Former President Bill Clinton — who spoke at today’s Inaugural Chicago House Speaker Series Luncheon — dined at Table Fifty-Two this evening!

Former President Bill Clinton claims he hasn’t seen the video of wifey, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, going ape shit after a student in Africa asked what Bill’s opinion is on an issue.

Inside Edition’s Les Trent asked Slick Willie if he’s seen the much publicized video of Hillary losing her cool.

“No, I haven’t,” Bill said.

I mean, really?! What could his excuse be? It’s not like he was in North Korea or something where there is no Internet, TV or contact with the outside world at all! Oh wait…

I never thought I’d be saying this about the man I did a three series speech on in college all about his scandals and sex addiction, but I have to hand it to Bill Clinton today because he is a miracle worker!

Clinton may not be able to keep his pants on, but he sure as hell can charm the pants off anyone including mad scientist North Korean dictator Kim Jong Il!

After a visit from Clinton, Jong Il pardoned and ordered the release of U.S. journalists, Laura Ling and Euna Lee, who were convicted of illegally entering the nation in March.

Clinton met with Jong Il in Pyongyang on Tuesday to seek their release. He met with Kim and then the journalists, after which came the announcement the women were being released, according to CBS News reports.

According to state media, Clinton and Kim engaged in a “wide-ranging exchange of views on matters of common concern,” the report said.

The report said that Clinton conveyed a message from President Barack Obama, but the White House is denying that report.

The White House should be embarrassed that a former president managed to accomplish in one day what the sitting president has been trying to do for months! Sad!

I spoke way too soon!

The other week I wrote about a site that Bill Clinton’s former mistresses Paula Jones and Gennifer Flowers recently launched where they talk about their affairs with the former President. I also wrote about how I find it shocking that there have been no women who have come forward since the Monica Lewinsky scandal claiming to have had an affair with Clinton.

Well, I spoke way too soon.

In this week’s National Enquirer they expose one of Clinton’s recent mistresses socialite Julie Tauber McMahon who lives just five miles from the Clinton’s home in Chappaqua, New York.

As if that’s not bad enough, the magazine claims that after McMahon broke the relationship off with Clinton, he cheated non-stop while Hillary was busy campaigning.

Wow! Some things will never change. That man has issues!

Former President Bill Clinton’s former mistresses Paula Jones and Gennifer Flowers have started a new business together talking about Bill’s cock!

Literally. The two started a site callled GenniferandPaula.com. Interested parties can go and pay to watch videos of them talking about their sexual misfortunes with Clinton. Here’s just some of the names of the videos you can purchase:

“Hillary Running For President”

“Paula and the Presidential Penis”

“Gennifer’s Story and the Presidential Penis”

Didn’t they say it was crooked? You knew with Hillary Clinton running for president that more stuff like this would come out. I’m just shocked that there haven’t been any new women who have come out claiming to have had an affair with Bill. Is it really possible that he has managed to stay faithful since the Monica Lewinsky scandal? Anyway, I don’t know about you, but I can find a better way to spend $1.99!

Tom Hanks supported Barack Obama in a video message a couple days ago. Hanks supported Bill Clinton when he ran for president and he has also donated money to Hillary Clinton’s campaign.

It seems like several stars in Hollywood are abandoning the Clinton bandwagon. However, Hanks was turned off by that family long ago. Hanks has expressed regret for donating money to Bill’s legal fund after he admitted to having an affair with Monica Lewinsky.

In 1998 he told New York magazine this:

“We gave 10,000 bucks very early on… In all honesty, in the light of events since, it would be awfully hard to say now, ‘Oh, here, let me help you out with this problem.’ “

Hillary Clinton and Elton John exchanged kisses last night at Elton John’s Big Apple fundraiser in NYC at the Radio City Music Hall.

Clinton is a huge Elton John fan and told Extra she can’t pick just one favorite song, “I’ve got a bunch of them. Your Song, Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, Candle in the Wind. There’s a song that’s an omen for the Pennsylvania primary, Philadelphia Freedom.”

Former president Bill Clinton and their daughter Chelsea attended as well. Chelsea was just in the Windy City on Sunday where The Boots Girls caught up with her so if you missed it, click here!
