Still hawking her book overseas, Hillary Clinton appeared on The Graham Norton Show and cracked a joke about former President George H.W. Bushs health, and referred to President Trumps inauguration speech as some weird shit.
Hillary was asked about attending Trumps inauguration, and she claims she and Bill tried to get out of it a statement that contradicts what she said only days ago.
I really tried to get out of going, she said. I was going not as the candidate or as the opponent, but as a former first lady.
She said its tradition for Republican and Democratic former presidents and first ladies appear, but acknowledged she wanted to break that.
So we thought may others arent going. So we called the Bushes and the elder Bushes were in the hospital, which I think was legitimate, she said, triggering laughs from the audience.
On January 18 three days before the inauguration NPR reported, The elder Bush was admitted to the hospital over the weekend and sent to the intensive care unit at Houston Methodist Hospital in Texas on Wednesday as he battles pneumonia.
Hilarious, Hillary.
She then acknowledged that George W. Bush, and Jimmy Carter both said they were going.
So Bill and I looked at each other and said, Well, we gotta go, Hillary said.
She said she was so sad Trumps speech wasnt an outreach.
It was reported George W. Bush, as it ends, said, That was some weird shit,' she said, triggering more laughs.
During a recent appearance on The Late Late Show on Irelands RTÉ One, Clinton claimed it was her duty to appear, saying nothing about trying to get out of it.
Speaking about the difficulty of being on the Inauguration platform as a first lady, Clinton said she had to consciously watch her actions.
It was our turn to walk our to a crowd that I thought would be hostile to me because it was largely well, it wasnt a large crowd, she laughed, landing a petty dig at the audience size.
And then going down the steps and just trying to summon up my internal fortitude to be in the moment and to be appropriate. Not be caught making faces or doing something like that, she said.
Or rolling your eyes, the interviewer interjected, which she affirmed.
i didnt want that to happen, she said.
Did you want to scream? he asked.
Oh, I did, but that was a common occurrence in those days you know, scream into the pillow when I saw what was happening, she continued.
Did you ever scream into the pillow? she was asked.
Oh yes! Clinton exclaimed, adding it felt good.

Nothing so endears you to your countrymen as going overseas and bad mouthing the President for your own personal gain. As classy as dropping trousers in the oval office to get serviced by an intern. But I digress ...

Hitlery and her daughter Gruesome were on vacation in North Africa riding camels when she heard of the Serbian onslaught against the Muslim population. She immediately grabbed a phone and called Bill and told him that he didn't want to be remembered as the president who did nothing while Serbs were engaged in Muslim cleansing. Within short order after he zipped up his pants after masturbating into the oval office sink, he gave the historical order and NATO began bombing Yugoslavia.
What success. A bridge was destroyed, a kid on a bicycle killed and the Chinese embassy was blown up.
Nobody talks about this success of the dynamic duo.

You have to wonder if this can pump up the sales of her sad-ass book. I think not.
I think she actually diminishes herself this way. If there is a major policy controversy, she's less likely to be heard. She would have done better to keep quiet and saved her ammo. She can't be making enough off this book to make it worth diluting her brand's power. It also tends to shut off any chances for a comeback in the 2020 Dem primary.

I recall seeing Ann Coulter several times over on MSNBC, giving them fits by repeated references of "Billy Bob rushing to the sink for relief".
They really hated it. ; )

Uh,huh! I have long suspected as much,given she is married to Bubba Bill.
I suspect she had a few drinks before the show,and told more than she intended to tell.

Hillary is cultivating the EuroWeenie "Dream Student" mail-in ballots, for 2020.
