The basis of the joke is rather simple.

There are three branches of our federal government with different job requirements. Hillary is running for the top executive spot with zero executive experience. Most recent presidents have been governors. (or vice presidents). Only JFK came direct from the legislative branch.

Governors have proven executive experience that can be evaluated. Legislators have very diffuse authority and are therefore difficult to predict their executive capabilities.

Hillary is claiming that being in the White House as the first lady is executive experience. I don't know what, exactly, she did during those eight years. I know she did not attend security briefings as she never had clearances. I know the Clintons will not release complete documentation on what she did during those years.

There is no beefcake in that joke. Hillary is claiming executive experience by marriage. Men never get that option, Brett Favre paid for his expertise with thousands of hard knocks. That is what we find offensive.

"But during those two terms in the White House, Clinton did not hold a security clearance. She did not attend National Security Council meetings. She was not given a copy of the president's daily intelligence briefing. She did not assert herself on the crises in Somalia, Haiti or Rwanda. And during one of President Bill Clinton's major tests on terrorism, whether to bomb Afghanistan and Sudan in 1998, Clinton was barely speaking to her husband, let alone advising him, as the Lewinsky scandal dragged on....

Documents about her work remain classified at the National Archives."
