| Former President Bill Clinton's half-brother Roger is accused of standing by and watching as two women fought each other in his California home last year.[Snip] Ms Connelly's lawyer says she has known Roger, who was codenamed 'Headache' by the Secret Service because of his propensity to get into trouble, for about a decade. She's seeking more than $500,000 from Mr Clinton and the woman who allegedly attacked her, the National Enquirer reported. The self-employed 36-year-old says Mr Clinton invited her over to his Torrance, California, house to cook rice for him and offered her

Ms. Connelly I'm sure there's something you get paid $150 for but I doubt it's cooking. She was convicted in 2009 for felony theft. According to the Enquirer 'Headache' just likes to watch girls beat each other up. Such a classy family.

That photo of Ms. Connelly says she does more than 'cook rice' for a living. Maybe Roger would have preferred a rasslin' match between the two chicks in a swimming pool of chocolate pudding.
I agree with #2's assessment.

In exchange for $150.00 it is more likely that she was hired to cook a Clinton "wiener" rather then rice!
He might have been juiced up and erroneously called two competing "cooks".

An elderly Catholic nun and two peace activists have been convicted for damage they caused while breaking into a US nuclear defence site. Sister Megan Rice, 83, Michael Walli, 64, and Greg Boertje-Obed, 56, admitted cutting fences and entering the Y-12 site in Oak Ridge, Tennessee, which processes and stores uranium. The incident last July prompted security changes. Sister Megan said she only regretted having waited 70 years to take action. A jury deliberated for two and a half hours before reaching its verdict. The three face up to 20 years in prison after their conviction for sabotaging the plant

Prince Harry arrives in Washington today at the start of a seven-day tour of the US which will add to the sense of a changing of the guard within the Royal family. [Snip] The centrepiece of the visit will be a two-day stop in Colorado Springs where Harry will watch a British team competing in the Warrior Games, a Paralympics-style event for wounded service personnel. Before that he will visit the Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Washington DC to see its pioneering work with wounded soldiers, sailors and airmen, and will lay wreaths in the Arlington National Cemetery

I understand from a couple of well-placed sources that David Cameron will be flying to Washington next week to meet with Barack Obama. The meeting is scheduled for Monday, though the trip is expected to be brief. Curiously, it has also not been publicly announced. Inevitably Syria will be top of the agenda for Cameron, as will counter-terrorism issues in the wake of the Boston bombing. Iran and North Korea will also likely be key topics of discussion. This will be the PM’s first trip to Washington since his March 2012 visit, which took place against the backdrop of

I´ve just been watching the riveting live coverage of Congress´s investigation into the Benghazi disaster in which US ambassador Chris Stevens was murdered by Al Qaeda affiliates while the Obama administration stood by and let it happen. What becomes clearer than ever, listening to the testimony of America´s most senior surviving man on the ground Greg Hicks, is that the whole business reeks of the most concerted presidential cover up since Watergate.

The Super Bowl trespassing case filed by Jenny Sanford against Mark Sanford has been settled, with Mark Sanford admitting he is “in contempt for this and previous instances of trespassing” into Jenny Sanford’s home. In a consent order filed today in Charleston County Family Court, both sides said the agreement means “a full resolution” of the dispute. Another point in the settlement is that Mark Sanford will pay $5,000 to take care of Jenny Sanford’s fees and legal costs. And, if Mark Sanford does breach the agreement or the no trespassing stipulations of their divorce, “defendant waives

Fundamentals matter in American politics, and Tuesday reaffirmed what political studies have shown: There’s a direct relationship between a congressional district’s partisan makeup and its vote totals. Unlike presidential elections, where economic conditions and personal factors can have a bigger impact on the outcome, political scientists know that the “normal vote”--the portion of the vote a congressional candidate is expected to receive based on the district partisanship--is the best predictor of congressional election results. Just six months back, GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney won an 18-percentage-point victory over Barack Obama in the 1st Congressional District. Based on

Fifty-five people have been killed in the north-east of Nigeria in co-ordinated attacks by the Boko Haram militant group, the Nigerian army says. It said 105 prisoners were freed in the pre-dawn raid in Bama, Borno state. Bama´s police station, military barracks and government buildings were burned to the ground, said the military and witnesses. Correspondents say extremist attacks are common in the region but the scale of bloodshed makes this raid stand out. This strike--coming on the back of other deadly attacks--undermines the suggestion that the military operation against the militants has diminished the threat they pose, says the

Former Gov. Mark Sanford completed the trail to political redemption Tuesday with a win over Democrat Elizabeth Colbert Busch to reclaim his old seat in Congress. Sanford defeated Colbert Busch 54 percent to 45 percent, according to full unofficial results. Turnout was heavier than expected, with about 32 percent of the district’s 455,702 registered voters casting ballots. Sanford, who has never lost an election, returns to the 1st District seat he held for three terms from 1995-2001.

Lord Lawson has become the most senior Tory yet to argue that we should quit the EU. What does that tell us about the state of politics that this is a newsworthy event? "Not only do our interests increasingly differ from those of the eurozone members but, while never ‘at the heart of Europe’, we are now becoming increasingly marginalised as we are doomed to being consistently outvoted by the eurozone bloc." Lord Lawson knocked back any suggestions that there would be "a heavy economic cost, making this unwise" because "the economic gains would substantially outweigh the costs."

Republican lawmakers, who have spent months seeking to tie President Obama to last year’s deadly attack on the U.S. diplomatic mission in Benghazi, are increasingly focusing their probe on a new target: former secretary of state Hillary Rodham Clinton. The GOP-led investigation of the Sept. 11, 2012, assaults that killed U.S. Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens and three others now centers heavily on the State Department and whether officials there deliberately misled the public about the nature of the assault. Three State Department officials are scheduled to testify before a House committee on Wednesday about the Benghazi attack and its aftermath.

The White House on Wednesday stood by its story that the Obama administration remained unsure exactly who was responsible for the attack on the U.S. diplomatic post in Benghazi nearly five days after it occurred even though new revelations show Ansar al-Sharia’s direct involvement. Gregory Hicks, the deputy chief of mission at the U.S. Embassy in Libya and a self-described whistleblower, testified before a Congressional committee Wednesday that the body of Ambassador J. Christpher Stevens was missing for hours during the attack after being dragged out of the diplomatic post in Benghazi.

There was tragic incompetence, plainly, in the Obama administration’s handling of the Benghazi attacks, and even possibly some political calculation. It is a record that may well come to haunt Hillary Clinton, the first Secretary of State to lose an ambassador in the field in more than three decades, if she runs for president in 2016. But the obvious Republican effort to turn this inquiry into the Democratic (Obama) version of the Iraq intelligence scandal that has tarred the GOP since the George W.

British physicist Stephen Hawking has dropped plans to attend a major international conference in Israel in June, citing his belief that he should respect a Palestinian call to boycott contacts with Israeli academics. The University of Cambridge released a statement Wednesday indicating that Hawking had told the Israelis last week that he would not be attending "based on advice from Palestinian academics that he should respect the boycott." University officials said they had "previously understood" that Hawking´s decision was based solely on health concerns — he is 71 and has severe disabilities — but had now been told otherwise by Hawking´s office.

Ahead of the Benghazi hearings in which three witnesses are set to testify before the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, Fox & Friends co-host Brian Kilmeade invited Fox News analyst Lt.

Peters was unflinching in his criticism of the “cowardly” Obama administration — and the “establishment media” that aids it. “Is this a national security coverup?” Kilmeade asking, explaining that the witness testimony is expected to say the administration was deceitful in its handling of the situation. “The administration, facing the election, went into panic mode, wanted to contain it,”

Fans of Glenn Beck are complaining about what I wrote yesterday about his speech at the National Rifle Association convention, where he used a giant image of Michael Bloomberg photoshopped into what appeared to be an image of Hitler with his arm raised in a Nazi salute and wearing an armband. The Beck crowd now tells me that it wasn’t Hitler’s picture into which the New York mayor was transposed but that of Communist leader Vladimir Lenin. They say that means I owe Beck an apology along with the Anti-Defamation League and others who were also outraged by it.
