Chelsea Clinton- The "Detriments of the Bush Tax Cut ," & Reaction to the WTC Attacks

Washington Post ^ | 11/9/01

[11th Earl of Mar]

"I am still unsure about what Humpty Dumpty represented to me on that day, because I do not subscribe to -- and I even resent -- the theory that America's arrogance, even indirectly, led to the attacks. It just seemed as though the world were falling down, like Humpty Dumpty."

[Arizona]

Chelsea just made herself fair game.

Yup, you've got that right. She's no longer *just the prop* holding hands with Monica's boyfriend for the cameras.

" . . expounding on the detriments of Bush's tax cut . . ." - Sure, Chels, that was everyone's first thought when those towers fell.

[Skooz]

Thank God the Clintons are not as prolific as the Kennedys. One festering family of left-wing inebriated, perverted Democratic demogogues is more than enough. I guess just one Chelsea to deal with is a bargain.

LOLOLOLOLOLOL!!
Well, thank goodness for small blessings, huh?

Its Chappaqua and she's really hacking me off....Listen you self righteous little twit.. ITS NOT YOUR DAMN CITY, YOU ARE FROM ARKANSAS AND LIVED IN WASHINGTON..YOUR FATHER LIVES IN CHAPPAQUA MAYBE ONE DAY A MONTH AND MOTHER LIVES IN DC...SO SHUT UP AND LEAVE!!!!

[hellinahandcart]

I'm reading the Post article and getting sick all over again. Don't these idiots have access to freaking MAPS? Union Square is about 2 1/2 MILES from the WTC. Yet they say it was "close". Yes, she was "closer" to the World Trade Center than her daddy's office in Harlem.

If she didn't want to take a chance on "fire raining down on her head", she should have gone straight back to that Union Square apartment instead of walking another couple of miles north to Grand Central. Was she trying to get Metro-North to Chappaqua? This whole story smells, and yet Tina Brown-nose is "blown away" by its "honesty".

[Dustbunny]

Who cares what she thinks or feels.

You are making her another $esse $ackson. Farrakhan (sp?) or Sharpton by dwelling on what she says and/or does.

I am still unsure about what Humpty Dumpty represented to me on that day

HUMPTY = BILL

DUMPTY = HILLARY

Mystery solved.

[doug from upland]

Now that you are out there in public spouting off, it's "President Bush," to you, you little military-hating *itch. I'll go find an anecdote about her run in with a member of the military.

[Hillary's Lovely Legs]

Ah youth, I remember when I was a young lass of 21, strolling Fifth Avenue, dreaming when I would pass Tiffany's, and bitching about tax cuts screwing the poor with my girlfriends.

Oh how I miss those happy days.

This whole story smells, and yet Tina Brown-nose is "blown away" by its "honesty" The best part is she worries about fire raining down on her head so she walks back to Grand Central, but she's walking north in the opposite direction of the WTC, so she would have less to worry about...What a moron!! Come on Hell, what's honesty matter when a Clinton is telling a story!!

[Steve_Seattle]

"I was expounding on the detriments of Bush's tax cut."

This is sad and frightening. She has just seen thousands of people die in a terrorist attack, and all she can think about is partisan politics.

[cardinal4]

Spare me,Chelsea is being groomed to be the next Hillary.Look out!! Its Replicating!!

[All-American Medic]

LOL....See you were the kind of chick we were trying to pick up...LOL

[KneelBeforeZod]

what a crappy article (by chelsea). at least the usual thesaurus addicted college student morons can leave out the sappy, poetic, incorrect grammar.

[In mourning for six years]

What a great post--Chelsea, darling, you will never be a New Yorker, your hideous mother will never be a New Yorker, and your perverted father will never be a New Yorker. Send 'em all back to Arkansas! (To our Arkansas brethren, I'm sorry but New York has enough on its plate right now.)

[Geezerette]

What a moving post! Are you a writer?! She needs to see it! But of course, she doesn't read pro-American writing like in FreeRepublic.com.

Can't someone send her this whole thread? There is so much more to this one that hits home than some of the other "Caption This" threads, tho they are always good for a laff. This is different. It goes right to the heart of the matter. She needs to have it crammed down her throat!

Arkansas doesnt want them back!

[hellinahandcart]

I think I'm going to chart Chelsea's 9/11 "odd"yssey on a map. Next thing I'll hear is that she and her buddies rode the carousel in Central Park that afternoon, somberly of course, and then watched the sunset from the 79th St. boat basin as they discussed what Chelsea's daddy would have done. Sheesh.

All-American Medic - ding...ding...ding...we have a winner...well said.

"Next I'll hear that her and her buddies rode the carousel in Central Park . . . "

Nah, it'll be something like, "I was cleaning the sores of AIDS patients in Harlem when I heard the first reports about the WTC. I quickly finished and assured everyone that everyone would be ok, grabbed a first aid kit and ran in the direction of the WTC, not knowing what I would see or find there, but only knowing that I must do something . I knew where I belonged."

Chelsea: prayed for my country and my city

JimVT: What.... Chattaqua got hit?

Maybe she spends one week in her father's office in Harlem and the next in her mother's huge NYC office. That way the US taxpayers can pay for Chelsea's housing in NYC.

If Chelsea can convince Hillary and Bill to cough up the money, they could choose to rent her a nice little pied-a-terre in London at this London Pied-a-Terre site.

I hope she doesn't try telling the Londoners that they deserved to be bombed by Hitler because of something they had done in the past. People might boo her in London if she does that.
