Yesterday, we talked (at length!) about the widely reported Politico scoop claiming that Hillary Clinton pressured the editors at GQ to kill a story about her campaign, using an upcoming cover story on her husband as leverage.
At the time, we chose to focus on the Clintons' role in the dispute, although GQ's unwillingness to stand by their piece—and wimpy refusal to stand tall in the face of obvious external pressure—was also duly noted.
Which is why we're puzzled at new reports alleging that GQ editors leaked the story to Politico themselves. If true, all we can say to them is well done, sirs! You've done your very best to portray Hillary Clinton as a quintessential schoolyard bully. And as a consequence, you come off looking no better than the prototypical geek who—try as he may—can't seem to hold onto his groundbreaking story proverbial lunch money.

Hillary Clinton appeared on Letterman last night and presented her top ten campaign promises. Hiring funnier speech writers was not on the list.
Full list after the jump.

• Lindsay texts LC's ex to tell him she wants sex and a Big Mac. Related: Brandon "Small-Fry" Davis still not getting any.
• Turns out Hillary Clinton is as good at stand-up comedy as she is at wearing pastel colored pants suits!
• Diddy takes five minutes out of his busy, party-hopping schedule to pretend to be a loving dad.
• Jason Giambi can take all the steroids he wants, but that still won't prevent a a pipe from bursting. in his Upper East Side apartment. Or, you know, small testicles.
• It will take more than $25 million to get rid of Kevin Federline, who continues to be the annoying thorn in Britney Spear's Hebraic side.
• In shocking news, it turns out that the always-crazy, future Scientologist Jim Carrey is "unpredictable" on set.
• Although Project Runway's Tim Gunn is leaving the Parson's School of Design, he vows to "make it work" and return to set next season.

In a surprising turn of events, Hillary Clinton earns top rankings in New York City's most recent "Best-Dressed" list. The MILF edged out Knicks' coach Isiah Thomas, "female-first" homemaker Martha Stewart, and the birthday girl, Katie Couric herself.
Also crackingthe top ten were rapper Mos Def, Ivanka Trump, Andrew Giuliani, Charlie Rangel, Rachael Ray and Jon Stewart. Mariah Carey lead the way in the worst-dressed category, followed closely by Mayor Bloomberg, Headth Ledger and Michelle Williams, Mario Batali, Lil' Kim and Lindsay Lohan.
But far more interesting than the actual winners (and losers) was the reasoning behind the decision-making process. Check out this sampling, below:
KATIE COURIC: She may not be everyone's favorite correspondent but Couric sure can dress…
IVANKA: Little Miss Trumpshine is everywhere these days, from the parties at the Met to the pages of Stuff. But whether she's buttoned up or bosomed out, she manages to look fab.
MARIAH CAREY: Someone stole the belly off of every single outfit in her wardrobe!
MARIO BATALI: Love the man and his food dearly, but after a decade of shorts, vests and plastic sandals - with socks! - Batali's party-king uniform is wearing thin, just like that pony tail.
Not sure we agree with some of the top-picks, but definitely approved of the bottom-feeders. Way to go, Daily Snooze! Here's to hoping the fashionably-challenged will take this piece as a wake-up call!
• It's normally difficult to explain why life in Queens is so crappy. Add a blackout to that and you've got a real challange on your hands. [NYT]
• A party in a glass house? Can we send Paris Hilton? Y'know, just in case the roof collapses or something? [NYO]
• According to the Daily News, only one incident occured in the regional area worthy of their coverage (unless our browser's f'd up) and that incident is a Hilary Clinton bribing scandal. [NYDN]
• See, we always thought those Cipriani guys must have had something going on on the side. We just didn't know it was something so lucrative as health insurance scams. [NYP]
Now that it's totally in to push the racial envelope, people are saying some pretty crizazy stuff. Especially yesterday, which was Martin Luther King Day, pretty much anything politicians wanted to say about black people, went.
But who went there, and who's just lost it? Chris Rock told everyone at the Golden Globes they only had to be nice to black people for two more hours. Nobody really laughed, but he went there.
Hillary Clinton, on the other hand, lost it. In a speech for the Martin Luther King ceremony, the senator claimed that, "the way the House of Representatives has been run, it has been run like a plantation," and then just told people, "and you know what I'm talking about."
Nope, sorry Hil, we hate the admin, too, but we haven't really seen signs of cotton picking or slave trading lately.
Then, of course, there was the Mayor of New Orleans himself, Ray Nagin, with his astute comments on things that had little to with Martin Luther King or equality:
"Surely God is mad at America … surely he is upset at black America also. We're not taking care of ourselves.
It's time for us to come together. It's time for us to rebuild New Orleans _ the one that should be a chocolate New Orleans," the mayor said. "This city will be a majority African American city. It's the way God wants it to be. You can't have New Orleans no other way. It wouldn't be New Orleans."
Now, is that racist against blacks or against everyone else? "Chocolate city" is not really kosh, but neither is telling non-blacks that New Orleans doesn't want them. But, then again, the mayor then proceeded to explain his imaginary conversation with MLK — so, this guy really lost it.
Politicians, comedians, everyone, do us a favor. Stop tarnishing the eloquent Dr. Martin Luther King Jr with your mind-numbing, nonsensical speeches that try to prove you're one of the people. Ok? Seriously, that's our job.
