Does Bill Clinton take seriously his anticipated responsibilities as First Gentleman?
For example, when was the last time he took a cooking class? When was the last time he baked cookies?

1. Bill's not planning on baking cookies. He thinks he'll get to be a shadow President
Bill thinks he'll get to be a shadow President like Cheney and not be accountable to anyone for anything. That's another thing that bothers me about him getting back in the White House.

2. As long as he doesn't wear a low cut gown or one cut up to there,
I'm all right with it.

(I'm not against cross dressing, I just don't think he has the figure for it!)

3. When was the last time Laura did or Hillary did when she was first lady?
Typical Obama supporter just looking for something ridiculous to post.

5. Thankfully, we learned tonight that sexism is not a factor in this election.

I might have taken this fine discussion in the wrong way.

Joking is alwhens* better than whining.
