Get a Real Job Chelsea Clinton

utterz-image

It has been taboo for people to question Chelsea Clinton as she travels the country stumping for her mother. When someone asks her a tough question she hides behind the concept that it is a family affair, as if she were not part of the family business of politics. Or the campaign will jump up and say, she’s ‘our daughter’ you shouldn’t ask that.Well the reality is that Chelsea is pushing 30. She was born in 1980 and has been wearing big girl pants for quite a while. She graduated from Stanford (undergrad) and Oxford (Master’s) and probably owns Patek watches more substantial and important than this latest effort.

So with parents that cleared over $50 million in the last few years, a father who was the former leader of the free world, and a mother who is a Senator from New York, she should have a pretty good shot at making something of herself.

Instead today, I get an email from Chelsea talking about an important decision. Is she going to run for office herself? Is she resigning from the campaign to go make her own way in the world? Is she joining the military to go fight in afghanistan where the real terrorists are according to her mother?

No, she’s running a popularity poll and contest to find her mother’s campaign a new T-shirt with a good slogan.

Are you kidding me!???!

If you hear her speak, she sounds like she probably has as much intelligence as her father and mother. But even if she was cursed with only half the intelligence, you’d think that at age 28 she could be trusted with a little more responsibility.

Finding the right t-shirt for a campaign that might be dead next week?

In all seriousness, Chelsea, in all serious Clinton family, WTF?

“Dear Brett,

We need your help to make a critical decision — our next official campaign t-shirt.

We recently launched a contest to design a campaign t-shirt, and I couldn’t believe the incredible response. We got thousands of great entries. They were creative, inspirational, funny, and beautiful. It was amazing to see the devotion to my mom’s campaign come through in each t-shirt. Thank you to everyone who submitted a design!

It wasn’t easy to narrow it down, but we’ve chosen five we think are particularly great, and now we need your help in making our final decision. Please vote for your favorite design — the winning shirt will go on sale in our online campaign store.

Please click here to see the finalists and vote for your favorite.

Thanks again for everything you’re doing to help my mom!

Go Hillary!
Chelsea ”

How Long is Vick Going to Spend in Prison - Pleads Guilty

Michael Vick has accepted a Plea agreement with federal prosecutors and will likely spend time in prison.  Possibly 18 months to 3 years in prison as was offered by Federal Prosecutors today.

He also received a seat belt ticket over the weekend when he was riding as a passenger in an SUV that had windows tinted too much in Virginia.  Michael Vick can’t seem to be able to do much right these days, but at least he might have a chance to put his life into perspective with some time to reflect in solitary confinement.  He’ll probably be kept very safe in prison as a celebrity and a polarizing celebrity at that.

There is no word yet whether or not the Virginia state courts will get their act together and bring state charges as well.  Its also unknown whether corporate sponsors will turn around an litigate Vick for the wasted money they paid him for sponsorship deals.

Vick may find himself auctioning off his property, his cars, his tonneau cover for his truck, maybe even his own memorabilia.

Hopefully, as this sports scandal drops off the radar, people will be able to focus on the more important political issues.
