Curry does a body good.
WOW! If she's Indian, just call me Choctaw Charlie. Oh, uh, wrong kind.
I'm sure she made quite the impression the first time they met. She probably dresses and acts like any young hot actress Clinton drools over during Hollywood visits.
He replied: "How can a man forget meeting a beautiful woman like you?,"
"now if you'll excuse me, I have a telephone call from Senator 'what's her name ' from New York."
back to work 4 me, but first, Monica Blewinsky described Willie's willie as follows:
"like a thumb".
Or as her mother might have put it, "like a Greek god."
Knowing what he's (allegedly) married to, she probably felt sorry for him;)
I think chicks dug how confident he was and how good he was at chatting them up, given he wasn't a male model by any means. He had success with women long before he was President.
hilllereee the most dependent woman in the world. Lives with adn puts up with the antics of willie. Tell me she isn't hanging onto his coattails! She can't do anything alone so she remains being the "poor little woman" standing by her man as he continues to embarass and bring shame on not only his family but his country.
Clinton...the worst President in the history of the United States.
He probably calls them all "Honey" or "Baby."
Bubba never forgets the top of a womans head.
He said, "How could I forget that I long to see you both in and out of your blue dress? Would you care to do a Monica for me right now?"
What a dunce... I would not be surprised if Clinton has jumped on her too.
Forget it Bill. You don't qualify for this babe. Not enough zeros to your bank balance. This is an eleven figure girl. High elevens.
I bet some pretty women who never has met him, would get the same line, if she asked him if he remembered her.
Bubba = cheap used car salesman
This doesn't mean that he actually remembered her...
This from a man who forgot about having sex with an intern.

Hillary Clinton 'truly regrets' Gandhi joke
Remarks called stereotypical, racially insensitive
ST. LOUIS, Missouri (AP) --Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton apologized for joking that Mahatma Gandhi used to run a gas station in St. Louis, saying it was "a lame attempt at humor."
The New York Democrat made the remark at a fund-raiser Saturday. During an event here for Senate candidate Nancy Farmer, Clinton introduced a quote from Gandhi by saying, "He ran a gas station down in St. Louis."
After laughter from many in the crowd of at least 200 subsided, the former first lady continued, "No, Mahatma Gandhi was a great leader of the 20th century." In a nod to Farmer's underdog status against Republican Sen. Kit Bond, Clinton quoted the Indian independence leader as saying: "First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win."
The director of a U.S. center devoted to Gandhi's teachings called the remarks stereotypical and racially insensitive, while an educator said the flap underscored the need for politicians to be cautious when trying to get laughs.
"Political speeches can't be like episodes of The Simpsons," said David Robertson, a University of Missouri-St. Louis political science professor.
After being approached by The Associated Press to clarify the remarks, Clinton suggested in a statement sent late Monday that she never meant to fuel any stereotype -- often used as a comedic punch line -- that certain ethnic groups were synonymous with operating America's gas stations.
"I have admired the work and life of Mahatma Gandhi and have spoken publicly about that many times," Clinton said in a two-sentence statement. "I truly regret if a lame attempt at humor suggested otherwise."
So does Michelle Naef, administrator of the M.K. Gandhi Institute for Nonviolence, the Memphis, Tennessee-based nonprofit group founded in 1991 by a Gandhi grandson to promote his grandfather's teachings, including nonviolent resistance.
While crediting Clinton and her husband, former President Clinton, as long having "supported the Gandhi message," Naef said Saturday's remarks "could be incredibly harmful" in perpetuating racial myths.
"I don't think she was, in any way, trying to demean Mahatma Gandhi," Naef said. "To be generous to her, I would say it was a poor attempt at humor. Perhaps I'm overly sensitive, but I find it offensive when people use stereotypes in that way."
To Robertson, the professor, the flap demonstrates the potential peril of when humor by politicians falls flat.
"The more prominent the politician, the more they've taken positions on equality in the past as Mrs. Clinton has, the more this is going to be troubling to some people," he said. "It's understandable that groups want to make sure they're treated with complete respect."
When it comes to Hillary Clinton, he said, "there's no reason to think she doesn't admire Gandhi, like so many people do. After all, Gandhi was influential to Martin Luther King Jr., and I know she respects King."

"Clinton smokes cigars dipped in cider"
I used to work in a machine shop and when someone got a cut on their finger people would tell them to "soak it in cider" when they got home that night. :) I haven't heard that one in years!
Wasn't Aishwaria Rai in "Bride and Prejudice"???
Mrs. LoneConservative is Anglo-Indian. Her Dad is From Bangalore, and left India to go to engineering school in England. He met a little blonde from Manchester, and the rest is history.
Over the past 4 years, I've gotten to know of a lot about "Bollywood". Some of the movies are really good- Some, you have to know all of the inside cultural details. We just watched "Second Generation, a BBC production about 2 families- (One Hindu, one Muslim) who own a frozen food business. Lots of big time Indian actors, plus Parminder Nagra, from "Bend it Like Beckham", and "ER".
After watching a rather steamy love scene betwen Nagra and the Muslim boy she wasn't allowed to marry, I commented that "Parminder has some nice Samosas"... Mrs LC wasn't amused.
