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.) The baby's first name, Li, is a nod to Ling's sister Lisa, a former co-host of "The View," and Jefferson is Clinton's middle name.

Hmmm, just don’t tell the girl that she is named after Bill Clinton, or parenting could become very difficult.

“Dear, is your room clean?”
“It depends on the meaning of the word ‘is.’”

“I mean, are your clothes picked up off the floor?”
“It meets the legal definition of the word clean.”

“I don’t want to get angry. Let me see if the room is clean.”
“I think we have spent far too much time on this issue and I need to get back to the work of being a ten year-old.”

That’s pretty repulsive naming a girl after a man who treats women so horribly.

Me: I bet everyone calls him Jeff

rightwingintelligentsia: The baby is a girl.

OOOPS!! That's really funny. OK, I guess they will call her "Li", hopefully pronounced Lee. This is the in the Linda and Lisa tradition of the Chinese side of the family.

I will go out on a limb and tell a good ethnic joke (this was told to me by my 12 year old Chinese daughter, so don't get your shorts in a bunch).

Q: How do Chinese parents name their children?

A: They throw pots and pans down the stairs.
