So much ado over Bill Clinton's remark to Ted Kennedy that a few years before the comment, now-President Obama would have been getting Bill & Ted excellent coffee.
Please. This is Bill Clinton, the guy we called "Slick Willy" before we even knew what that really meant. He's the Man Who Gave Us George Bush, for God's sake.
Secondly, it is not a racist remark. Bill meant that youngish, inexperienced political operatives do the menial tasks, like getting coffee or writing tax legislation. Interns, as Bill knows, are especially good at handling refreshment. Of course, the Big O is nowhere nearly pretty or gilrly enough to work for Bill Clinton, so it was a joke to begin with.
Besides, race? As Harry Reid knows, the Big O is Hawaiian. It's why we white folk felt safe in voting for him, instead of that guy who was way too white. He was more likely to be a surfer than a Crip (which is not to say that Crips can't have an Aloha chapter, it being a somewhat free country).
My advice to Bill Clinton, which he won't even read: For now, Bill, do something useful, say buzzing on over for a cozy chat with Kim Jong-Il and get your owned damned coffee.
