You might only have a couple more months to watch Chelsea Clinton on NBC.

She signed a contract for only 90 days and is only obligated to provide the network with two more stories, since her Dec. 12 debut.

There was huge anticipation and some sources even say that she was "set up for a fall" after NBC "created unrealistic expectations" when they made the announcement in November that she was to become a full-time special correspondent.

While NBC News prez says that her work is wanted on Rock Center and Nightly News, he didn't mention that her 90-day contract would be extended.

NO?! What?! NO!!!!

Yesterday, former President Bill Clinton sat down with the ladies of The View and of course, the topic of his wife, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, came up. As the country gears up to get into the 2012 election, the ladies were curious if Hillary, who ran against President Obama last term, would consider running again in 2016.

Sadly, Bill shot down the rumors of his wife's run, reiterating her platform that she didn't even want to go for the Oval Office the first time. He explained:

This is such a momentous step in the right direction.

Better late than never!

The gay community should feel some pride for the Obama administration as the President issued a memorandum today announcing that the U.S. will use a wide-range of efforts to promote rights for gay and lesbians around the world. President Obama has direct his U.S. agencies abroad to being using tactics to compact attempts by foreign governments to criminalize homosexuality and to give much needed assistance to gay refugees seeking asylum from their governments.

In a statement about his new initiative, Obama said:

This is such a HUGE, inspiring step forward.

Hillary Clinton spoke at the United Nations offices in Geneva on Tuesday and announced the Global Equality Fund, backed by her and President Obama, which is a new global initiative to support gay rights.

The U.S. has committed $3 million to a fund that will work to support LGBT rights worldwide.

In her speech, she said:

"It is a violation of human rights when people are beaten or killed because of their sexual orientation, or because they do not conform to cultural norms about how men and women should look or behave.

It is a violation of human rights when governments declare it is illegal to be gay or allow those who harm gay people to go unpunished. It is a violation of human rights when life-saving care is withheld from people because they are gay, or public spaces are out of bounds to people because they are gay.

Being gay is not a Western invention. It is a human reality."

Yes! Yes! Yes! This is such a momentous occasion and is most definitely a day to remember. We can't even begin to tell you how proud we are of our country for finally taking such an important step forward in human rights and equality. Brings tears to our eyes.

Um, ya-huh! We're fairly convinced their isn't a role on Earth Meryl Streep couldn't play if she wanted to. Given the fact that she even bares a similar resemblance to the former First Lady is just the icing on the cake.

This weekend, Meryl was honored at the Kennedy Center along with Neil Diamond, Barbara Cook, cellist Yo-Yo Ma and jazz saxophonist Sonny Rollins. During Streep's presentation, Writer Nora Ephron spoke of her friend's talent and skill. She then implied that her versatility along with the aforementioned resemblance makes it "inevitable" that she would one day play the secretary of state, Hillary Clinton. Hilary, who was in the audience for the occasion, simply laughed the joke off, but Meryl took the challenge quite seriously, standing up to get a better look at the diplomat for herself to see if she could pick out the similarities between them.

Yeah, we think the world is ready for a flick about the Clinton administration. Get Meryl on board and Darrell Hammond for Bill and let's put on a show!!!
