I guess Chelsea is no better than her mom at handling tough questions. The person was asking if her mother’s credibility was in doubt because at the time, Hillary was adamant that Bill was not fooling around with Monica. She was only taking her husband’s word for it, and I think it’s a pretty dumb question myself but I also think it’s astounding that, “None of your business” was Chelsea’s best answer.
Like she never thought this might come up? After more than a year on the campaign trail she didn’t already have a statement ready that would defuse the question instead of elevating it to most-watched status on YouTube?
Update: While Chelsea was ducking, her dad was talking tough. Just not about his family.
“You know, I don’t give a rip about all this name calling that’s going on,” [Clinton] said.
“If a politician doesn’t wanna get beat up, he shouldn’t run for office,” the former president said. “Let’s just saddle up and have an argument. What’s the matter with that?”
Giddy up.
It’s funny, if that admittedly poor question had been ask directly to Hillary instead of her daughter, I don’t think I would have minded it, but asking Chelsea just leaves a bad taste in my mouth.
Yeah she is a segregate but somethings are just third rail.
Yeah! Let’s dump on Chelsea ’cause her father screwed around! That’ll teach those Clintons!!
So this went from a sort of even-handed site about political stuff to a Clinton-bashing site in the past few days? So another part of the allegedly progressive blogosphere hops on the MSM bandwagon?! See you at the McCain inauguration.
1. BAD question, REALLY bad.
2. BAD RESPONSE, REALLY bad.
It’s EVERYONES business when your president does something while in office. Sorry Chelsea, it COMES with the territory!!!
The only think Chelsea may have done different is add a pregnant pause Here * “None of your * business” thus adding the virtual “fuckin’” other than that … PERFECT!
I think she’s cool.
& BTW ~ FUCK that little james “cue ball” carville for that judas crack & for gerneral principals!
Check out the douche bag college student “kevin STRANGE” that asked the stupid question.
Hmmm… how “STRANGE” . . .
I have no problems with Chelsea’s answer. It should have been Bill and Hillary’s answer back in the 90’s. It IS no one’s business. Her parents have left her out to dry and she is an adult stumping for her mother, she must answer and respond to every question. But, Chelsea handled this one correctly.
Since when is it up to a child to defend their parent’s relationship, or how and when they have sex? I’d be appalled if anyone ever asked me about my parent’s love life, and I’d especially be appalled if anyone asked my son about my love life. It’s no one’s business! Not EVER!
Chelsea’s answer was spot on and should become rote for every politician. The fact she absconds from every question from every news person is wrong. But her “None of your business” was the right answer.
After seeing this jerk (kevin strange)in action on Dan Abrams. IMO~ he was on a mission ie a dare publicity or some prurient interest.
“None of your business” [ass hole](applause)
I’ve seen on other sites comments about Chelsie being an adult and if she is going to put herself out there she should answer all questions. Funny nobody ever asks the Bush twins about their Dad’s past boozing and drug use. And more importantly, what is he snorting these days?
