Excuse me while I have a good laugh at the story that Bill Clinton is threatening to sue the Osso Buco restaurant, in Greenwich Village, for displaying a photo of the owner and Chelsea Clinton in the front window.

Excuse me again while I go out on the web and check Chelsea's birth year:  1980!

Excuse me, Bill, I know you've tried your best all these years to make Chelsea a public non-person.  But what on earth makes you think you can sue on behalf of your 27-year-old daughter?   Is she non compos mentis and this is the bassackward way we all find out, or what?

Excuse me, but Chelsea's a big girl now, Pops.  I don't think the owner laced her Barolo with goofy juice and hypnotized her into posing with him -- or worse.  But if she does feel offended, used, or invaded, she can initiate legal action herself.  You yourself, however, can't shelter her under your petticoats anymore.

Welcome to liberalville!Welcome to the land of "I'm your father Bill and your too stupid to do anything on your own so you'd better let me do it for you".Ironically this is also the place where huge law firms via their huge campaign contributions to the Democratic party has won the right to sue anyone for anything.
BTW,aren't all pics of presidents,ex-presidents and their kin considered public domain?

"Considered public domain" only in the sense that pictures taken in public do not constitute an invasion of privacy. They aren't "public domain" in the sense that they can be freely copied and distributed. Those rights still belong to the photographer.

Certainly this picture doesn't sound like an invasion of anyone's privacy. Chelsea must have consented to pose with the owner.

This incident speaks to the overprotective nature of one particular public figure. Your further comments about "liberalville" are purely partisan extrapolations and have no basis in the facts of this specific incident.

Here it is again, Whiskey-Tango-Foxtrot??

Chester, I mean Cheslea, posed with the owner, maybe he should be the one doing the suing. I would not want to be in a picture with any of the three of those Arkansas Hillbillys. Especially if it was posted where the public could view it. iccckkk!!

I think if Mr. Clinton wants to sue anyone for using his daughter's photo image, his money would be better spent suing the tabloids....

And Chelsea Clinton is an adult: she should be the one suing, not her daddy.
