Hill Clinton turns husband into a hand puppet...Bill Clinton says, "If you did that before I would have never needed Monica!"

The NY Daily News reported today that Hillary Clinton has slapped her husband with a gag, ordering him not to make any public statements until it has been cleared by her office.

"He knows it's Hillary's time now," said an adviser close to both Clintons who expects to play a key role in her likely 2008 presidential campaign."

This comes after Bill Clinton made statements that disagreed with Hillary's position regarding the Dubai port deal, which he supported.

This was not the first time they have disagreed publicly. Bill has more than once displayed his criticisms of the Iraq war, while his wife supported and continues to support the war.

Politics...it can make War of the Roses look like a spat between June and Ward Cleaver. Fact is, this schism is more likely to hurt Hillary than Bill, who image is frozen in carbonite for both Republicans and Democrats. Hillary has the star power, but like Starbury (that's Stephon Marbury for non-Knick Fans) she's stuck on a losing squad, with great talent but not much team work. Yesterday my father did the 180 regarding his stance on the Democrats now that he's seen pretty much all of them run from Feingold like he had Avian Super AIDS. And for die-hard Democrats and people looking for real opposition, not only is this story pointless it only shows that our leadership way too obsessed in posing rather than action and solutions.
