'A social pariah'

[Outlaw Woman]

She was the White House intern who found fame for all the wrong reasons.

Now, 17 years later, Monica Lewinsky is still trying to play down her scandalous affair with then-President Bill Clinton.

She is single, her line of handbags failed to catch on and, according to the National Enquirer, is living the life of a near recluse.

Monica, 38, flits between homes in Los Angeles owned by her mother, her father and brother and an apartment in New York that is also owned by the Lewinsky family.

But her life is far from a social whirl of a-list parties and she is said to spend much of her time alone.

An insider told The Enquirer that Monica has given up her own place and moves between the two coasts trying to work out projects that may never get off the ground.

Her apparent goal...

'Monica still feels like she's the punchline to a dirty joke,' the source said.

She is the punchline to a plethora of dirty jokes.

[Outlaw Woman]

His impeachment was 98..apparently the affair was early on. Or does the DM have the dates wrong?

[dfwgator]

It’s a lesson for girls that once you get a reputation, it’s hard to get rid of.

[Outlaw Woman]

It’s appalling. The things that the lousy democrats have done to disgrace the White House and this nation is absolutely nauseating. Despicable pieces of trash that they are.

The bastard in there now is not going to leave peacefully...they wish to continue the tradition of pissing on America & Americans

[SuzyQue]

Nope. I disagree with you pretty much 100%. What I said is what I meant.

[the invisib1e hand]

I feel sorry for her, but her parents should have taught her better. It’s right that they support her; I suspect they failed her.

[ladyvet]

Why hasn't she been on “ Dancing with the Stars” yet?

[GOPJ]

Between Monica and Clinton, Monica was far and away the more decent human being...

What's with liberal men marrying ball busting women then preying young girls?

[RetiredTexasVet]

As you sow you shall reap. Got everything she deserved.

[Outlaw Woman]

I agree with you.

[Tzimisce]

I don’t feel sorry for her.

She made her decisions.

She did stupid things and got all kinds of opportunities and deals the rest of us will never have chances.

All because she did something stupid.

It’s called “consequences”.

[Outlaw Woman]

They know children are not old enough to make these types of decisions. They are trying to convince society that they are so they can exploit them and do, God knows what, with them.

Although in this case, Lewinski was an adult but she obviously was immature and no doubt believed the BS coming from the scumbag.

[freekitty]

And Mr. Rapist is still walking free.

[Outlaw Woman]

Maybe ‘feeling sorry for her’ is the wrong phrase. I have ‘compassion’ for her and the circumstances that she is in. She screwed up, but who among us hasn’t?? She was, no doubt, promised all kinds of BS in the heat of passion (excuse me while I throw up)while being manipulated.

[PghBaldy]

It wasn’t 17 years ago. As someone else said, it was 1998, IIRC.

[Outlaw Woman]

Exactly. It really is an upside down world isn’t it fk? I noticed it after the OJ trial...since then it’s become unrecognizeable ... the attitudes of the country are simply stunning.

[Verginius Rufus]

The affair began at the time of Clinton's government shutdown (which the media blamed on the Republicans)...it became public knowledge in January 1998 thanks to the Drudge Report.

During the time she was carrying on with Bill Clinton, she got pregnant by another boyfriend and had the baby aborted.

Hey Monica, want to get rich, get back in the news and make all the talk shows. Write an unvarnished book about you and Slick and (include Hillary) leave out no details. Will be a best seller overnight and an almost assured hefty movie deal.

You have compassion for her?

Why?

She did something stupid and got all kinds of opportunities for it.

Most of us do stupid things and get nothing.

Or we work our asses off, keep our noses clean and still get nothing.

Tired of watching life's screw-ups get all the breaks.

[freekitty]

I know. It just turns my stomach.
