Hillar-ity: Wolfson Opens Mouth, Inserts Foot
Hillar-ity: Wolfson Opens Mouth, Inserts Foot - and Anne Kornblut of the Washington Post doesn't take it out. She had to be laughing when she used a particular quote from Clinton campaign spokesman Howard Wolfson. The point of the entire article is that any reference to husband Bill's previous personal behavior while in office will suffer the wrath of the Clinton political machine.
Cut to Clinton spokesman Wolfson.
They declared her husband's impeachment in 1998 -- or, more accurately, the embarrassing personal behavior that led to it -- taboo, putting her rivals on notice and all but daring other Democrats to mention the ordeal again.
"In the end, voters will decide what's off-limits, but I can't imagine that the public will reward the politics of personal destruction," senior Clinton adviser Howard Wolfson said Friday, when asked whether the impeachment is fair game for Clinton's opponents. Earlier in the week, Wolfson dismissed references to President Bill Clinton's conduct as "under the belt."
"I can't imagine that the public will reward the politics of personal destruction"

"under the belt"
Isn't that where Bill keeps his cigar.

The AP has declared Mitt Romney's great-grandfather in play. Well so is Mrs. Clinton's husband.

BobinBethel, no one could say you can't produce sentences. The problem is each one has an insult in it. This is not a rhetorical tactic that helps convince nor impress people. Why don't you try another way?

Sounds like Bob/Carl/Artie managed to pull his pud so hard it trashed his keyboard.
