SUSAN ESTRICH MOCKED ON EBAY FOR REFUSING TO SPEAK WITH BILL CLINTON RAPE VICTIM JUANITA BROADDRICK

ATTN ADMIN MODERATOR - no link here to the ad, just the content of the description. I hope that is okay.

NOTE: You are bidding on a print out from my computer of three emails and an unforgettable picture (see below) of Clinton defender and professor of law Susan Estrich arranged in a frame and signed by Doug from Upland (my screen name on FreeRepublic.com and caller name on talk radio).

Juanita Broaddrick, known as Jane Doe No. 5 during the Clinton Impeachment, appeared on an historic NBC interview with Lisa Myers, broadcast on Feb. 24, 1999. Yes, NBC delayed the broadcast until after the Impeachment vote in the Senate. In the interview, Broaddrick discussed her accusation of rape against the then attorney general of Arkansas, Bill Clinton. Overwhelmingly, those who saw the interview believed her charges.

Democratic political operative Estrich, as you may recall, was responsible for the hilarious photo-op of Michael Dukakis in the tank looking like a silly little boy playing grownup. Political pundits are still debating which is the silliest photo-op ever. Is it Dukakis in the tank or John F. Kerry crawling out of the space capsule looking like a little blue bunny or, as some have suggested, a blue sperm character from a Woody Allen movie?

1. Email challenge to Estrich to speak with fellow rape victim and Bill Clinton accuser Juanita Broaddrick.

2. Email of the good news to Estrich that Broaddrick contacted me and was looking forward to a meeting with Estrich.

Note: from the emails, I reserve the right to redact my personal phone number and cell phone number.

BACKGROUND: There is a chance that this offering could become historic memorabilia. On Oct. 11, 2005, Estrich was plugging her new Hillary book on the Sean Hannity show. Hannity confronted her about Broaddrick's very credible rape accusation. Estrich, herself a rape victim, didn't believe Broaddrick. In her eyes, Broaddrick is apparently a liar. How does Estrich know? Well, she had a conversation with Clinton, and he told her he didn't do it.

Let's see if we have this correct. Clinton lied to his wife, lied to his daughter, lied to reporters, lied to his supporters, lied to the grand jury, lied to his secretary, lied to his cabinet, lied to his dog Buddy, and lied to all of us while pointing his finger at us and telling us he was going to get back to work for the American people. Gee, Bill, what kind of work would that be? Defending this nation? Despite all of the lies, by some cosmic miracle that is beyond the comprehension of man, he would never, never, never lie to Susan Estrich. Is that reasonably accurrate?

I attempted to set up a conversation between Estrich and Broaddrick because of the comments made by Estrich on the Hannity show. Certainly, the fair minded law professor Estrich would want to hear Broaddrick's side of the story, wouldn't she? After each of two phone conversations with Estrich's secretary, I followed up with an email. Broaddrick was willing. Unfortunately, Estrich would have nothing to do with it.

You can make your own determination regarding why Estrich refuses to speak with Broaddrick. Could it be that Estrich will be forced to confront the truth? If she confronts the truth, what would she do about her support of Bill and Hillary? We all know that, behind the scenes, it was Hillary working feverishly to destroy the women who dared come forward to tell their stories. That threatened her political power. You might have never seen it on Brokaw, Jennings, and Rather, but many of those who came forward to tell their stories were audited by the IRS.

Estrich is a lawyer and a law professor who trains prospective lawyers. She knows the importance of hearing all sides and seeing all the evidence. But in this case, political power and agenda seem more important than the truth. It is ironic. A rape victim refuses to speak with a fellow rape victim. Instead, she takes the side of the accused rapist in public forums.

PS - Early in 2006, look for the documentary film, INDICTING HILLARY. www.HillCAP.org How much do you know about the largest campaign finance fraud on record?

Clinton's Silence on Rape Claim Suggests Guilt
By DEROY MURDOCK
Why isn't President Clinton behaving like an innocent man?

Juanita Broaddrick of Arkansas accused him of raping her in 1978. In a February 24 interview on NBC's Dateline, Broaddrick said she permitted then-Arkansas Attorney General Clinton to have a professional discussion with her in her Little Rock hotel room during a business convention. They had met while she volunteered on his first gubernatorial campaign. After some light banter, she said, Clinton pounced on her, bit her upper lip until it bled and violently penetrated her after tearing through her panty hose. Before he left, Broaddrick said, Clinton donned his sunglasses and remarked about her bloody lip: "You better put some ice on that."

Broaddrick contemporaneously told four others about this alleged incident including her friend Norma Rogers, a nurse who recalls putting ice on Broaddrick's lip after finding her in shock.

NBC News wrote the White House in early February asking if Broaddrick, a prosperous nursing-home owner, was believable. NBC inquired about Clinton's whereabouts on April 25, 1978 - the day of the alleged rape - and whether he ever knew Broaddrick, saw her in a hotel room or had any sexual contact with her.

We got back the two sentence denial from David Kendall, and that's it, NBC correspondent Lisa Myers explained on Meet the Press February 28. Kendall, President Clinton's private attorney, had issued a cryptic statement nine days earlier. "Any allegation that the president assaulted Mrs. Broaddrick more than 20 years ago is absolutely false," Kendall's communique read. "Beyond that we are not going to comment."

But rather than an airtight refutation of Broaddrick's explosive charges, this statement resembles a bank vault with sliding glass doors. In 1978, Jimmy Carter was president, not Bill Clinton. At that time, Juanita Broaddrick was named Juanita Hickey. Kendall's concoction also may depend on what the meaning of the word "assault" is. Perhaps

Team Clinton has left itself an out should they need to claim that Broaddrick simply misconstrued an act of consensual, albeit very rough, sex."

Someone falsely accused of rape typically would demand to prove his innocence. Instead, President Clinton remains virtually mum and uses his legal wordsmiths as human shields.

Fielding a two-part question on this matter, President Clinton said on February 24: "My counsel has made a statement about the first issue, and I have nothing to add to it."

Three factors explain Bill Clinton's latest stonewall strategy. First, Broaddrick's story is not bulletproof. She waited 21 years to speak up, as Clintonites note. Broaddrick, however, said she doubted anyone would have believed her in 1978, back when rape victims often were considered luckless harlots. Wishing to forget the painful experience, Broaddrick said, she filed an affidavit in the Paula Jones case denying the alleged incident. She later recanted this affirmation after receiving immunity from Special Prosecutor Kenneth Starr. Broaddrick finally decided to come forward. "I didn't want [my] granddaughters and nieces to turn to me and say, 'Why didn't you tell what this man did to you?'"

Second, Clinton expects his allies to roll their eyes even at serious rape accusations and demand that he be left alone. They haven't let him down "It is too late in the day, 21 years later, to be deliberating a rape charge here," Susan Estrich - a Democratic activist, law professor and rape victim - said on Meet the Press. "The country wants to move on."

"There is a legal system out there. It can handle future charges," said House Minority Leader Dick Gephardt (D - Missouri). "But we need in the Congress to get back to the people's business."

And, as if possessed by Salvador Dali, Vice-President Al Gore on February 26 unveiled $223 million in federal grants to "stop violence against women, once and for all."

Finally, President Clinton understands that Arkansas' six-year statute of limitations on rape has expired. The star-crossed Senate impeachment trial is over. No forum exists to adjudicate these charges.

Legally, this is true. However, unless the U.S. has become a monarchy, President Clinton owes the American people more than a wave of his scepter. Citizens, journalists, feminists, honest Democrats and sentient Republicans should insist that Bill Clinton explain himself. As Patricia Ireland, President of the National Organization for Women, declared: "I think that his legal team ought to bring forward some of the documentation on Clinton's whereabouts in April 1978. I don't think we can just say, 'Oh, well. It's too late.'"

Clinton also could clear the air by holding a live, prime-time news conference to answer reporters' questions until they leave satisfied. Should he ignore these grave charges rather than rebut them, Bill Clinton will have no one but himself to blame if people believe Juanita Broaddrick's straightforward claim: the President of the United States is a rapist.
