Bill and Hillary are at the Yankee season opener sitting in the first row, with the Secret Service agents directly behind them.
One of the Secret Service guys leans forward and whispers something to Bill.
At first, Clinton stares at the guy, looks at Hillary, looks back at the agent, and shakes his head.
The agent then says, "Mr. President, it was at the unanimous request of the entire team, from the owner on down to the bat boy. "
Bill hesitates...but begins to change his mind when the agent tells him the fans would love it!
Bill shrugs his shoulders and says, "Okay, if that's what the people want." With that, Bill gets up, grabs Hillary by her collar and the seat of her pants,
lifts her up, and tosses her right over the wall onto the field.
She gets up kicking, swearing, screaming , "I'll kill you! You Mother *%$%**!!!..
The crowd goes absolutely wild. Fans are jumping up & down, cheering, hooting & hollering, and high-fiving.
Bill is bowing, smiling and waving to the crowd.
He leans over to the agent and says, "How about that! I would have Never believed how much everyone would enjoy that!"
Noticing his agent has gone totally pale, he asks what is wrong. The agent replies, "Sir, I said they wanted you to throw out the first "Pitch"
Gentlemen, the time is coming when there will be two great classes, Socialists, and Anarchists. The Anarchists want the government to be nothing, and the Socialists want government to be everything. There can be no greater contrast. Well, the time will come when there will be only these two great parties, the Anarchists representing the laissez faire doctrine and the Socialists representing the extreme view on the other side, and when that time comes I am an Anarchist.
-- William Graham Sumner (1840-1910)
