Virgin Pulls Tired ‘Bill’ Card to Promote No-Con Contracts

Virgin Mobile is so naughty. Check out this political spoof ad that features Hillary Clinton looking into the horizon and thinking, “I wish my bill wasn’t so out of control…”

Tagline: “You call the shots.” This is for Virgin’s new “no-con contracts.” (Thanks to Adrants reader Simon for sending it over.)

The ad rings a little like a cheap blow, considering most of Hillary’s Bill troubles went down in the mid-’90s and the poor woman is still suffering humiliations galore. Now that PR guy Penn is trying to divorce himself from Camp Clinton, we bet she wishes she could call a few shots right about now.

On the cheery up, Warren Buffett recently passed Hillary and Obama some kudos. “I would put either one of them in charge of a business,” he said — as long as the business isn’t Berkshire Hathaway.

See? It ain’t all bad, Hillary. You may not get to be POTUS, but you’ll always have a place at GEICO.
