Former president Bill Clinton made a “surprise” appearance tonight at the Golden Globe Awards. He introduced the historical drama flick, “Lincoln,” which of course is really all about him.
Bill Clinton gets a standing "o" as he's introduced to monologue on "Lincoln." No surprise, likens Lincoln's legislative fights to the 90s

Thank goodness, there are still some women out there who think with their lady smarts and not their lady parts:
Bill Clinton's appearance at the Golden Globes confused me, until I remembered his incredible acting performance with costar Monica Lewinsky

Winner of the Golden Globe for Best Irony: Hollywood! For applauding an accused rapist after accusing the GOP of a war on women for a year!

Update — After the show, Dunham basked in the Big Dog glow:
The highlights of my evening (aside from the obvious) were Bill Clinton and Jodie Foster. Also seeing Adele turns out to be like seeing G-d
