DONE RETIRED?

· Sunday, May 4, 2003 · 5 comments

Janis wonders if Hillary Clinton is retiring:

I never read Hillary Clinton’s book “It Takes A Village”. But it is an excellent title — parents, grandparents, relatives, teachers, neighbors and friends all have essential roles in raising a child. It is a true statement.

So what idiot came up with the title “Living History” for her memoirs? That title evokes to me the last living Confederate widow, the last World War I veteran, the last living painter of the Cubist school of art. Isn’t she supposed to be a working politician? Or is she ready to retire?

One can only hope. Although, come to think of it, she is something of a relic. . . .

(I quoted the whole thing. For reasons I won’t mention, her permalinks don’t work.)

    Do not make fun of my frugality, James. Don’t you think that’s a dreadful title?
