The New York Times is running an in depth article on page one today about the Clinton marriage.   And if you like puff pieces, this is a doozy.   But how is this news?   Why is it important at all, let alone now?   And are we really supposed to believe the Clintons spend their time together gardening and playing scrabble?

The paper recognizes that the Clinton marriage had troubles after the Lewinsky scandal.   But the jist of the piece is to show that they're past that now.   After all, the couple has a "complex relationship" which is understandable since they are very complex and very busy people.   What about Bill's other marital indiscretions?   If you can describe the Clinton marriage simply by calling it complex, I suppose you'd have to do the same for the Sopranos!   Oh wait, that's fictional.   The Clinton's marriage is real!

"I'm so grateful to you, Bill, wherever you are."
