CYA spin. He wasn’t a Bill Clinton enabler, he was a skilled propagandist.
Perhaps it's just me, but that phrasing seems to smack of: "Oh, that Bill! He's just a lovable rogue!"
No.
He's a serial rapist.
A violent serial rapist.
And you helped him. Klein says it was the beginning of a period of viciousness in politics? Perhaps that's because the Democrats were running a violent serial rapist for President, and the Republican party was against that idea?
Ah, another perfect proof of the axiom: “If leftists did not have double standards, they would have no standards at all.”
Not to worry, leftists, the guillotine has only one standards.
And we’ll hold YOU to them.
“Clinton was impeached for lying about his sexual relationship . . .”
No, Bill Clinton was impeached for lying under oath about a relevant topic. He was impeached for perjury, a serious felony.
No kidding Joe —we’ve been “in the know” since 1997-98 —at least since the time I joined FR.....
Creep.....
now its being called being "cad"....
Trump himself was caught on tape saying that he grabbed women by the genitals and kissed them without asking;
NO HE DID NOT!!!!!!
Subjunctive mood, people. Trump said he (anyone famous) COULD grab them by the genitals. He never said he DID it. He said famous people COULD do so!!!!!
Argh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
“You cad! You ripped through my panty hose and raped me while biting my face with your teeth to hold me down! You have cops protecting YOU outside the door. You finished, then raped me AGAIN! You left my lip bruised and swollen and you are the boss of all the state troopers. You silly cad! I ought to swat you playfully with my long white gloves!”
What saved Clinton was an approval rating in the 70s because of the Reagan economy he was riding on
And mighty proud of it he was.
I read Primary Colors when it came out in paperback. It’s amazing that Klein could defend Clinton back then after portraying him as a horny Arkansas boob in the novel. One would think the novel portrayal was how Klein really saw him. The ‘rats sure know how to circle the wagons.
The articles of impeachment against The Bent One specifically charged him with multiple acts of perjury, subornation of perjury, and obstruction of justice. There is no question that Bill Clinton committed high crimes and misdemeanors as POTUS. He was not convicted by the Senate because the enabling disgusting Rat senators held the manority of seats.
I was hoping a similar insider book would have been written about Barry’s campaign called, “Primarily Colored”.
The point of this article is for the left to move the goalposts once again. In the era of Clinton, "it was only sex!" - no big deal, and all the "right-wingers" were no-good prudes for trying to hold Bill to any normal standards of conduct. Remember, that's how "Moveon-dot-org" got its name - it was time to "move on" from Bill's problems, which, after all, were only "about sex" - not harassment, and not rape, you deplorable right-wingers!
Now the era of Clinton is over, since Hillary lost. Therefore any sexual misconduct is a Big Deal, and even allegations based on lies can end a career, especially if you're on the right. They need to try to keep alive the allegations that President Trump engaged in sexual misconduct, with the goal of destroying his presidency. So the cultural goalposts need to be moved, and lies need to be repeated in the media until they are accepted as the "new truth."
It reads like the writer did the Joe Klien piece for the sole purpose of teeing up a swipe at Trump.
Amazing how many libs are turning on the Clintons now that they’re out of power.
If the dirt splashes up on you, you deserve it!
No S___, Sherlock!
Looks like the Dems are letting the Clintons know that it’s time to go.
