Sen. Clinton Allegedly Intimidated Husband's Sexual Accusers

(CNSNews.com) - A new book detailing the alleged sexual improprieties of former president Bill Clinton also charges that current U.S. Sen. Hillary Clinton played a major role in threatening and intimidating her husband's accusers.
Candice E. Jackson, author of "Their Lives: The Women Targeted by the Clinton Machine," told Cybercast News Service that in addition to the "sexual abuse" she alleges was committed by Bill Clinton, "Hillary's involvement is just as devastating and just as important in all this."
"[Hillary Clinton] was right there in the inner circle taking a lead in giving these women zero credibility, in attacking them in the public and through the press and in participating in all of these scare tactics, like hiring private investigators to threaten them and follow them," Jackson explained.
Hillary Clinton is "either as misogynistic as her husband or she is simply willing to conspire to mistreat women if that's what it takes to preserve their political careers," Jackson added.
She said the former president's behavior toward numerous women "demonstrated sexual harassment and sexual abuse and ultimately misogyny on his part.
Jackson said Bill Clinton was guilty of "a true lack of respect of for women that allowed him to use and abuse them and throw them away when he was done and do whatever it took to keep them quiet if they tried to speak up about it."
Jackson is an attorney and formerly worked for the legal watchdog group Judicial Watch, which has filed numerous lawsuits over the last decade targeting both Bill and Hillary Clinton for their alleged roles in various controversies.
Jackson's book details how Juanita Broaddrick and Kathleen Willey, both accusers of Bill Clinton, dealt with the White House spin machine as it allegedly attempted to discredit, bribe, audit, threaten and intimidate them.
"The gravity, the seriousness of the mistreatment that they suffered, really just didn't come through in the mainstream press at the time," Jackson said. Clinton's 1992 presidential campaign and subsequent two terms in office were surrounded by a host of different women alleging sexual improprieties.
Broaddrick alleged that then-Arkansas attorney general Bill Clinton raped her in a hotel in Little Rock, Ark., in 1978.
"People need to remember this side of Clinton before writing him up as a hero for women." said Broaddrick in a press release regarding the book "Their Lives," which goes on sale Tuesday.
Willey alleged she was sexually assaulted by Bill Clinton in the White House in 1993 during his first term.
"I appreciate [Jackson's] painstaking attempt to express the true nightmare Bill and Hillary put me through." Willey said of the book in a statement.
Jackson admits that one of her goals it to prevent Sen. Hillary Clinton from being elected president in 2008. Mrs. Clinton to expected to run for re-election to the Senate representing New York State in 2006 and then perhaps launch a Democratic bid to win the White House that her husband occupied between 1993 and 2001.
"We have let the Clintons go to the White House once and I think this is a serious enough abuse issue to prevent them from going there again," Jackson said.
Jackson, who describes herself as a "libertarian feminist," hopes her book will open the eyes of feminists in the U.S. to the "importance of not allowing the Clintons to escape with a reputation for being pro-woman when they have truly destroyed women along the way.
"The Clintons have really gotten away with a political reputation of being defenders of women's rights and women's issues," Jackson said. "To me that really says a lot about the state of feminism in this country. It seems like it doesn't even matter whether women are brutally mistreated as long as politicians support abortion rights," she added.
Calls to the New York City press office of former president Bill Clinton and the Washington office of Sen. Hillary Clinton were not returned.

Author is correct - Clintons really couldn't care a wit about women....or anyone but themselves, for that matter. But seriously, this is news to anyone? And who among us really thinks this will change the mind of Leftists? Yes, BillHill are scum, but they are their scum. And let's face it, the Left is scum. They are what they support.

As long as their policy positions are right, their behavior towards individual women is overlooked and denied by the radical feminists. And this kind of double standard is repeated over and over by those on the left.

Mr. Clinton abuses them sexually, then Ms. Clinton attacks them personally. What a team.

The sad thing about these books is that most of us conservatives have such Clinton-skates-again fatigue. I'm so sick of these two, I can barely muster a sigh. However, it's going to take so much more energy than I have to defeat her in '08.

Jackson said Bill Clinton was guilty of "a true lack of respect of for women that allowed him to use and abuse them and throw them away when he was done and do whatever it took to keep them quiet if they tried to speak up about it."And the entire time not a peep out of the organization that was suppose to stand up for abuses of this nature. NOW National Organization for Women.
Evidentally they are nothing more that a liberal lobbyist group.

Hillery has already been selected as our next president, keeping the string intact.
However, it is critical Hitlery somehow win over this new Pope, as Mrs. Clinton MUST take advantage of the Catholic fad the media is promoting upon the sheeple...

So true, to all your replies. And you can be that with Hillary's pending run for the White House, she has been gearing up the destruction machine to neutralize (or disappear)all of the women Clinton has reportedly been seeing since leaving office. But, will anybody care, besides us? Apparently, very few cared the first time around, despite the diligent work by the American Spectator and other independent-minded journalists. This is my first post on FR, and I'm proud to be among you!

*Allegedly* is a lie and most every so-called reporter in D.C. knows it. Too bad they don't have the guts to tell the truth about it even today.

U.S. Sen. Hillary Clinton played a major role in threatening and intimidating her husband's accusers. Funny, she always came across to me as a bashful, petite flower...

Like the old saying says, you lie down with dogs, you're gonna get fleas. These so-called "women's groups" have sold their souls to defend Clinton because he steadfastly stood up for their reputed "right" to have abortions. Well, as far as I'm concerned, they're stuck with him. Anyone with the eyes to see knew what Bill Clinton was about. I have no sympathy for those who now claim to have second thoughts.

There's no question about it. NOW is just the women's leage of the Donk Party.
