STAN FREBERG HERE...Making Fun of Hillary
Stan Freberg here. The First Lady, Hillary Clinton, has come in for her share of kidding. I guess it goes with the territory, you know. Be right back. [:60 SPOT BREAK]
Freberg here. In a new book by Bob Woodward, he reveals that Hillary Clinton regularly has sessions with a kind of "new age" advisor, who claims that Hillary has carried on conversations with the late Eleanor Roosevelt. The cartoonists will have a field day with that one.
Apparently, Hillary asked Eleanor's advice on certain things and, according to Woodward, Eleanor advises her. Has a little seance, huh? Too bad she didn't advise Hillary to be sure no damaging Whitewater files were left on her sitting room table, or F.B.I. files on Republicans "A" through "G" weren't on the premises.
Political cartoonists regularly kid Hillary. Mike Smith of the Las Vegas Sun, in a cartoon, kids the trend to blame Hillary for everything. In a satiric map of the famous assassination site in Dalls, he shows the open convertible with the Kennedys going by; little signs with arrows are labeled "Presidential Motorcade," "Oswald at School Book Repository," and "Hillary at Grassy Knoll."
Finally, even in a paper in the Clinton's home state, John Deering of the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette in Little Rock, shows the Clintons riding in the back of their limo. Bill is saying to Hillary, "No, no, I turned off the coffee. I thought you turned off the shredder!"
