Hillary: The Warrior Princess?

Who knew that Hillary was a hunter?  This week she revealed in a speech that her “dad had taken her hunting when she was a young girl?”  There are many things about Hillary that are hard to imagine (she and Bill conceiving a child comes to mind), but trying to picture the New York senator stalking game with a 12 gauge is very high on the improbable list.  This may rank up there with her earlier claim that she was named after Sir Edmund Hillary following his victorious climb of Mt. Everest.  Of course, the fact that she was born 5 years before the climb shouldn’t stand in the way of a good story.  Presumably, her parents simply referred to her as “the girl” until he made his climb.  I guess they didn’t know any famous hunters back then.  Good thing for her because Irwin would have been an even dumber name than Hillary.  Next she’ll probably regale us with tales from her days at Wellesley, back when she used to roast Armadillos in her dorm room with her hair dryer.
