    Loyal partisan Betty (I know nothing) Currie lives about 10 miles from me in (BION) Hollywood, MD. She musta saved up quite a bit for that riverfront property….Every four years or so local Dims trot her out where she demonizes any Repub running (last time M. Steele) and fondly remincses about the Clinton WH…

    Gee. I almost feel like a political insider. LOL.

    Black & white cat? I’ll look for it. We all know how Billy lost “Buddy”, poor dog.

    Weird, I’d have though Bill would have liked to keep a little pussy around the house…

    sorry. couldn’t help myself on that one.

    Poor Socks — never allowed to be a family member. Just a political tool, discarded when no longer needed. Poor baby. Hope some NICE family adopted him after his long ordeal.

    If she’d have stuffed it in a gunny sack, and heaved it into the Potomac, I might feel a little closer to her.

    Casca, are you talking about Socks or Bill?

    I have met the former first cat while in the White House. It was a troublesome and not a friendly cat. It also drove the Secret Service guys absolutely nuts.

    [And no B2 and 'Snakie', before you guys can snidely comment, Socks and I are not even remotely related. ]

  • MaxDamage

    Fliterman, you expected a cat to bow down and adhere to your sense of What A Cat Should Be?

    That’s not the way cats work.

    You see, 3000 years ago the Egyptians worshiped cats as gods. Cats have not forgotten this.

    Marine6, I think Casca meant Hillary.

    He’s just too subtle, that’s all.

    I think it is a good thing that the Clintons gave Socks to a third party. We all know that Buddy committed suicide…

  • ELP

    Could be worse. Socks stayed loyal. Had Socks went for a tell all book deal Socks could have ended up like Buddy or Vince Foster.

  • P-3W

    The Clintons only did anything if it could pay off politically.

    When they did this when they left the WH, I wondered what kind of people they were to abandon their daughter’s cat. Of course, we knew then and we know now.

    Oh well. Hopefully she’ll have a public political meltdown before the elections. Dems seem to like to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory a lot.

    Flit,

    I ain’t a lover o’cats but the animals ain’t part of the story here…friendly or not…

    rather, it’s the character of the folks involved- almost “cat-like”. LOL.

    I wonder… You know how the White House traditionally pardons the Thanksgiving turkey and sends it to some non-working farm in upstate New York? I wonder…

    There’s gotta be *money* in ranching cats. Tell ‘em I’ll give their cat the wild and free life on the range that nature promised as their birthright and they in that surburban tract house were unable to provide, promise plenty of room to roam and other cats to socialize with, even a change of seasons to let their fur naturally thicken and thin… Why, there’s gotta be *somebody* stupid enough to fall for it!

    Right. I’m off to make up some brochures. Think Hillary would like to amend this black spot on her record for several easy installments in the six-figure range? You know, for the continued upkeep of the poor dear feline?

  • [...] The Game Fairy wrote an interesting post today onHere’s a quick excerptLooking forward to watching the “War Room” wheel into action on this one. I suspect it will turn out that Socks was trailer trash, a cat subborned for an hundred dollar bill by a couple of vast, right wing tomcats. That she ran away. … [...]
