Bill Clinton's redemption is complete. Nearly a year after the former president negotiated the release of two Current TV reporters in North Korea, one of them, Laura Ling, has honored Clinton by naming her new baby after him.

According to People's Cynthia Wang, Ling gave birth to a girl, Li Jefferson Clayton, on Wednesday night in Burbank, Calif. (The father is Ling's husband, financial analyst Iain Clayton.)

I thought it was interesting they had to point out who the father was ... were they afraid everyone would think Clinton was the father? LOL

“Slick Willie Ling?”

I caught that on liberty in Korea, myself.

Antibiotics took care of it.

“Nearly a year after the former president negotiated the release of two Current TV reporters in North Korea...”

I’d lake to hear the specific logistics of this bit of alleged brilliant statesmanship from the ever oily Clinton. Like Carter’s infamous Mid-East Peace Accords, I’ll bet it involved cash out of my pocket.

I was struck by that also, that they had to mention that her husband was the baby’s father.

Considering Bill Clinton’s reputation, I’m sure many would wonder why she would name her baby with Clinton in mind.
