BILL Clinton is looking for interns - 25, to be exact. It's been 10 years since the ex-president faced impeachment over his dalliance with the world's most famous intern, Monica Lewinsky. But now the William F. Clinton Foundation has posted an Internet job listing for unpaid interns.

"If you are an undergraduate, graduate or professional student or a recent graduate with your own strong interest in crucial issues of our day, the Clinton Foundation Intern Program offers a unique opportunity for growth, learning and meaningful service."

Even if it's just delivering pizza. If 25 seems like a lot of interns, they'll be spread out between Clinton's HQ in Harlem, his library in Little Rock, Ark., and a third office in Quincy, Mass.

His spokesman said, "I'm not sure why it's surprising that President Clinton's multimillion dollar foundation - that among many other accomplishments provides AIDS treatment drugs to over 250,000 people around the world - would have interns."

If you are an undergraduate, graduate or professional student

Now, what exactly is a "professional student" -- someone who takes classes but never plans on earning a degree? And does this "professional student" career lead naturally into a career as a professional intern?

Just wondering!

Note to Bill's spokesperson: You should have used a different phrase here, like maybe "unpaid volunteers," if you wanted to avoid being on Page Six of the NY Post!

So far, it's not 72 Virgins. Oh, shoot! They are taken.

[Bon mots]

Hmmm... reminds me of Camelot - the Clinton years... hmmm... did I spell that right... er...

I had to chuckle when I read this...

Big-boner Bill is like a wine stain on a cashmere blouse--so hard to (make) go away.

Yes, well, I guess their love/ lust/ whatever did not stand the test of time. But, I do think it's good that Bill Clinton is now trying to raise the profile of the childhood obesity problem.

Gee Bill, we got 72 of them for islam, bet we can get "25" for interns. Here is her picture...

[catfish1957]

Yeah they will find that unique opportunity for growth....in his pants!!!!!

Now, what exactly is a "professional student" -- someone who takes classes but never plans on earning a degree?

Yes,that's what a "professional student" is.Just picture a guy like Howie Dean (trust fund and all) who lacks the lust for power.

[the invisib1e hand]

the truth is stranger than fiction...is that the right cliche here? does it adequately express my complete and utter incredulity that this freaking disgraced embodiment of evil dares to pull such a stunt?

[Atlas Sneezed]

Professional student= law, med, or biz student, etc.

[scrabblehack]

The "25 interns" is possibly an old trick -- used to attract more applicants. It could be legit as well.

I don't know if Kathleen Willey was a professional student or not,but was unpaid, as I recall. The Clinton White House would beat the drum daily getting the unpaid to continue working for the cause.

Nothing can be written about B Clinton and interns without sullying the mind of the reader:

If you are an undergraduate, graduate or professional student or a recent graduate with your own strong interest in crucial issues of our day

If 25 seems like a lot of interns

they'll be spread out between Clinton's HQ in Harlem, his library in Little Rock, Ark., and a third office in Quincy, Mass

Any of the above could be the basis of lengthy essays about Clinton and his impact on the moral foundation of our country. Or, Jay Leno, David Letterman and Jon Stewart could develop sketches around any of them. So sad that this man was actually elected--twice!--to the most important position in the worldl Just unbelievable.

Qualifications,

Low morals
Low self esteem
Lack of fear of venereal disease

Subject to intense vetting by the missus.

That is not Slick Willie. It may be a Bill Clinton (William) but it is not Slick.

My Eyes, My Eyes!!!

Delivering pizza, indeed! I can imagine that....

"Woohoo honey, y'all ever played 'hide the pepperoni'? Yeeehaw"!;)

[tsmith130]

That is not Slick Willie. It may be a Bill Clinton (William) but it is not Slick.

I'm not sure what you mean. It clearly says:

"I'm not sure why it's surprising that President Clinton's multimillion dollar foundation - that among many other accomplishments provides AIDS treatment drugs to over 250,000 people around the world - would have interns."

Unless there was another 'President Clinton' that I'm unaware of, that's slick.
