Clinton plays flight attendant in campaign plane spoof Wed Jan 16, 2008 7:55pm EST
By Jeff Mason
LAS VEGAS (Reuters) - Hillary Clinton, flight attendant? Not exactly, but the Democratic presidential hopeful did impersonate one briefly on Wednesday as her new campaign plane made its first voyage with journalists, staff and the candidate herself on board.
"Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen and welcome aboard the maiden flight of Hil Force One" said the former first lady, startling reporters on the flight from Las Vegas to Reno, Nevada. Air Force One is the name of the plane that carries the U.S. president.
"My name is Hillary and I am so pleased to have most of you on board," she said over the loud speaker, an oblique reference to her sometimes contentious relationship with the media.
Clinton had been traveling on a chartered jet, with reporters relegated to a separate media plane or commercial flights. Now, with the race for the Democratic nomination going nationwide, the campaign has put the full entourage on one aircraft.
Clinton parodied the speech that flight attendants give at the onset of a trip.
"FAA (Federal Aviation Administration) regulations prohibit the use of any cell phones, BlackBerrys, or wireless devices that may be used to transmit a negative story about me," the New York senator said.
"And in the event of an unexpected drop in poll numbers, this plane will be diverted to New Hampshire," Clinton said, recalling her victory there over rival Barack Obama last week, despite polls that predicted the Illinois senator would win.

Other than the fact that she’s a complete joke of a human being, there’s nothing even remotely funny about her.
In other words, go back, not forward.
After 8 years of hostility and hatred (from the left), wouldn’t be nice for everyone to get along and laugh and have fun??
Gee, we really need the Clintons back in the WH.
(Do I really need a sarc tag?)
By gum, there’s a real knee slapper if ever I heard one. I bet she’s the life of the party.
there’s a joke here somewhere.....
how’s this...
“Coffee, tea or a vomit bag”
or
It ain’t “Fly Me”. No Fn way.
And please don’t divert back to New Hampshire. We’re finally shed of the treacherous beeyotch and we want it to stay that way.
Oh, Hitlery, you’re such a card. Gag me with a spoon.
Feh.
Hillary has never “played” at anything. Even Barbies at the age of ten involved depositions of Ken and declarations of gender equity. Anyone who disagreed on her barbie roll playing had to play dead in the local public park.
Does the mile high club count if she’s a ....
oh never mind.
Did Bill put his hand on her lap?
Maa’m: I have a question. It appears that you and I could not pass down the aisle at the same time.....
Right here:
My first thought—re-enacting the video of Bildo grabbing the stewie on one of his campaign flights in 1992.
Hil would only play that role if Huma played Bildo.
That Hillary is a riot, though. Her monologue was so funny I almost—shed a tear.
She should have offered to iron the shirts to make the joke complete.

No doubt, this is merely the first of a cascade of stories on this.
What the heck next? A female impersonation?
