Scranton Rodham history question
BigLittle

Posted on 03/24/2008 6:59:00 AM PDT by BigLittle

Hillary's ancestors running a brothel?


TOPICS: Politics/Elections
KEYWORDS: hillary; prostitution; scranton
So, I saw Hillary on tv this morning, touting her family history in Scranton PA. I recall reading that her grandparents or great grandparents ran a brothel there, but couldn't find any google links to that. Do any Freepers recall or have information to that end? If so, did Spitzers ancestors frequent there?

I thought that was in D.C. in the 90’s.

I think the address of the brothel was 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW, Washington, DC 20500

That’s actually how Hillary met Bill. She was the towel girl.

Was Hillary ducking gunfire again?

I’m very proud of the fact that my ancestor’s half sister and her husband ran the first brothel on Manhattan Island. We know quite a bit about her since she was Theadore Roosevelt’s 6th great grandmother - for example, she used to go down to the peer and moon the incoming ships to bring in business.

I’m sure they were visited by many a Manhattan hand.

Laugh on, you fools. Hillary braved sniper fire at the Scranton Airport this morning. That "brothel?" Actually an early intelligence gathering operation. Pioneer union leaders needed the capitalists' "pillow talk" in order to formulate strategery.

Anyway, it has nothing to do with Hillary now. Back then she was working the swing shift at a coal mine and prepping for Wellesley during the day, which was very difficult for a black woman in those days of a white-male dominated Pennsylvania (even named for a dead white male!).

Aw, c'mon, don't be so naive. The Clinton campaign made up this story to attract the all-important hooker vote. Leave no demographic unturned!!

She’s the Yankee-fan, sniper-dodging, mountain-climber namesake, gospel-sister, arafat-lovin’, Israel-supportin’, Nafta-opposin’, whorehouse prodigy, women’s activist with 35 years’ experience. Dontcha know?

OH yeah, left out: she was shocked, shocked, I tell ya’ when Bill told her about Monica.

LOL. How right you are.

Bill J. Clinton: steadiest customer.
