PAPER: HILLARY AND BILL PLANNING DIVORCE

**Exclusive**

White House officials are furious that the NATIONAL ENQUIRER is planning to report that Bill and Hillary Clinton are now actively planning to divorce!

Next week [12/14] the tabloid will unleash the report with a brutal front page scream exclusive that quotes "family and legal sources".

One senior White House official called the paper earlier this week to express his outrage at the devastating story.

But compounding the matter is the fact that Bill Clinton's private attorney, David Kendall, who is overseeing much of the president and first lady's private legal affairs, is a member of the Washington law firm Williams & Connolly -- a law firm that reviewed the ENQUIRER story on the Clinton divorce!

"It has been legally vetted for accuracy and libel -- from the inside," said one publishing source.

The ENQUIRER story, obtained by the DRUDGE REPORT, runs for pages.

The ENQUIRER's sister publication STAR is planning to report that when Hillary moves out of the White House next month to live in New York where she's running for the Senate, she's really walking out on Bill -- with no intention of every going back.

Fights between the Clintons have been more intense than ever in recent weeks as their marriage dissolves, says the report.

"When Hillary all but announced that she was running for the Senate last week," according to one source close to the First Lady, "it was no slip of the tongue that led her to say, 'I'm going to be moving into my house as soon as the Secret Service tell me it's ready.' She's hinting to the public what's up -- and she's telling Bill, who still doesn't want to hear it.

"But this Senate run is Hillary's way out of a failed marriage. Win or lose, she gets out of it. She may yet decide to use her maiden name, Hillary Rodham, on the ballot instead of Hillary Clinton. She's that serious."

The STAR reports that Hillary's friends in the White House are almost giddy about Hillary being finally free.

"It's like when you've got a friend in a terrible marriage, how relieved you are when they finally smarten up and get out," said one. "You're so happy they saved themselves."

The national soap opera intensifies next week.

I wonder if this will make Bill a little more reckless as we approch the roll over? His state of mind may be even more clouded than usuall. Didn't we drop lots of bombs the last time he wanted to devert the public attention from his personal life? Y2K may be a real chance for him to look "Presidental" and in CONTROL!!

So many issues, so little time left....

DUUUHHHH.

The political couple both get something. Hillary gets to cut ties with the philander in chief to help her Senate campaign. Bill gets to cut the fake attachement and chase whatever skirt he wants. This would not be "leaked" without their approval.

Croc tears they are a flowing. I don't buy this as news.

I feel sorry for Mrs. Clinton. I hope she gives him the boot.

From all the gossipoids she hasn't given him any since she found out that his indescretions with Monica were verified. So he probably wants some and this story just might be true.

Wasn't it just a couple weeks ago that Billy and Hillary were listed among the top ten most evil people in the world? They deserve each other because they are exactly alike.

Does this mean Hillary will be available???

This can't be true!!! We are living in Camelot, I say!! The Clintons are royalty, and are respected and admired by Americans of all ages!!

Say it ain't so!! Please don't burst my fantasy bubble. I mean, it's the Enquirer, so it has to be false, right? Don't they always write about Elvis and aliens and Y2k and stuff??

Polly,

How can you feel sorry for Hillary?

EVERY SINGLE DAY for who knows how many years she got up out of bed and voluntarily said "I DO" to this man. Now she finally says "I DON'T". She deserved every bit of him.

This is very interesting in a tabloid kind of way. I spent a career in the military, am a VFW and a DAV. My ex announced gleefully on the night before my retirement ceremony that she was leaving me for a younger, married man.

Unfortunately for her, he dumped her once she was single. She now lives with a dope dealing punk in Arizona.

My question is this...If Hillary and Bill divorce, is she entitled to half of his presidential pension?

I believe that if the active duty troops get this treatment, that it ought to apply to the "commander in chief." Does anyone know how this would work?

-- Ripped Off (Retiree@mil.gumint), December 01, 1999.


Dear Ripped Off --

Compare Clinton's extra-marital affiars to those of Lieut. Kelly Flynn to understand whether the standards for the enlisted man will be applied to teh Commander in Chief. It will not work for the Clintons as it did for you. My guess is -- and this is NOT A THREAT just a bit of futuristic guesswork -- that it will work out for Hillary the way it worked out for Princess Di.

I suppose you're right. The enlisted man slogan ought to be..."Work hard, with diligence and honesty and you will be rewarded."

Then there should be a picture of someone being impaled by an enormous screw.

OT - I heard that under the Clinton administration that so far one billion dollars has been sent to the government of Haiti. What did they spend it on? Or is he investing in a nest egg for later on?

Mrs. Hillbillary Clinton is the most cunning, power-hungry grasping Marxist who has ever darkened the halls of the White House. Every time I think of her (which is as seldom as possible, thank goodness!) I can only picture her as a dominatrix, with the studded dogcollar choker, the black leather bustier, mesh stockings, 4-inch spike heels, and a cat-o-nine-tails.

HC combines the worst parts of Eleanor Roosevelt and Rosalyn Carter (Jimmy's wife). As for the latter, anyone remember seeing Jimmy Carter giving his "I accept the results of the [1980] election? Rosalyn was so visibly filled with hatred toward the American people that SHE was being fired as 1st lady that I am glad she did not have access to the "football". As far as ER, well, remember what a socialist she was, rather more so (by her own estimation, which I accept) than even her husband.

A socialist is in practice ultimately in favor of A) the world depicted in "The Gulag Archipelago" by Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn and/or B) the situation of the Twentieth Century Motor Company in "Atlas Shrugged" by Ayn Rand. For those of you not inclined to read these books, here is a summary for you: just think of a set of manacles, a bloody whip, a mass grave, a empty food bowl, an eternally downcast unseeing gaze without hope of hope, and a mass grave. THESE are the symbols of the socialist.
