    Note that they were (ahem) women. I don't understand the beret bit, but I've been out of the loop, newswise.

    Here, Trina, this is the picture I almost put with this, and then I decided not to.

    Did you see the way those women shook his hand? If it were me, I'd have given him the biggest hug ever! I'm sure he would have loved that.

    Really, I love Bill Clinton. Despite his sky chasing ways, I think he seems like a good man.

    Ouch! The Esquire photo says it, just more subtly. I think I prefer it.

    Oh my gosh, did they mean to pose him like that for Esquire!? Poor Bill, he will never live that one down.
