Let’s Give Hillary A LeBon

The Washington Examiner has some head ‘sploding details:

A new petition on Change.org calls on the [Nobel] committee to present the prize to Hillary for her work around the world for President Obama and Bill Clinton for his post-presidential international involvement.
“President and Mrs. Clinton have had a lasting impact upon promoting peace in this world. Both have reached out to the poor and economically deprived nations of this world and emphasized the need for tolerance for women’s and minority rights,” reads the new petition.

Well, shag it. Giver her the Nobel for her non-accomplishments as Secretary of State, and a Best Actress Oscar for her performance at the hearings.

This blog, noting that that Nobel backward spells LeBon, hereby presents some Duran Duran to Hillary.

Because, like a 1980s British hair band, “What difference at this point does it make!?”

    BLEAH! ‘Girls on Film” is a bad pairing for Hillary. Maybe “Friends of Mine” or “Union of the Snake” instead.

    5 #WOOTS for the D2 reference.

    We need to stop thinking of opponents and start thinking of candidates (for us).

    Gingrich said: “We blew it because of a party which has refused to engage the reality of American life and refused to take– to think through what the average American needs for a better future.”

    I disagree with him. The multimillionaires in Congress, on both sides, cannot relate to what the average American needs for a better future. The Democrats give to the takers while pretending to care for them. And all our side does is compromise to the point that we’re losing our country.

    No joy for the Rule 5-age?

    To get a Nobel from 2001-2009, it only required symbolic anti-Americanism and anti-Bushism. Madam Secretary has been an unmitigated failure, so she may have to purchase her Nobel like other do.

    She can do like Michael Mann did, and claim that since she’s part of a Nobel laureate’s administration, she’s a co-Nobelist.

    Speaking of Duran Duran, thanks to South Park I think of Rio as a Christmas song.

    Candidates for 2014 first, then we worry about 2016.

    If we’re not sticking just with Duran Duran, then I suggest ELO _Evil Woman_.

    It’s redeemed by having a Rule 5 worthy music video attached to it.

    Be grateful that it wasn’t the rated-R version…

    Or better still, she can fish one out of a cereal box. They make Nobel-os don’t they? Honey Nut or Five fruit flavors or frosted maybe?

    Agreed on that. And you know what? I think that other version was actually X-rated.
