Coconuts, or just nuts?

Something about Hillary Clinton's story regarding Chelsea and the coconut seemed familar...I think it was the rhythm, the cadence of the story as HRC told it. It was the same rhythm and cadence as the story that had her and Chelsea running for cover from snipers.

As HRC tells the story, it was the Clintons' habit to do a group activity, (hitting tennis balls, going to a movie) every Wednesday night. Chelsea had said she'd heard about coconuts but hadn't seen one. So on one of these Wednesday evenings, they went to a store, bought a coconut used a hammer and threw it on the driveway, unable to get it open.

This didn't seem normal. Chelsea Clinton was born in 1980. Bill Clinton retook the governorship in 1982. He remained the governor until he became president. Does any governor, or governor's spouse do any of the grocery shopping? Is there no cook, or other servant in the Governor's Mansion?

I think this is a lie. I think it's a stupid lie. By a stupid woman, who really believes she's smarter than she ever bothered to be. It's a shame.

With their fancy educations, why weren't they smart enough to ask the help?
