#3 I'm a little slow today, so forgive my dull-wittedness. Somebody tell me this is snarky sarcasm?
Or that I'm in a Monthy Python movie?

#4 I don't get it either, NoMoreBS. Frank G's comment was a whole lot funnier than the article.

#5 Please tell me that this is a joke... with lines like "He's always had great admiration for Monica's abilities", "might get in over her head" and "a fresh face" with "a lot to offer," and "honored and humbled by the opportunity to serve my country again".

Please, tell me this is a joke - and I am not the only one with a really, really filthy mind.

On the upside, we might at last have pro-Obama comedians willing to cut loose at last.

#6 Calm down, y'all. Billy Kimball seems to be a fairly wonderfully silly writer, based on his biography page at the Huffington Post. I must admit to being shocked at headlines like "Obamas Expected to Have Sex in White House, Insiders Say" and "Sarah Palin is Rubber; Barack Obama is Glue".

#11 Mr. Kimball blogs at the Huffington Post, European Conservative. It appears someone over there has a sense of humor. Anonymoose picked up the piece via Yahoo.com's Opinion section, which is no doubt why he missed that it is a parody of some of the articles filed under Politics.

#13 Their going to have enough leakers at the white house with all those Clintons folks. The question is that now that she is older can she keep her mouth shut?

#14 Axelrod wants Lewinsky. Well, why not, seems to be pretty much a fitting, kinda ying-yang proposition.
