While speaking at a youth conference for Mideast peace, Hillary
Clinton announced her support for a Palestinian state. Spinners at the
White House quickly pointed out that the First Lady wasn't quoting any
``official'' policy and that she isn't a government policy maker, except
in the case of healthcare. In summary, Hillary's ''personal''
opinion doesn't speak for the President.
To which, Mrs. Clinton replied, "Not yet."

At a news conference with Italian Prime Minister Romano Prodi,
President Clinton, in reference to the released Hubbell tapes,
said:
'' Well, I think it was clearly a violation of privacy of Mr. and
Mrs. Hubbell for the tapes to be released.''
And then, for emphasis, added, "And trust me, I ought to know."

NASA has announced new troubles for the beleaguered Hubbell
Telescope. The telescope, originally thought to be able to give insight
to the mysteries central to the universe, has rolled over into a
different orbit. It is now endangered from the many objects in space.
"It's feeling a squeeze play." NASA officials think that the simplest
solution, which won't open up the problem to any of the other
satellites, would be for Hubbell to roll over again without involving
anyone else.

The President met daughter Chelsea's new boyfriend recently.
Mr. Clinton took a special interest in the Stanford swimmer after
discovering that his specialty was the butterfly stroke. This is
only natural considering that Bill Clinton has stroked quite a
few butterflies in his time.

Too bad he doesn't compete in the breaststroke.
But then the Secret Service would be all over him.
Does anyone else out there wonder that if Bill Clinton had had a son instead of a daughter, he'd be sharing girlfriends with him by now?

President Bush and Clinton have both had near-death experiences.
Bush was shot down in World War II. And Hillary came home early
one afternoon.

Matt Drudge has reported that President Clinton was recently reminded of the surveillance cameras in the White House, including the Oval Office.
Coming this summer to a Congressional hearing near you:
"sex, lies and videotape".
