Reply #100: You silly Conspiracy Theorist

[Laurab]

I simply mentioned Rostenkowski's possible involvement in some unfortunate clam deaths - I have no interest in his political future - or, lack of one, I guess. I revealed NOTHING, but now there will probably be subpoenas about it due to the looseness of your typing fingers. I can tell right now, it won't be easy keeping you out of trouble.

I think rotating First Ladies is a wonderful idea. I'm so tired of seeing the same, glazed-over-eyed, curtain-dressed, same one for 6+ years now. No one could possibly see it as sexist, unless of course, they too were conspiracy theorists. Variety, and something nice to look at, would be a welcome change I'm sure.

I can't help but notice that you are now backing off your promise to do "everything else". My one question being - if none of us are going to do the work, who is? I will say that my children would be a wonderful prop for any photo-op - as you know, most candidates do trot their children out, and it certainly doesn't hurt for them to be attractive.

My son would even speak, I believe - not my daughter though, she would just stand and look lovely, and hug me - and maybe you, and Wetzelbill, too. Children ARE needed, and apparently I'm the only one who has them. My son does work very hard on one thing - his abs, so he's not totally lazy. He's just not fond of manual labor. One might ask why he worked on his abs, if he didn't want to use them, as I often do - the answer being of course that "girls like them".

I don't want to start a fight, either, but my children are NOT going to Switzerland - my daughter is already in NYC, and that's quite far enough, thank you. My son is threatening, after graduation, to relocate to Boston, which is not quite as bad, because my youngest brother lives there, and he has an adorable one year old, who we could also probably borrow, and occasionally I visit there. He mostly pays for a hotel - and not a cheap one, either, if we visit. He's a musician, and could probably also write our campaign theme song. Or songs, he's quite prolific!

Now, about Rostenkowski and the clams - what are they, and what did he do to them?
