“Olmert said what”- The Eavesdropped Chronicles
In case you missed the big news: former Prime Minister Ehud Olmert has once again made the news, and it’s not because he is now too bald for a comb over (you would think that would at least make it to page six).
No, this time it’s about his close aide, Shula Zaken, that eavesdropped on his phone calls during his term as minister of industry, trade and labor (under then Prime Minister Ariel Sharon). How exactly was this plan masterminded? Well when Olmert was on the phone she would touch her ear to indicate to the secretaries to start eavesdropping and taking notes. Or if she couldn’t get her ear touch on she simply drew a circle on her notebook to cue the girls in. Not really creative but it did work.
However while we the public could only imagine the kind of juicy gossip and incriminating information Zaken must have about Olmert (not to mention the other side of the conversations which include Ariel Sharon and Bibi Netanyahu), she claims she can’t remember what the conversations were about. Of course I don’t believe that this info has been lost both in mental notes and the physical ones tucked away in her notebook, I’ve decided to guess what some of the conversations were about.
“Olmer said what”- The Eavesdropped Chronicles as guessed by Molly
- Olmert talks about his frustration with his comb over. The hairs are getting fewer and his hairstylist refuses to work with the thinning pieces. He’s pissed and venting his frustration to anyone that will listen.
- Olmert talks about his house that he plans to buy for a $1. Like any cheap-Jew he goes on and on about the bargain he’s getting and begs the listener to go with him to the $1 and furnish the house with him.
- Olmert plans another trip to the US quoting prices for the same flights in order to scam rich donors out of their money. The conversations sound almost exactly the same but just have different people’s name in it.
- Olmert talks to Sharon about becoming the then Prime Minister’s #2 (not the toilet kind) when forming the new party Kadima. They plan their announcement and Olmert suggests that with the new change maybe Sharon should lose a few pounds to really give the makeover of politics a new face. Sharon hangs up in anger. Olmert calls back begging for forgiveness, offering Sharon a back massage once a day for the next year. Sharon giggles but accepts.
- Olmert calls his daughter to check if she’s still a lesbian. She is and he asks if they are still on for their girls’ night marathon watching L-word.
- Olmert buys a toupee.
- Olmert buys another toupee.
- Olmert calls Sharon to ask him to come over and look at his toupees.
- Olmert and Sharon fight about his ugly toupees.
- Olmert calls his hairstylist.
What did I miss? Tell me what other conversations should be on this list. If Zaken can’t remember then it is our job to jog her memory.
The Big Felafel 
You forgot the one where Olmert called his daughter back to see if she was straight yet and when she said “No, Dad. That’s not how it works. I’m here and I’m queer”, he got so mad that he decided to be a hypocrite homophobe and not defend civil rights in his country when it came time to fight Eli Yishai on his homophobic attack on the Jerusalem Pride March.
Also, you forgot the time he agreed reluctantly to have phone sex with Eli Yishai in exchange for support on his fascist antiquated law proposals. Who is Olmert kidding? He can’t do better than a hottie like Shas’s Yishai.
Molly, I’m loving this post. WE WANT MORE MADE UP YET PROBABLE POLITICAL STORIES!!!!
