer would have been sent to break the news. No one wants to be on the wrong end of a Clinton Temper tantrum. I can envision the whole conversation.
The young woman would walk in tentatively- she knows what’s about to happen and is none to happy about being forced to “take one for the team.”
“Ah, Mr. President”
“Yes?” Answer both Bill and Hill.
“I have some bad news-"
Hillary immediately casts a disparaging look at Bill. This is all too familiar. In the Clinton household, bad news has a name and it’s name is Monica, Gennifer, or for that matter, a cast of thousands.
The staffer is now uncomfortable- she can se that Mt St. Hillary is about to blow. She continues
“There’s this picture…”
“Damn it Bill! Can’t you keep it zipped up-“
“No ma’am, it’s not that again!” quickly offers the staffer. “It’s a picture of you”
Bill starts to smile smugly at this point. He is of the hook.
“and Mr. Clinton”
“D’oh!” slips out of Bill’s mouth as attention is once again diverted his way. No one expects what comes next.
“and Tony Rezko”
An angry Hill grabs a coffee pot and Bill instinctively ducks, but the improvised missile is not headed his way. Wesley Clark and Sandy Berger narrowly escape the piping hot, full bodied flavor of Hillary’s wrath.
“I just hit Obama on this same topic! How did we get caught with our pants down on this?”
At this point, there is an uncomfortable silence as everyone looks at Bill, as is human nature when making “pants down” remarks. Hillary angrily storms out of the room, followed by her top advisors, leaving the lowly staffer alone with a former President.
“Hey, baby. Ever smoke a cigar?”
The young woman now runs out of the room. Her career is important, but she’s not going to take that for the team…
