RE: “What does Ben Quayle’s wife do”? – Judge Crater, call your office. Jimmy Hoffa wants to see you. Where’s my lockbox?

Mr. Wyman,

I don’t know what she does. It sounds like she soared past the glass ceiling shattered by trailblazers such as Hillary Clinton and Michelle Obama.

You may recall that whip smart Hillary was hired by the largest law firm in Arkansas – Is that akin to being the 3rd tallest building in Bentonville? – when her husband became Attorney General. That she became a partner after he was elected Governor is just one of life’s unexplained mysteries. Sort of like the Ozark version of the Bermuda Triangle, don’t you think?

I hope you won’t think me a cad if I point out that Michelle Obama got a $4,000 a week raise – repeat - $4,000 a week raise when her husband was elected to the United States Senate. That’s $200,000 a year. There’s no sense just getting your nose in the trough. Cannonballing off the 10 meter board straight into the slop is the Chicago way to do it. I guess she’d rather be hung for 3 sheep than one goat. Her husband made it OK because he got a $1,000,000 earmark for her employer, the University of Chicago Hospital. That way it could be said that the people of Arkansas helped Michelle to begin to be proud of her country. That we borrowed the money from the Chinese to do it is the subject of a different story. Since WAL*MART is the American satrap of the clever Chinese it is easy to see the Illinois/Arkansas connection.

I guess that’s the way the global economy works.

Try to find out if Ben’s wife is a player.

Get back to me, OK?
