Catherine. 17 years old. Policy wonk. Classics nerd. Atheist. Bleeding-heart liberal and progressive.

I am obsessed with rock and punk music, the Classics, men in well-fitted suits, politics, and history. Oh, and whatever fandom has currently captured my heart.

You and I might not agree, but I will never back down.

Is Boehner wearing the same tie that Clinton was wearing in the 90’s?

Wow his face must be red… well, some weird mixture or red and orange. His face will look like this:

-Joe

Why is Al Gore looking sexy as fuck?

Clinton clocked in at 22 minutes. Usually he can talk for 22 minutes just on rural literacy initiatives.

The content was also well behaved, stuffed with hope and optimism and goodwill toward all humankind. There was vapor there, some gas, but Clinton did everyone a favor by making only one, attenuated reference to that bridge he’s building. He didn’t go through a laundry list of policy proposals. He did not claim to be the master of the world or the single hope of mankind. He did not ask the citizenry to address him henceforth as “Caesar.” Clinton didn’t even seem to ad-lib, sticking to the script like a good boy. Someone should do a DNA test to verify that this was the real Clinton.
