Bob Schieffer: Rape Accusers Had ‘Some Relationship’ with Bill Clinton
Breitbart ^ | October 10. 2016 | Joel Pollack

Posted on 10/10/2016 9:51:48 AM PDT by COUNTrecount

CBS News’ veteran anchor Bob Schieffer expressed outrage Sunday that Republican nominee Donald Trump focused attention on the women who accused former President Bill Clinton of rape and sexual assault.

“How have we come to this? This is supposed to be a campaign for the most powerful office of the land. Here we’re marching in women into the hall who supposed to have some relationship with one of the candidate’s spouses. What’s that supposed to prove?”

The “relationships” that the women had with Bill Clinton allegedly included rape and violent sexual assault.

“We were not willing participants,” said rape accuser Juanita Broaddrick at a press conference preceding the debate. “These were crimes.”

Another accuser, Kathleen Willey, said: “These are not infidelities. A rape is not an infidelity. These are crimes. Any other people would be in jail … This is no longer about infidelities, indiscretions, girlfriends, sex, interns — none of those. This is about a serial rapist, a predator, and his wife who has enabled his behavior all of these years.”

Broaddrick and Willey joined Paula Jones and Kathy Shelton — who was the 12-year-old victim of a rape in a case where Hillary Clinton gleefully defended the accused — in the front row of the debate. Schieffer was indignant that Bill Clinton’s “relationship” should have been in focus, even as the Clinton campaign and the debate moderators accused Donald Trump of “sexual assault” for jokes he made in 2005 about groping women.

“I mean this is what they do in Banana Republic. This is the United States of America,” Schieffer said.

Media support of the democrats is not about ideology. It’s about stature. Their (the media’s) stature. They have a symbiotic relationship with the democrats. They protect the democrats, and the democrats treat them as they treat someone like Streisand - as VIPs. They like being VIPs. Trump treats them like reporters. He doesn’t massage their egos, and he threatens the very foundation of the Washington insider culture upon which they’ve built their careers.

“Does anybody have the slightest doubt that had these women had allegations about Trump that they would be plastered across every news channel 24/7 with non stop interviews, and eleventy billion dollar book deals?”

Oh, of course. The Venezuelan Miss Universe being a perfect example.

Bob, it’s supposed to prove that Hillary is an enabler to a predator and will gladly be an accessory to wrong-doing for material gain and political power.

If anyone is curious about the Kathy Shelton story, the tape of Clinton laughing about aspects of the events is available online. If anyone is interested in the facts concerning Clinton's defense of a man who violently raped a 12 year-old girl, here is an overview. Some of what I will tell you is not what the opponents of Clinton are saying, they are sensationalizing some of it. She was asked to defend this man by a judge who was a donor to her husband's campaigns. He had ever right to a fair defense and she agreed. The rape was violent and though some say Shelton was in a comma for a few days, I have seen nothing to back that up. She was traumatized and required 5 years of intensive therapy. Her reproductive organs were damages so badly by the attack,she did lose the ability to have children. A key element of the case was that there had been a portion of her underpants tested, semen was found matched her attacker. For some odd reason that section of the underpants was cut out. After Clinton was brought in, the semen-stained part of the underpants were conveniently lost by the crime lab? (Over the years, this pattern of unusual events that help the Clintons is beyond the odds of coincidence). I'm convinced that once Clinton was brought in, they wanted her to look good, so they made sure the key evidence was lost. Clinton also provided an affidavit with unsubstantiated claims that the 12 year old was known to like older men and fantasized about them, that adolescent girls romanticize about sex, but we are talking about a 12 year-old. She gave no names of people who told her that Shelton liked older men etc. Clinton wanted to send the remaining portion of the underpants to NY. Of course in AR they had already tested the entire garment and only found semen in the area lost. So it was obvious the lab in NY would find nothing. When Clinton got that report back, she took it to the prosecutor and said "I have a guy in NY who is willing to testify on her client's behalf for what he sees as a "miscarriage of justice". In the radio interview she then laughs, as she knows he's guilty and this guy from NY thinks if the guy is tried it's a "miscarriage of justice. The guy in NY had no idea the semen stained portion of the underpants had been lost. Her guy in NY thinks they are trying to railroad this poor guy with no evidence. Both the radio host and Clinton think this is funny. So they have to drop the charges to fondling, he pleads guilty and only gets 1 year, but he was in prison for two months, so he's released for time served. She thinks that's kind of cool and seemed proud of that,almost cocky. The other laugh people are talking, is when in the earlier interview she says her client took a polygraph and passed it, "which forever destroyed her faith in polygraphs." She knew he raped her, the semen they found confirmed it and she's laughing about passing the polygraph. The bottom line was that this women's life was ruined and Clinton was very cavalier about the entire incident. She said nothing about the poor 12 year-old girl. For someone who talks about defending women's rights and every women who is assaulted should be believed, it's hard to believe she would take this case. People found the unsubstantiated smearing of a 12 year-old rape victim in the affidavit, as questionable, if not unethical. The laughing about aspects of this very sad case is also troubling. But as you can tell from the two interviews, it's always about Clinton, what makes her look good, regardless of who she's hurting, even a 12year-old. There's an arrogance about it all, a look-how-well-I-played-this attitude in her comments. So proud of getting the monster off with only 2 months served. Lawyers often boast about how great they are, especially when they get off guilty clients. But even the most vulgar of them doesn't brag about getting off someone who violently rapes a 12 year-old girl. It's something they are obligated to do, defend everyone who needs a lawyer, but these kinds of cases are not what they are proud of.

These TX liberal are waiting for a show of force, maybe not Nov. 8, 2016, but there is still 2018, where they can perform considering their domination of large urban areas.

Schieffer is a MAJOR MORON PIG...

Fact: By some estimates, over 70% of rape victims know their attackers. The rapist may be a relative, friend, co-worker, date or other acquaintance.

Fact: Research has found that the vast majority of rapes are planned. Rape is the responsibility of the rapist alone. Women, children and men of every age, physical type and demeanor are raped. Opportunity is the most important factor determining when a given rapist will rape.

IT IS BILL CLINTON’S FAULT!!! It is not the victim’s fault!!!

Obviously Schieffer needs to read up on the subject...What an idiot...He should be fired...Think I will call his network about him...Since NOW won’t!!

Wonder if Bob Schieffer’s granddaughters are old enough to “have a relationship” with Bill Clinton and Jeffrey Epstein?

We'll have to make a pilgrimage when Boob Schieffer tips over.

Bring burritos and beer. And toilet paper.
