This article reminded me of my sister's insipid trope about Hillary Rodham Clinton.

Screw the article. Here's my story.

My sister wanted to demonstrate to our mother how politically savvy she was. She told Mom that Hillary was a lesbian. (Clutch the pearls!) Mom, employing her usual Socratic Method, asked my sister how she knew that. And my sister triumphantly stated that Bill and Hillary Clinton had separate bedrooms at the White House. And that was it.

After a pause, Mom, in her ill-suppressed frustration and exasperation, retorted, "Your parents live in separate bedrooms right now. Where are you going with this . . . . "

That shut up my sister.

And I still love that story.
