The Subway Diary Analyzes Current Events

I've had middling luck divining anagrams to explain recent events. Yes, you can pull "Clitoris Wolf" from "William Jefferson Clinton," but that leaves letters left over for "Jam in Fennel." What do jam or fennel have to do with national scandal? Hillary Rodham Clinton turns into the cryptic, questioning sentence, "Hi, Hon. Randy troll claim?" Perhaps the randy troll is Monica Lewinsky.

Lewinsky's name rearranges itself into an illuminating "Loins came winky." Paula Corbin Jones ends up as "Ran oral coup jail." That doesn't sound good.

Kenneth Starr's name becomes telegraphic advice to his opponents: "Rent shark net."

And coming back to Clinton himself, he can alternately turn into "Jilt non-welfare film coins," "Fine fin major swollen clit," and my favorite, "Jowl can flirt if semen loin."

More astute political analysis to follow from Paul Ford's (Frau Plod's) Subway Diary (I: raw, busy day).

Note: Jim Esch adds the very brilliant "I yank some W. Clin." as an anagram for Monica Lewinsky's name.
