BENNY'S LEGACY DEFILED

Cue the crazy music and run, Hillary, run!

Friends of Hillary last week launched a website, offering supporters everything from coffee mugs to autographed copies of Clinton’s best seller, Living History, in return for donating to the cause.

The site also invites backers to join “Hill’s Angels” and help Clinton fight off attacks by conservatives, whose “hate-filled” methods, it goes on to explain, rely on “the same old politics of personal destruction.”

A quick search for Hill’s Angels led to a website devoted to the late British comedian Benny Hill and the buxom babes he regularly chased around on his jiggle-sex television show.

Hill, the website notes, was always surrounded by “a bevy of lovely ladies … more affectionately known as Hill’s Angels.”

Hillary’s Friends are apparently thinking of changing the name to “Hill Raisers”, although a certain bored ex-Prez might lobby for “Bill’s Angels”.

Have you seen Hillary's legs? She ain't running nowhere.

I sent "Hill" a nice note explaining why she is so disgusting to so many people.

How about the Hillbillies? Billhillies?

And when she realizes she has no place in politics, she can become the new Martha Stewart and put all her cookie recipes in a book titled "Hill's Kitchen."

I just shake my head every time I read of Hillary or Bill railing about the "politics of personal destruction."

Personally, I can't wait for her to run. Think we're a politically divided country now? Hah.

Thanks for the tinny, unpleasant but strangely fascinating MIDI soundtrack. It suited the Friends of Hill perfectly...

Bubba would prbably prefer "The Hoovering Hildebeests".
Donations go towards dry-cleaning.

A bunch of hometown friends raising funds?

You'd have to call it Hill's Hoist, surely.

Rodham's Rowdies? Hill's Shills?

Posted by: Hans Blip at August 7, 2003 at 03:27 PM

Hill-spawn!

Posted by: Hans Blip at August 7, 2003 at 03:29 PM

Rooting for Rodham.

Posted by: pooh at August 7, 2003 at 03:55 PM

Hill's Shrills more likely. Hillary's Harridans? Harlots? Hags? Horrors? Hatfulls? Hermaphrodytes? Henchmen? Hogs? Halfwits? Humbugs?

The Klinton Klutz Klan

Posted by: Habib Bickford at August 7, 2003 at 03:58 PM

The Hill People!

The New York branch of Emily's List.

I left out Harpies, Hypocrites, Honkies, Honkers, Howlers, Hose-Monsters, Hobgoblins and Hysterics.

Posted by: Habib Bickford at August 7, 2003 at 04:15 PM

Forget that. It exists.

Posted by: pooh at August 7, 2003 at 04:16 PM

And Hores.

Posted by: pooh at August 7, 2003 at 04:17 PM

The Hildebeest is fairly reliant on the black vote, so how about Hillary's 'Hos an' Homies?

Posted by: Habib Bickford at August 7, 2003 at 04:50 PM

Coming soon -- "Habib's Herpied Halfwits". Not to mention my own group -- "Buddy's Bumfuckery Bonanza".

I have herpes on my haemorrhoids- it's like having speedbumps.

Sandpaper on your arsegrapes? No wonder so many women hang out here.

Posted by: Buddy Ebsen at August 7, 2003 at 06:00 PM

Mountin' Hill for 2004.

Er, no.

Posted by: pooh at August 7, 2003 at 06:18 PM

Why don't they raffle off some of Bubba's baby batter? He seems to have it backed up to his hairline, and doesn't mind chucking it about, either.

Posted by: Habib Bickford at August 7, 2003 at 08:52 PM

After reading all that I wish PM Howards was as interesting to hang shit on. We've got the "Little Johnny" tag and that's it really, he's too bland to bother I suppose.

This is as funny a misuse of popular culture as the Democratic National Convention that, when Dukakis was nominated, broke out in the Liberty Bell March (aka the Monty Python theme). I expected to see the show's end credits scrolling over Ted Kennedy's face.
