Clintons Help Gandolfini Family Speed Return of Body to U.S.

[700UW]

James Gandolfini‘s body is scheduled to return to the U.S. on Monday after the family of “The Sopranos” star enlisted help from Bill and Hillary Clinton in expediting the process of repatriating his remains.

Gandolfini family spokesman Michael Kobold on Sunday morning read a lengthy statement thanking former President Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton for their assistance in speeding up the process that otherwise could have taken seven to 10 days.

Too bad Hillary couldn't get a speedy rescue of our ambassador.

Hillary didn't send that autographed picture you wrote her for? Next time include a campaign check.

When my mother-in-law died in Egypt several years ago in a bus accident, we recovered her body in 5 days working with the State Department.

Maybe you can send a copy of your autographed, picture of Hitlery !

Would you replace your Palin going rogue poster over your bed?

Sorry, Palin's way hotter than Hitlery ! In fact, I'm not sure I would include Hitlery in the female category !

Things like that are what many in congress do for their constituents. That is the stuff that rarely gets reported. I don't know if the process got started with a call to your congress person, but that is what I have done in the past with much success. It is usually dedicated, committed staffers who do the grunt work.

It is amazing what they are willing to do for people who call asking for assistance without telling them that they suck.

I am glad that you were able to get help when you needed it.

My sister-in-law is an attorney for the State Department but she really didn't pull any strings. State was very helpful, thoughtful and a pleasure to work with in our time of need.
