Guesses as to the gifts that are on the bridal registry?

Here are a few picks for Bubba's daughter to throw at the new hubby, just like dear ol' Mom:

And for the unfortunate groom, a close-encounters-of-the-sex-kind rescue kit:

'Guesses as to the gifts that are on the bridal registry? '

A bridle? Salt lick? A bale of hay? Sack of oats? A four-pack of hand-forged wedding shoes? C'mon, give us a hint..........

"But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: for men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away, for his name is Obama."

I was going to request people give her a break too. After all, when they were in the WH, she was always the Clinton I had the most respect for, even when she was a little girl.

But it's too tempting an opportunity, so I suppose people should have at it if it makes them happy. Actually, as retiring as she is, I seriously doubt she requested a five million dollar wedding.

Thanks to that singular comment, now I'm not sure I want the wife to give me any tonight, even after an evening swim and a hot shower.

Does it smell like stale hay in here to you?

Considering the Clintons' “Gay-Friendly” attitude, I'm surprised the inbreds at Westboro (anti)Baptist (Satanic) Church haven't announced a protest at Chelsie's wedding ceremony or reception.

After all, they are sincere in their convictions and their venues aren't politically motivated, right?

Chelsie was raised by two vulgar commies. She heard them refer to the Secret Service Agents assigned to protect her as "Trained Pigs."

Unfortunately, they poured this toxic garbage into her and now it's part of her. I feel some sympathy for Chelsie; but, now it's up to her to form her own attitudes and opinions. I pray she gets a wake up call.

What DID happen to poor old Webb? What is he doing now?

Like many of the lesser liked clinton acquaintances, he’s pushing up daises. That’s the kind of thing that happens when one is left naked in a prison cell without the medication needed to survive.

He missed his daughters big day.

Tents costing $600,000 have been set up, $100,000 is going on tables and crockery and a staggering $500,000 is being spent on flowers, thought to be Casablanca lillies and orchids.

Miss Clinton’s dress, designed by Oscar de la Renta or Vera Wang, is rumoured to be a cool $24,000, and the jewellery she wears on the day is worth $250,000. The cake alone will cost $10,000 !!!!!!!!!!!

Chelsea's new step-dad Ed Mezvinsky is finally our of jail, (after an 7 year sentence,) Did you read about that anywhere else in all the wedding coverage???) ----

so now is your chance to read up on all the sordid details of his 20+ years long history of financial fraud of his friends and clients ---

and the $10,000,000 that he netted ---

after FAILING to cheat the Nigerians out of their money first!!!!

Who in the world has NOT heard of Nigerian scams ???

How dumb could this ex-Congressman possibly be?

Yet note that both Mezvinsky jr. and Chelsea Victoria jr went to Stanford University (when she wasn't falling down drunk at her many parties in London).

Does anyone here really think either of these two is intellectually qualified to go to Stanford U ???

Can we see their SAT scores ???

Thought not.

-------------------------------------

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2558600/posts

Her new step-dad was so GREEDY that he tried to scam the Nigerians !!!

When that failed (many times), then he scammed his own friends and family and clients out of $10,000,000!!!

---------------------------------

Link to archive copy of DesMoines Register

Prosecutors later would call Mezvinsky a one-man "crime wave" and said they uncovered elements of fraud in nearly every business deal of his dating to 1980. "We didn't even bother to look back farther," said Assistant U.S. Attorney Robert Zauzmer

He is 66 and serving the beginning of an 80-month sentence in federal prison for numerous charges, including bank, wire and mail fraud. He took people's money - more than $10 million - in elaborate lies and schemes.

-------------------

Chelsea's New Family:

If reports are true that Chelsea Clinton and her boyfriend Marc Mezvinsky are considering marriage, the father of the groom won't be able to attend the wedding until he is released from prison in November 2008.

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2558600/posts

Ed Mezvinsky, a former Democratic Congressman from Iowa, is serving a seven-year sentence for fraud after getting caught up in a series of Nigerian e-mail scams.

Initially, Mezvinsky became the victim of "just about every different kind of African-based scam we've ever seen," federal prosecutor Bob Zauzmer told 20/20 for a report to be broadcast this evening.

• But then, says Zauzmer, Mezvinsky began to steal from clients and even his own mother-in-law to raise the money to try yet another scheme.

• "He was always looking for the home run. He was always trying to find the business deal that would make him as wealthy as all the people in his social circle," said Zauzmer.

After leaving Congress, Mezvinsky moved to Philadelphia's Main Line suburbs with his wife Marjorie Margolies, a former television reporter, who won a seat in Congress herself as a Democratic congresswomen from Pennsylvania.

"They were seen as people of means; they were a legitimate power couple," said Gar Joseph, a political columnist for the Philadelphia Daily News.

The Mezvinkskys were also close to Bill and Hillary Clinton and were frequent guests at White House state dinners.

Prosecutors say Mezvinsky used his connections to the Clintons and his son's social relationship with Chelsea to persuade people to give him money to participate in the scams.

Mezvinsky traveled to Nigeria numerous times and ultimately lost more than $3 million as a victim of the scammers.

Prosecutors say Mezvinsky fell particularly hard for what is known as the "black money" scam.  Victims are told millions of dollars have been coated with black ink so the money could be smuggled out of Nigeria.

http://blogs.abcnews.com/theblotter/2006/12/father_of_chels.html

The scammers then offer to sell a special, expensive chemical to remove the black ink so the currency can be used.

Prosecutors say Mezvinsky fell for at least three separate "black money" schemes that he thought would bring him millions.

Mezvinsky declined requests sent to him in prison to speak with ABC.

--------------

But consider that the unsaid details are extremely interesting:

Both mom and dad were Congressmen, from different states!!!

Prosecutors say EVERY deal step-dad ever did since 1980 had fraud within it.

$10,000,000 stolen !!!

So, who is paying for this wedding and what money is being used?

Step-dad’s fine was “only” $3,000,000” so clear net profit is $7,000,000.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

I wonder, I wonder,

Bill, Hillary, step-dad, bernie madoff, I guess this is how people have $5,000,000 weddings in modern America.

All bow down to our new rulers!

Or perhaps the money came from the “hedge fund” where C works and for which she went to bat in Congress for (and where she got laughed at for trying it).

Has she fallen down drunk lately?

Ordered any more $25,000 bottles of wine lately???

BTW

Do you KNOW anyone who drinks $25,000 bottles of wine or has $5,000,000 weddings?

I don’t.
