Hillary Clinton’s Elbow Put Back Together Again

Elbows are gross.Hey members of the public, did you pray for Hillary Clinton and her right elbow as they went into surgery today? Because thanks to you, her elbow is fine. Of course, if the woman had any decency she would have both of her elbows removed permanently. [First Read]

    It’s a vast right elbow conspiracy, is what.

  2. Jukesgrrl says at 4:58 pm, June 19th, 2009

    She had a bionic one installed. Don’t mess with her, Bill.

  3. memzilla says at 4:58 pm, June 19th, 2009

    The first step to becoming… The Hillinator!

  4. Scandalabra says at 5:00 pm, June 19th, 2009

    Hillary. We hardly knew ye.

  5. user-of-owls says at 5:00 pm, June 19th, 2009

    I know what Puma stands for, but what about Ulna?

    Unity Lovers Not American? Ugly Ladies National Alliance?

  6. chascates says at 5:01 pm, June 19th, 2009

    Ulna humerus OK now?

  7. CrunchyKnee says at 5:01 pm, June 19th, 2009

    PUMAs all over American can breath easier now, and pick up that half-eaten slab of Enteman’s chocolate cake.

  8. zenferret says at 5:03 pm, June 19th, 2009

    Sara? Hillary “Thalidomide” Clinton? Wha?

    Or were you thinking T-Rex look?

  9. ChernobylSoup v2 says at 5:03 pm, June 19th, 2009

    I just know Kissinger was behind this somehow.

  10. SayItWithWookies says at 5:03 pm, June 19th, 2009

    Oh, you think this is humerus, do you?

  11. you cannot be serious says at 5:03 pm, June 19th, 2009

    Who will give Bill the sharp elbow when he stares too long at the girlies?

  12. CrunchyKnee says at 5:04 pm, June 19th, 2009

    Goddamnit…”breathe easier now…” I am no smarter than a truck full of Paulites sans trucknutz.

  13. Brendan M. says at 5:08 pm, June 19th, 2009

    WHAT HAPPENED, DID JON FAVREAU TRY TO RAPE HERE AGAIN?!?1

  14. Extemporanus says at 5:10 pm, June 19th, 2009

    Anyone care for a Junior Mint?

  15. 19kevin8 says at 5:10 pm, June 19th, 2009

    There’s a health care joke in here somewhere.

  16. Come here a minute says at 5:10 pm, June 19th, 2009

    Do not be surprised when Secretary Clinton talks into her elbow and Justice Sotomayor listens to her ankle.

  17. ManchuCandidate says at 5:11 pm, June 19th, 2009

    Jukesgrrl:
    And don’t demand any handjobs either.

  18. drrty martini says at 5:12 pm, June 19th, 2009

    If David Letterman hadn’t raped us all with Olive Garden this wouldn’t have had to happen.

  19. Blender says at 5:13 pm, June 19th, 2009

    In the Circle, it’s all assholes and elbows.

  20. Lionel Hutz Esq. says at 5:19 pm, June 19th, 2009

    First Sotomayor. Then Hillary.

    Isn’t it clear that Obama is injuring the powerful women around him and then replacing them at the hospital with terminators?

    The PUMAs were right!

  21. bitchincamaro says at 5:19 pm, June 19th, 2009

    Was it the right wing or the left wing?

    Sorry.

  22. x111e7thst says at 5:24 pm, June 19th, 2009

    Does the right elbow know what the far right elbow is doing?

  23. SayItWithWookies says at 5:26 pm, June 19th, 2009

    chascates: Damn. You gotta get up pretty early in the morning if you’re gonna win the afternoon.

  24. Ah, now the PUMAs can go back to Olive Garden.

    They really love them breadsticks!

  25. stumpycuse says at 5:26 pm, June 19th, 2009

    it’s all part of Barry’s campaign to make Health Care the top priority.

  26. Saragon says at 5:28 pm, June 19th, 2009

    You know, were I the Unamerican Secret Muslim Islamofascist Socialist Barack Obama that only Fox News reports on, I’m not sure I could turn down the temptation to have personal rocket launchers installed in my political appointees either. I mean, why would you not? I don’t know that the ankle’s a great place for one, but Hillary Clinton’s elbow? We would win diplomacy every time.

  27. ShamWow says at 5:33 pm, June 19th, 2009

    Extemporanus: Prognosis Negative

  28. SayItWithWookies says at 5:35 pm, June 19th, 2009

    19kevin8: I thought it was interesting when they reported this yesterday and said she’d have to get the surgery next week. And I was wondering where the outrage was that in our non-socialist healthcare system you still have to wait a week for necessary surgery!
    But then it turned out that it was just a ruse — so bummer.

    And Hillary — I’m glad your operation went okay, but I didn’t pray for your elbow. I did, however, pray for Chelsea’s elbow. If by “pray” you mean “think lewd thoughts.” And by “elbow” you mean — well, you get the idea.

  29. S.Luggo says at 5:36 pm, June 19th, 2009

    She injured her elbow due to overuse during her primary run. Barry has the welts to show it.

  30. Humpback says at 5:38 pm, June 19th, 2009

    Next time she’s in public watch for the magic marker on her left side: “WRONG ARM”

  31. I always figured that Monica’s knees would give out before Hillary’s elbow.

  32. hobospacejunkie says at 5:50 pm, June 19th, 2009

    You people are sick. It’s not humerus to joke about the aged and infirm. Or the clumsy.

  33. Extemporanus says at 5:51 pm, June 19th, 2009

    ShamWow: Mulva?..

  34. shortsshortsshorts says at 6:08 pm, June 19th, 2009

    At least somebody gets to benefit from government health care.

  35. ShamWow says at 6:09 pm, June 19th, 2009

    Extemporanus: It’s Dolores…

  36. TeddyS says at 6:16 pm, June 19th, 2009

    Rahm, I told you to break her neck, not her elbow. You won’t slow her down with a broken arm. All you have done is force her to hire Liz Becton to write her emails. End of days, you moron.

  37. skyinator says at 6:24 pm, June 19th, 2009

    If she comes out with her arm in a slingette and her faced all ironed out I’m gonna be pissed.

  38. FreshCliches says at 7:04 pm, June 19th, 2009

    WUT ABOUT THE CANKLES???2??2?

  39. keepinitrealyo says at 7:15 pm, June 19th, 2009

    Not one word about this on Hillbuzz. Just sayin.

  40. rocktonsammy says at 8:12 pm, June 19th, 2009

    Thats the elbow that wound up in Bubba’s groin area from time to time, along with an ashtray thrown his way. The hospital has the x-rays to prove it so.

  41. CrunchyKnee: Hey, don’t be down on yourself. It was just a silent e.

  42. Hoo Hoo says at 8:36 pm, June 19th, 2009

    Yeah, she’s just doing it for the vicodin…. See what the Iran and NK gov’ts are doing in her absence???

  43. zhubajie says at 8:42 pm, June 19th, 2009

    Why didn’t she just have Rick Warren “HEAL” it?

  44. heroinmule says at 8:46 pm, June 19th, 2009

    I’m gonna get a bit more mileage out of this one: let’s all have an iced white zinfandel spritzer in honor of this occasion.

  45. S.Luggo says at 10:25 pm, June 19th, 2009

    zhubajie: Because it would require the laying of hands on XX-chromosone flesh. (Yum] His fingers would glow and sizzle, like the spectacled, Gestapo Nazi’s at the end of Raiders of the Lost Arc.
    And then where would evangelical Christiamity be, don’t cha ya know?
    But I digress.

  46. tropaean says at 4:10 am, June 20th, 2009

    FreshCliches:
    Ohhh, the cankle-bone’s connected to the - knee-bone
    and the knee-bone’s connected to the - thigh-bone
    and the thigh-bone’s connected to the - hip-bone…

    Oh, who am I kidding. Hil doesn’t have a hip bone in her whole body.

  47. This could change Bill’s Love life! What with H having to switch hands and all. (i tried)
    Do not look up that thigh bone to where it connects. Just don’t! Front view, side view, Rear ahhh STOP JUST DON’T.
    . To go where one man has gone before. If your I’s have it. Bad deal!

  48. smellyal8r says at 9:39 am, June 20th, 2009

    It was a “slip and fall” in the State Department garage. She oughta sue the boss…oh, wait. Also, thank God it wasn’t one of her cankles. That would have taken months to find a donor, do the implant and wait for healing.

  49. Dude! Hillary’s elbow is *important* so’s she can go on drinking as a diplomat. The fate of Western Civilization hangs on her elbow!

  50. Did the Puma’s even bother to hold some kind of candlelit vigil or have they forgotten about Hillz already? I feel so dirty when I have to go over to those Puma sites, so I’m not going to bother to check myself.

    Was there any kind of power struggle at State when she was in surgery? Going in for surgery is usually an ideal time for coup-plotting.
