Actually, I think liberal use of “you know” has the same root as liberal use of “ummm”, namely that the speaker has trouble organizing thoughts and putting them into words fast enough to speak with continuous content at a normal pace.

WTF is glamourous about Skeletor?

She's a member of the highest caste of the Liberal Elite. THAT makes her 'glamorous' and peons like you and I are not supposed to question the natural order of things when faced with the shining visages of our Divinely Appointed Rulers.

This whole Caroline issue is really stupid. What happened to Nita Lowy, the woman who has worked her way up through NY politics and wanted to run for Senator, but got a visit from Hillary and decided not to?

Mahat, I dispute the glamour part. She is worth over 100 million...she couldn’t drop by the CVS and pick up some Oil of Olay?

And the ‘rearing’ quote...what no nannies or domestic staff? We are to believe that hausfrau Schlosssssssburg has been toiling away, Swiffering the Park Avenue Penthouse all these years? No. She is not the average American mom. Whoever in Kennedy camp who came up with this cockamamie plan, should be fired.

It all comes down to the Kennedy Quota in the US Senate that must be upheld. Of her generation’s cousins, I will concede that Sweet Caroline is probably the only one who could pass a drug test.

I suppose that is better than being a model for rear-entry women.

Yeah, all of you multi-millionaire women, here is how you get back into the job market.

I'm going to have my wife look into this.

“If you strip away the glamor, the name and the money, then Caroline is ... me. And many of my friends.” I'm sure just like this woman, Caroline had Nannies raising her kids. The Manhattan “Elites” idea of a diaper change is to tell the Nannie from what ever country is the flavor of the day to do it. They can't understand why Sarah Palin actually raises her kids with her Hubby. To them it's not cool to act like a real regular person. So we get attacks on Sarah and butt kissing of Caroline.

Barney Frank and Jim McGreevey: Currently among the most prominent, um, re-entry politicians.

Caroline certainly does buy Oil of Olay and she gets it delivered right to the compound in Hyannis. Oh, and here comes her next delivery now...

Oil of Olay

And it ain't enough.

Actually, the Skeletor moniker has (rightfully) been assigned for years, to Mr. Jennifer Lopez. Marc Anthony reigns as media Skeletor.

I believe we need a more creative tag for Frau Schlosssssssburg.

BS. The ‘re-entry’ women I know couldn’t just say they wanted a certain job when they were ready to go back to work or switch careers. Sometimes they had to go back to school, sometimes they had to take an entry level job in order to get a foot in the door, sometimes they had to volunteer to build up a network of contacts.

I hate to play the race card here, because I’m sure Caroline Kennedy does NOT resonate with most white women, but only a middle class white woman would compare herself to a rich white woman who never had to do a thing in her life and say, ‘hey, she’s just like me!’ Dim women are just so...dim.

I never thought of the US Senate as a re-entry position. Maybe I could give it a shot after working 5 years before marriage and kids in mortgage loans at a couple of Savings and Loans! I’ve only been out of the job market for 30 years, but hey, I’ve been Class Mom, PTA President, on the School Board of our kids’ Catholic School, and on the Parish Council. I’m just as qualified at Caroline, right? ;o)

Glusker's column was basically narcissist: "I can only talk about me and my own concerns. I'm writing about Caroline Kennedy. And, hey, she's me, too."

But I think the media has gotten enough mileage out of Caroline's "seat," so now they're floating "re-entry women" as another attention-catching double-entendre.
