Remember how you people all hated Hillary Clinton for having the temerity to run against Barack Obama and suggest that he was too busy enjoying sex with his pretty wife to answer phone calls at 3am, unlike Hillary Clinton who never sleeps and stays awake at night seething with rage while her husband picks up fat chicks at the bar that sells frozen mixed drinks out of Slurpee machines? Remember how you people were convinced she would ruin everything and believed that if she said “2 plus 2 equals 4″ you could reasonably conclude they actually equaled 5, because every word out of her mouth was a transparent lie? Well, now Hillary Clinton says she isn’t interested in a Supreme Court appointment and is “probably” not interested in running for president again, which means HOLD ONTO YOUR HAT BAT MAN:
There is “zero” chance of her accepting a Supreme Court seat, she told Fox News. “I have no interest in that.”
Ah, but what about another White House run someday? Gotta be tempting. To come so close this time. What are the chances of that? “Probably close to zero.”
[...]“There’s an old saying,” Clinton added. “Bloom where you’re planted.”
It is so cute, how she pretends not to be planning a massive coup.
Hillary Clinton gives up on another White House run, ‘probably’ [Top of the Ticket]
Aw, I was kind of hoping she’d be our next copyright czar.
Why is Teh Hillz acting like an angry, scorned bitty?
What’s that? That’s not an act?
Okay.
I for one salute Senator-for-Life Clinton.
Damn. I figured getting her in a Justice robe would prevent me from having to see her pantsuits ever again. And it would be fun to watch Bill squirm when as she wrote an inevitable position paper upholding the death penalty for philandering.
On the plus side, should Hilz ever become Bitter-in-Chief, her first executive order will be to have Mooselips in front of a firing squad.
Hills would make a great Supreme Court chief justice. I really do want her to find a niche that’ll piss off the GOP who hate her even more than Barry. Plus the position is for life, so she’ll be pissing them off and causing hissy fits for years to come.
She is so baked in that foto.
Wha, who ever thought she’d be qualified for an appointment to the Supreme Court? Maybe she could be Surgeon General instead.
It serves you right, Merka…Hillz just yurted on you.
Somebody call wardrobe! The Empress has too many clothes!
Wingnut meltdown: Bill on the Court, Hill as Sec. of State and Rep. Chelsea from whatever district she chooses…
I for one think shes stilol sexeh
/barf
Serolf Divad: I never realized that, that’s a great idea.
Maybe Obama can appoint Hillary AND Bill to the Supremes, it would probably explode the AM band completely and we’d never have to listen to political or sports talk radio again.
Secretary of State. The foreigns love her.
Darehead:
Especially the snipers.
Must get Hillary flower blooming analogy OUT OF MY MIND UNGHHHH.
Carpetbags bloom?
…ehhhhhh, I figure she is not trying to give the right-wing something to get energized against.
I can just imagine the call to action:
“If Barack Obama is elected he will nominate left-wing crazys like Hillary Clinton, Fidel Castro and the reincarnated soul of Stalin!”
She is already booked for Dancing With the Stars during sweeps week.
Serolf Divad: putting hillz on the supremes would be the easiest way to force the rightwingers to deal with her UNTIL SHE’S DEAD. when the next seat opens, nominate hillary just for the lolz.
Angry: Stalin is tailor-made hero for the right. They all secretly schwarm on him. A real man of action, with a made-up name. Promotes nobodies to all the important posts, chops off their heads the day after he gives them an upgrade. And backed into a corner, does a complete 540 degree turn.
dmac:
Bill and Hillary on the SC would be superduperawesome! And Paul Krugman as treasury secretary! And Chelsea Clinton could become the next senator from New York.
No, she’ll stay in the Senate and become Majority Leader once Harry Reid commits suicide in Fort Marcy Park.
Serolf Divad: Getting 60 Dems into the Senate would make this a very real possibility. OhMyGod, the right would go so batshit insane.
What she needs to do is go to some Asian country and stay at a Hilton and tell people that her husband is Bill and refuse to go home after being there 4 years because she’ll be tried for treason if she does and then finally come home after 5.5 years and flip flop around a lot and crash some planes and dump Bill for a hottie that’s 40 years younger and a trillionaire get some skin cancer and run when she’s in her 70s.
I’d love to see her consolidating power in the Senate. With Teddy on the fade, she could be the next real power broker…
dmac: FTW. Awesome. Their combined extremist liberal power would collapse radio waves. It depends on the what the meaning of Amplitude Modulation is…
nurple: I sense a Blingee opportunity here.
Plus, she is SO intensely doable in that picture. Hott!
Whassup today? Pantsuits, Blooming, Lathering panties, Creaming..maybe Hopey really is going to win!
Supreme Court? Sound good. Although she wouldn’t be the first woman, she WOULD be the first SC Justice to fail the bar. Always breaking ceilings, that one.
pondscum: In this picture she has a vaguely palpatine-esque haze. My apologies for referencing a bad movie.
Can’t wait for Oliver Stone’s next one: Hil
That pic looks like Alfred E. Hillary.
An ad for Lunesta? Is Ken worried about a McCain vicorty - followed by a quick McCain termination and we find Sarah walking down Constitution Ave. on 01/20/09 in that idiotic pink snorkle parka.
BruceLee5000: slithytoves would hit that. And throw in Huma for a Sara K-panty lathering Wonketteer Bella Abzug fest.
“Bill & Hillary with the Supremes” will become the next unreality teevee show.
Actually Al Gore with the Supremes would be juicy too… I hate to get my hopeyness up (still 3 weeks away…), but there’s a lot of folks deservin’ of some redemptin’. Payback for Kerry? And let’s not forget Lil’ Joey Liebermutt!
Watchin’ teh grovelin’ will be fun.
Palin/Clinton 2012!!!
Thank G-d we have, to this point at least, avoided celebrity Justices. Scalito &c are shockingly incompetent and thugs, but imagine how crazy they would be if they had a public rep to uphold as well.
As far as Supreme Court Justices, I think Dumbo Scalia and Pastey Hot Roberts could be easily replaced with a bag of leaves and a vocal children’s doll.
JoeFannyPack: Mooselini/Hitlary rings well with the wing nuts.
DoctorCulturae: If the Dems gain enough senate seats to make Joey L.’s vote irrelevant, it’ll be so beautiful. They’ll shun him harder and faster than any apostate has ever been shunned.
Oh no Chenney is having a heart attack.
Isn’t Satan busy enough today?
Also, according to CNN, there are riots in a country called “Columbia”.
rocktonsammy: They just need to refuel him with the blood of a few virgins and he’ll be fine.
slappypaddy: You made me choke on my Raisin Bran.
ihasasad: That’s a great scenario, hoe did you come up that one? It couldn’t possibly be true.
I say, she becomes the leader of the senate, pushes ahead with universal health care, wins a grand prize, is re-elected to one more term in the senate, and as a retirement package - from a “grateful nation” - she becomes a supreme, and a thorn in the side of every repug from now until eternity!!!
“There’s an old saying,” Clinton added. “Bloom where you’re planted.”
I think Hillary is trying to tell us that she’s standing in a pile of shit.
HIlz is already planning on being the Senate power broker and Obama ball breaker so forget the Supremes talk (unless the analogy is acting like Diana Ross did to the other 2 after the break up).
Hillary can’t be on the bench- she sexually harassed me once. Well, she opened my soda with her cooch.
Wow, scorching! Not: http://tinyurl.com/4mezo3
THe only thing that would piss off Republicans more than having Hillary on the SC would be having Barry put Arizona’s very own Gov Janet on the court. She is a woman and is rumored to be a lesbo…. Republicans would be apoplectic! And with a serious majority in the senate, she’d be a shoo-in!
She’s joining the WWF?
Uh, maybe a Supreme should have served on a federal bench? Preferably a Circuit Court? Democrats don’t need no Harriet Miers.
Excuse me. I need to change my panties.
DemmeFatale: +1. Wear the grandma bloomers, that’d be hot.
slappypaddy: You’ve obiously never seen a floral pattern carpetbag.
Bill will be on the bench and Hills will be Senate Majority Leader.
Controlling 2 branches of government will do until Chelsea turns 35…
I’m down with Hillary-Senator-For-Life. She really could be the next Ted Kennedy. But no no no (!) on Hils, Bill, John Kerry, Lez Napolitano or ANY of those guys on the supreme Court. You people aren’t thinking far enough ahead.
We need new supremes that are healthy, liberal and YOUNG as possible. Nobody under fifty; and younger than that if possible. Remember, it’s a lifetime appointment.
I want BOTH of the Clintons on the Supreme Court. The third opening should be filled by some personal injury ambulance chasing greaseball who advertises on late nite TV and makes life hell for big insurance companies.
Is it common practice to nominate people to the Supreme Court who haven’t ever served as a judge or litigated an important case? Wait I forgot, didn’t Thurgood Marshall and John Jay get on the bench because they couldn’t let go of bitter primary defeats? Give her two seats, perhaps she has a dog Barack snubbed.

Dawn Keipuntsh: Oh, oh, and Barney as Speaker when Ms. Nancy decides to replace Ahhhnold as Govenator. Pleeeeeze, oh, PLEEEEEZE! All my wingnut relative’s heads would explode, and I’d be the onliest one left in Granpa’s will.
Miller: Not in the past fifty or so years, but before that it was pretty common. There is absolutely no requirement for previous judicial experience.
TeddyS: Eh, John Edwards is kind of laying low these days.
Miller: Hey, I thought you reformed your blog-pimpin’ ways?
