The Wall Street Journal nails it today vis a vis Hillary Clinton and her performance before Congress about her dereliction of duty in Benghazi and in general.
As we watched this exchange, it occurred to us that Mrs. Clinton was back in a familiar role, and an ironic one for someone who is supposed to be a feminist icon. Once again, she was helping the most powerful man in the world dodge accountability for scandalous behavior.
Almost exactly 15 years ago, on Jan. 27, 1998, then-First Lady Clinton went on NBC’s “Today” show amid rumors that her husband had carried on a sexual affair with a lowly subordinate in the Oval Office: “The great story here, for anybody willing to find it and write about it and explain it, is this vast right-wing conspiracy that has been conspiring against my husband since the day he announced for president.”
How vast was the right-wing conspiracy really? With all due respect, what difference does it make? Mr. Clinton had in fact carried on the affair in the Oval Office and lied under oath about it in a sexual harassment lawsuit; he subsequently lied in a criminal investigation as well. As a result, history remembers Mrs. Clinton and Eliza McCardle Johnson (no relation to Ron, as far as we know) as the only women ever married to impeached presidents.
Why buy the cow when the milk is free Hillary baby? We don’t need a blue dress to see evidence of your debasement before powerful men.
I heard someone ask yesterday, “Hey, Bill! How’s Hillary’s head?” Reply: “Monica’s is a lot better.” Pa-dump.
The difference between Monica and Hillary’s version of feminist? At least Monica shuts up and leaves once the deed is done. Hillary does the exact same thing but screeches like a banshee.
This whole mess is hard for Mrs. Clinton to swallow.
Oh,come on!
“Kneel by yer ma-a-a-n!”
Monica was little more than a silly, flattered child. She did “shut up and leave”. Where was the outcry from the feminists? That young woman got a sex act named for her, while Bubba became ever more popular. The left love both Clintons. He’s a pig and his sidekick only gets mad when he gets caught.
You.go.girl!
She ain’t no Tammy Wynette!
funny you say that Scott… I was THIS close to making that the post title. But I didn’t want to besmirch Miss Wynette in bold letters.
“After all, he’s just a man.”
Hey,Texi,this is a family website!The Borgia family,granted…
Wha? I was talking about cabbages.
Ladies and gentlemen, The Aristocrats!
So when foreign leaders give us any gruff, Kerry can sick his Mother Terehza on ‘em. “You are a scumbag, Bibi!”
Playing Ketchup!
John and Teresa…57 positions.
He was against those positions before he was for them. Or is it the other way around? (You know, it’s hard to be a woman).
Those Heinz girls do love their pickles.
What is, is! But what is, is?
