ORIGINAL: Sanity Again, rml... Monicagate had very little to do with Monica Lewinsky But you cant admit that, can you Not even to yourself. Hillwilliam wrote that "We need to hold politicians to a higher standard" Yet, mention Bill Clinton and the rape / sexual harassment allegations against him in that context and he blows a freakin gasket... Tell you what hill, you go first If you don't approve of Bill Clintons (alleged) rapes and his otherwise (proven) forcing himself onto an unwilling female victim then say so, and say he should have resigned. Otherwise, I can only assume you approve of his jackassery. You either approve of him or you don't. Which is it? Theres only one purpose behind this thread, and thats to try to tie all Tea Partiers in with deadbeat dads No one likes a deadbeat dad, I revile them almost as much as I do rapists and other such lowly fiends But there are leftist deadbeats, female deadbeats, there are all kinds As there are right wing rapists, left wing rapists etc etc etc I dont judge all Dems based on the actions of Bill Clinton though Even if it would be nice to see more leftists man up and condemn him In short, this thread is a sad and pathetic comment on the small person who started it, and its a sad and pathetic comment on those small leftists who then piled on quote:

ORIGINAL: Sanity When leftists say we need to hold politicians to a higher standard, odds are good that they dont mean their own politicians Poll a thousand leftists and see how many of them are willing to admit that "Monicagate" actually stemmed from a sexual harassment lawsuit against Bill Clinton, and the fact that he was convicted of perjuring himself during he proceedings Well let's see what Monica has to say: Lewinsky Tells Her Story - The Canadian Encyclopedia In the interview and in Monica's Story, the tell-all book by British biographer Andrew Morton, Lewinsky finally stepped out on her own - free for the first time to shape her story without most of the strictures imposed by a legal investigation. After being subjected to so much political spin, she was able to do her own spinning, portraying herself as a free-spirited but well-meaning young woman who found herself both in love with the President of the United States and being used by his enemies as a "pawn" against him. She made a point of apologizing to Hillary Clinton and daughter Chelsea "for what they've been through." And in a culture where fame and infamy often seem indistinguishable, she was able to use her metaphorical 15 minutes to start generating some serious money - at least $7.5 million from her book advance, magazine deals and interview fees in Europe. There were few revelations - not surprising for a relationship already exhaustively documented by squads of investigators. Lewinsky, still only 25, did reveal more about her taste for older men. She told Morton that in 1996, while she was involved with Clinton, she had an affair with a co-worker at the Pentagon, a man she identified only as "Thomas." Morton, best known as the conduit for the late Diana, Princess of Wales's account of her failed marriage to Prince Charles in his best-seller Diana: Her True Story, writes that Lewinsky became pregnant and had an abortion. That upset her so much that she sought therapy, and came to understand that she took up with married men because she lacked self-respect. "What I've come to see is that that happened because I didn't have enough feelings of self-worth," she told Walters. "So that I didn't feel that I was worthy of being No. 1 to a man." I'm gonna call you on a bald faced lie Sanity. I have NEVER defended Clinton re: monicagate. You claim the purpose of this thread is to tie all tea partiers to dead beat dads. Im gonna call you on another lie. It was meant to show ONE congressman as a dead beat. You still refuse to answer my question. You claim to revile deadbeat dads and yet you defend this guy. Which is it? Answer my question instead of dissembling, lying and strawmanning.
