- Two for the price of one was the topic of letters to the editor, talk shows,
- pundits and commentators at one time or another. It was a topic that early
- in the campaign that the Clinton Camp found would not fly. Hillary then
- went "underground" so to speak not long after she insulted many women with
- her "cookie" comment. As an aside her speech to the graduating class of
- 92 at her alma mater as shown on C-Span was "wimpy". So "wimpy" she should
- have stayed home.
-
- Now she is comming above ground with an office in the White House being given
- a position of "power" and "control" over policy. I believe it is againist the
- law for the president to appoint a spouse to a position in the government, so
- the Clitons will "skirt" the law by making the position unpaid. (Did he take
- an oath to uphold an protect the Constitution? I guess with Yuppies they can
- "redefine" anything they want.)
-
- Hillery will be a problem. Not because she is a women but because she is
- Hillery. Many people don't like her, the find her offensive, and that is
- without much national attention to her personality and beliefs. I believe
- she will cause problems for Clinton where none would exist without her.
- The public is pissed and I for one do not feel the Clinton's have a clue
- as to why. They listen to special interests of their choice and those
- special interests are of the social engineering type. With all the hype
- about being for the common person they will not listen to them.
-
- Not being on the White House staff, Hillery will cause problem because she
- does not have an official position. Will she butt in to other area's of
- operation that are headed by others? If so will she have the right to
- veto the suggestions and policy of others? Where does she fit in the
- chain of command? Will Congress be able to call her to testitfy? What if
- she breaks the law in her zeal? What if she fails? One would think that
- this was not well thought out.
-
- The press and feminist women have jacked her up with their expectations.
- No one knows if she can live up to it. Remember she was not elected
- nor appointed, she has her job only because she is Mrs. Bill Clinton,
- no more no less. She did not get it of her own volition unless it was
- through private talks with Bill. They took a big risk that they did not
- have to.
-
- The press and the feminst have made Hillery to be the first "First Lady"
- to ever do anything of value. (Much like the whine they make about when
- will a women be on the National Ticket. Like they don't remember Mondale's
- running mate. Her idenity seems to have been forgotton). I have two words
- for those of that belief. Eleanor Roosevelt. Hillery may have done much
- in her life but she is pale to Eleanor Roosevelt. Of course selective
- reading of history is the forte of the feminist, Yuppie and PC devotee.
-
- Well the deed is done and their is not much anyone can do to stop it.
- Clinton would not have got elected had he made public that Hillery was
- going to be Co-President. Their will be much resentment about this
- and it may be one of the many things to bring down his administration
- and those associated with him and Hillery.
-
- I just wonder if Hillery will be anything but a rock around Bill's neck.
