The worst sitcom I’ve ever seen!

I’m in my Econo Lodge motel room in Montana, and I’m ready for a perfect evening - a tumbler of creme de menthe, the TV Guide crossword puzzle, and some good sitcoms. Maybe “Dick Van Dyke” or “Laverne and Shirley.”

But NO! It turns out the only thing on TV here is reruns of  “Those Darned Clintons,” and I’ve seen every episode! That wacky wife who always wants to be in the show, the nutty husband who makes everybody call him “Mr President” even though he isn’t… 

Yeah, here’s the episode where she sneaks onto the podium at a convention and nominates herself. I’ve seen it. Where’s that freaking remote, anyway?

Yeah, the headshot doesn’t reveal it but Barack was laughing at her, I bet…

Maybe if we ignore the Clintons’ like Denise Richards they’ll all go away!

at least in the United States, President is a title for life, even when you are an “ex-president”.

What is he doing in Billings?

For that matter, what is anyone doing in Billings?

Charlene, they told him that’s where the convention would be. It’s kind of a hazing joke they play on new candidates…
