Has anyone here read Blood Feud? The excerpts seems like a bunch of hearsay with no
validity.
WASHINGTON -- Hillary Clinton has a penchant for drinking wine and dropping F-bombs. And if President Barack Obama had his way, he'd gorge on fudge and potato chips and go to bed alone.
That's according to Ed Klein's new book, Blood Feud, the latest installment from an author notorious for his loosely sourced depictions of the Clintons and the Obamas. On Sunday, BuzzFeed offered the nine most insane passages from the book. Since we couldn't do that again, The Huffington Post has pulled out the 10 most hilarious quotes. Read them out loud. Or, better yet, re-enact them in a video and send your dramatic readings our way. We'll post them below!
Here they are, in no particular order:
10. Klein writes that "Hillary did undergo a small nip and tuck shortly after the State Department," after Bill Clinton "had been on her case to do something about her sagging neck." It didn't end there. Klein writes that Bill advocated "a complete makeover" that ditched her signature pantsuits for “power outfits.” Then it gets really weird:
“Dowdy and old doesn’t win the White House these days,” he told Hillary, according to her friend.
To which his wife responded, “Fuck you. Get your own face lift.”
And that’s exactly what Bill did. He went to a Beverly Hills plastic surgeon and got a platysmaplasty, or neck lift. He also received Botox treatments and had work done on his bulbous red nose.
“I was starting to look like W.C. Fields,” he joked afterward.
9. At a dinner at a French bistro in New York, Hillary Clinton got very dishy with about a half-dozen women, Klein writes. Amid cursing Obama (she calls him a motherf---er, per Klein's retelling of the affair) and enjoying some Chateau Hyot Castillon Cotes de Bordeaux and Croix de Basson rose, the topic turned to her potential 2016 presidential bid. Here is what she says, according to Klein.
Now we are going to be together on the campaign trail, and it’s going to be complicated. Plus, there is the dynamic that when I run for president I'm going to be the boss, and I'm not sure Bill will be able to handle that. He says he’ll be my adviser and loving husband, but I'm afraid that if I'm elected, he'll think he's president again and I'm first lady. If he starts that shit, I’ll have his ass thrown out of the White House.
8. Desserts come and, naturally, the topic turns to Benghazi. Hillary Clinton dishes a bit more to her friends, Klein writes.
Bill was very disappointed in my performance. In fact, he was shattered. But we don’t fight anymore. We’ve gotten past that years ago. We accept each other as we are and chase our collective dream. All that shit of throwing things at him and yelling is in the distant past.
7. Klein writes that the Obamas sleep in different beds, and while they don't take antidepressants, a doctor has recommended they should. When staying at Blue Heron Farm in Martha's Vineyard, he adds, the pattern persisted. Klein quotes an anonymous "domestic servant" at the farm:
"The president ate in bed. You had to change the sheets every day. He smoked cigarettes and didn’t try to hide it at all. And he snores. I heard him. He ate a lot of junk food, chips and stuff. He loved fudge and bought it from Murdick’s Fudge. It was a wonder he stayed so thin."
6. Here, Klein quotes Bill Clinton discussing Obama, citing a source he describes as "someone who was present at the gathering and spoke on condition of anonymity."
