...Hillary Rodham Clinton yesterday launched a vigorous counterattack on behalf of her husband's beleaguered presidency, declaring that the president is the victim of a "politically motivated" prosecutor allied with a "vast right-wing conspiracy."
Using a nationally televised interview as her forum, she assumed a familiar and crucial role as Bill Clinton's first defender. She said she knew him better than anyone in the world, still loved him, and fully believed his denial of allegations that he had entered into a sexual relationship with a White House intern and had urged the young woman to lie about it.
The first lady's determined performance on NBC's "Today" dramatically reshaped the debate over the sex scandal that erupted last week and now threatens President Clinton's political survival. Her words at once established a clear line of counterattack for Clinton's loyalists, whose defense strategy until yesterday had seemed confused if not half-hearted, boosted morale at the White House, and drew a swift rebuttal from her main target, independent counsel Kenneth W. Starr, who labeled the conspiracy claims "nonsense."
While Hillary Clinton had nothing new to add to the president's sketchy explanations of his relationship with the White House intern, Monica Lewinsky, she said that she had talked to her husband at great length about the subject and was satisfied with his answers.

counterattack my ass she attacked trump first calling him sexist. She will get beaten like a drum. The media has changed since slick was President.
Vast Right Wing Conspiracy again...
She has the hysteria and would engage in a partisan witchhunt should she ever return to the White Rainbow House.
“I do not clearly recall” and “I’m not completely certain”...
The I-don’t-remember routines that would have gotten any average joe locked up until they did.
Thank you.
I remember the time well but it’s hard to find documentation.
Kaboom!
the infowarrior
And Trump is sharpening his knives.
This is gonna be fun.
Need more popcorn.
Don’t forget that there are many enablers for her not only in the liberal and democrat ranks (but I repeat Myself), but also with the elite power brokers in the political realm who for whatever reasons (likely those 900-odd FBI files) have overlooked her Ming The Merciless personality and allowed her to access the political power she has attained to date.
She was not even qualified to be a Senator, let alone SecState, but she was placed in those positions nonetheless.
Hubby BJ might have been the one responsible for teaching impressionable young minds that “oral sex is not sex”, but she was the one desperately hanging on his coattails and attacking anyone who dared question him despite his lecherous ways.
Let’s give Her Thighness credit for being duped by Bill.
We’re getting near the end of 8 years of a guy who is either naïve, stupid or a traitor. Do we want to replace him with someone who got duped by a serial philander?
LOL.
Hillary Clinton is the poster child for participation awards!
If you coined that, you’re a genius! That needs to go viral and be shouted at every Clinton event!!
“That childhood lesson [of slapping another child who had been mean to her] stayed with Hillary when she became a political wife. She fought against her enemies with everything she had. Morris said Hillary was the Clinton who was ready to use attack ads to try to salvage Bill’s disastrous 1980 re-election bid. Morris said that when Bill refused to use the negative ads and lost the race, “the Hillary Doctrine emerged: Answer attacks. Always, always, always, always answer. No matter how low the blow—or, for that matter, how truthful the criticism—always answer.”

“The media has changed since slick was President.”
If anything, the media has gotten more pro-Dem since Slick was President. Fortunately, however, the public views the media differently, and no longer buys what they are selling. Well, except the L.I.V.s
Yep sure, the ‘vast right wing conspiracy’ forcede old billie boy to compromise national security by turning his intern into a humidor (joke courtesy of some fella on TV awhile back- can’t remember who now- sorry)
He and she are never at fault- always someone else’s- they NEVER take responsibility for ANYTHING
