"One of the things that heartened me when President Obama asked Hillary to be secretary of state and she said yes, and they developed this -- not just working relationship -- this amazing friendship, which I just watched with great interest, is that they -- they had -- oh, come on, guys. Get a life here."The "oh, come on, guys" reacted to the audience's reaction to "I just watched with great interest." I wish I had the video clip, because it was very clear from the manner of his laughter that he was acknowledging the double entendre and — I think — the idea that people associate him with sexuality.
ADDED: Here's the video:

but no one associates Hillary with sexuality
and Hillary is too old to be linked to Obama that way
Yuck!
this amazing friendship
I think he is lying. Duh. But I suspect we will get a better understanding of that "friendship" during the next year or two.
Here is full video. Too lengthy for me to watch for clip extraction.....
Bill Clinton Howard University Commencement Speech: Hillary Clinton And Obama Developed Amazing Friendship (VIDEO)
Well, the more interesting headline about Clinton-Obama is the one on Drudge right now. It looks like both have been on a mutual destruction path: "If you don't do x for me.. you will live to regret.." (not new and not a surprise). Depending on how Benghazi goes, she may not want to be seen as being so chummy with Obama. Obama retaliating might make her the scapegoat if he has not already done that. Clinton retaliating might leak stuff, like what happened at that 10PM phone call and release other ghosts and skeletons. You see what I mean by mutual destruction?
@Martha,
Did you see Obama kiss Dr. Jill Biden at the 2008 convention? And what about Pelosi smiling silly like she just had orgasm standing next to him? Con men have gone after old(er) women before. But you're right, can't imagine Hillary falling all over him like these other women.
And, if you buy that, I have a bridge for you.
Willie hates Choom because he stole his third term; I can imagine the sort of Segregationist fantasies he must have.

Sexuality, no; lechery, adultery, rape, sleaze - definitely!
Amazing that Billy Bob Clinton held the same office as Lincoln, Washington, TR, and Reagan.
From the Wizard of Oz to the Wiz;
From Lincoln to Clinton;
Astounding;
But 'Tis.
Clinton however was against RACISM!!
So, never mind.
Greatest president, ever, ever.
Their friendship is so amazing they know what each other are thinking without communicating.
Ms. Althouse you are on a roll today. Your blog--or at least the subjects that you're picking today are definitely not safe for family viewing. When you get done dooddling with Bill Clinton, Mike Douglas and such come on back. Until then I'll give your blog a pass.
That's 'Billy Jeff' to you

Don't forget Harding and Cleveland.
"One of the things that heartened me when President Obama asked Hillary to be secretary of state and she said yes, and they developed this -- not just working relationship -- this amazing friendship, which I just watched with great interest, is that they -- they had -- oh, come on, guys. Obama got her a cup of coffee."
In his prime, Bill Clinton was one of the most skillful politicians around. After the Republicans won the house, he acted outraged at their extreme ideas, and demonized them, but then he quietly signed them into law, and took all the credit for the results. They were tarnished with the blame while he basked in the glow of success. This behavior is not at all ethical, but it worked well for him.
"one of most skillful politicians around", my foot.
And the media shilled just as hard for him as it does for Choom.
They saved his ass just the way they've been saving Choom's.
How long that lasts is the question.
Ew, gross.
I think there's something wrong with people to whom it occurs to imagine the president and the secretary of state fucking each other.
The cheating, lying, rapist is still laughing up his sleeve at all of you who let him get away with it.
You love him, and he despises you.
Didn't this guy, lie under oath,while President? Wasn't he disbarred? Sorry, guess not. Maybe, it was all a bad dream.
But I'm being naive aren't I? Nothing is good or bad, its all whether it advances Liberal Amerika.
And that's not a dream.
And Clinton DID support open borders and tax cuts for rich guys, so lets cut him some slack.
Good times:
According to two people who attended that meeting in Chappaqua, Bill Clinton then went on a rant against Obama.
“I’ve heard more from Bush, asking for my advice, than I’ve heard from Obama,” my sources quoted Clinton as saying. “I have no relationship with the president — none whatsoever. Obama doesn’t know how to be president. He doesn’t know how the world works. He’s incompetent. He’s an amateur!”
Billy Jef never liked that uppity negro (Remember Obama would be getting Billy coffee not so long ago, after all) stealing the chance for his wife to be President. Clearly.
"I think there's something wrong with people to whom it occurs to imagine the president and the secretary of state fucking each other. "
You mean you think it's wrong of me to picture Nixon fucking Kissinger?
That hurts my feelings.
I saw a video of Clinton at John Conyers' 72nd birthday party making jokes about marrying Chelsea off to him.
This person should never have been elected to any office anywhere.
George Will nailed it when when he said: "Bill Clinton was not the worst President we have ever had, but he was clearly the worst person to ever serve as President."
And let's not ignore the part where Clinton says, "He was big enough to offer her Secretary of State, and she was big enough to take it." Was the applause that followed for her becoming Secretary of State or for a follow-up unintended double entendre?

My take is different. Bill Clinton did enough damage to the country, but he didn't appeared vindictive or petty like Obama. One could disagree with him without fear that he was a manchurian president whose purpose was to turn the country over to its worst enemies -- in Obama's case the Islamists. From my perspective, the last time the media was anywhere as supportive of a president was with John Kennedy. Kennedy was destructive but he seemed to be genuinely patriotic, so the sell out wasn't as severe.
Its wrong of you to picture Kissinger fucking anyone.
Its called good taste.
I understand the compliment of saying that the American people are very forgiving and yadi yada.
But, that moment, how does Bill Clinton process that and still face a room full of people?
Anybody else would have quietly exited the stage. NO?
Nixon did that, same with Agnew.
I mean, that's Jimmy Swaggart territory, isn't it?
Remember the everybody does it defense... maybe it was true.
Why is Bill Clinton commanding hefty speaking fees?
Maybe it's in the delivery, but on the page this reference does not evoke a sexual connotation. Bill observed that Obama and Hillary had a great friendly working relationship. [A complete lie by the way. The Clintons and the Obamas hate each other.] So what, Clinton is blandly lying as per usual and promoting the image of a united Democrat elite. Another day, another lie. But he's so oversexed (and maybe his audience as well) that he can't help but latch onto, no, completely make up out of thin are, a sexual connotation where there is none.
I did not have political relations with that woman.
