Suddenly it has become fashionable again in liberal circles to flay Bill Clinton for his sexual misconduct, whether real, alleged, or imagined. Amid the national frenzy swirling around the likes of Harvey Weinstein and Roy Moore, prominent journalists and politicians are competing to display their dudgeon over the former president and things he is said to…
Although dragging the Clinton’s thru the mud one more time is great fun and I love doing it………….
“I read the news today, oh boy….”
>$700 billion dollar military spending bill passed in the Senate yesterday on a voice vote.
>Keystone pipeline sprang a 210,000 gallon leak in S. Dakota.
>Zinke at Interior is keeping few if any records on the costs of his travels.
>Trump reversed a ban on importing dead elephant parts into the USA.
The senator’s, Republicans and Democrats, passed the military funding bill on a voice vote yesterday because they didn’t have the balls to record their vote for the public to see.
They did it because that $700 billion dollars they gave to the military is illegal by law.
Congress passed a law in 2011 which capped the amount of money the military can receive each year.
That law says that they can receive only $549 billion in 2018.
But our elected representatives don’t give a damn about laws and why should they?
They continue to be reelected decade after decade because the system is rigged. Gerrymandering. Billionaires money.
Hell yes he had a public reckoning. And hell no sexual misconduct shouldn’t be condoned.
During the Starr proceeding, Lynda Barry drew an Ernie Pook’s Comeek comic that summed it up well. It was a bunch of kids jumping rope, and the caption read: “Bill and Monica sitting in a tree, doing inappropriate intimacy. Monica told Linda, Linda told Ken. Now I’m telling you and I’m only ten.”
While Clinton certainly prevaricated about Lewinsky, partly in order to avoid telling his wife, his affair was not exactly a predatory attack on an unwilling victim, despite the glaring difference in their age and station. Indeed, she forthrightly portrayed herself as the aggressor and continued to pursue him long after she was transferred from the White House to a job in the Pentagon.
That is one of the slimiest victim blaming examples I have ever seen. The delicate word “prevarication” is perjury. It cost him his law license. Bill Clinton was this woman’s employer. That fact seems to totally escape you.
