BARACK OBAMA:
Ma, I am a boy (Obama.) I am!
TONY BLAIR:
Red eel Blair - a malarial bleeder.
BILL CLINTON:
The apologetic Democrat says:
Not nil: Clinton
Slapdash, self-royal Clinton's not nil. Clay or flesh, sad pals?
Re: media coverage of his administration
So snide! Pork cuts are not nil. Clinton era stuck, roped in. SOS!
Stab! Mock! Cuts are not nil. Clinton era, stuck, combats.
Emil: "Slam it. Power bastion not nil, Clinton. No, it's a brew - optimal slime."
AL GORE:
Rush Limbaugh says:
Flog sad loser Al. Gore, zero, glares, old as golf.
Tipper replies: Rot! Aid Al Gore - hero, gladiator.
The press is undecided:
Red now, rotund Al Gore? Zero, glad nut, or wonder?
Rail, rotund Al Gore: hero, glad nut or liar?
But all agree his charisma is the key. Republican version:
Aide malarial from Al Gore: zero glamor, flair ala media.
Democratic version:
Aide malarial from Al Gore: hero glamor, flair ala media.
Politically incorrect version, from aide's point of view:
Nips delirial from Al Gore: zero glamor, flair. I led spin.
DONNA SHALALA:
The reader is left to imagine the context of this palindrome:
"Al! Al! " "Ah, Shalala!"
OR
"Al! Al! Ah." - Shalala
BOB DOLE
Liar emits a snaky Dole melody, Kansas time. Rail!
Senile few: era emits a snaky Dole melody, Kansas time. Are we felines?
Resold, Dole ire tame materiel. Odd loser!
Dole vs. Ted Kennedy:
Despot Bob tops Ed.
Derail sad Dole - crap parcel, odd as liar Ed.
JACK KEMP
When Bob Dole heard that the choice of Kemp infuriated Al Gore, a reporter heard him say:
Dam! Slap me, Kemp! Al’s mad!
