"Clinton Fights to Keep Impeachment Taboo" headlined the Washington Post, with the following subheadline: "After Spat, Campaigns Know to Expect Swift Reprisal for any Hint of the Scandal."
And the Post reported: "Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton has a new commandment for the 2008 presidential field: Thou shalt not mention anything related to the impeachment of her husband."
Can you believe this?
The American people are now expected through all members of the media – and all election crowd questioners – to observe censorship. There are to be no questions regarding impeachment, trial and conviction for perjury and obstruction of justice of the presidential candidate's husband – who, if she could ever get elected, would have Slick Willie, one of American history's most spectacular and unforgettable adulterous sexual organists, as the first First Gentleman!
Hillary campaign senior adviser Howard Wolfson has announced that any public references to Bill Clinton's myriad misbehaviors are "under the belt" – (meaning below the belt, as unfair), rather than that area of attention by a White House intern, Monica Lewinsky, under the Oval Office desk.

What a effing idiot. She just painted a huge bullseye on her campaign. What Democrat has the nads to go for it?
Probably not Senator Edwards, his beard, er...wife wouldn't think it's polite.
As if there weren't a billion other scandals with which to attack her with.
Slightly off topic, but I heard Rush play portions of her speech at a church in Selma, and her voice is so grating, even when she's not trying for a fake Southern accent. And even when she's trying to be conciliatory. She always sounds angry and patronizing at the same time.
Can we mention treason and rape?
Now I've read the article, and it makes a good point: She drags ol' BJ along with her to score points with whatever group she's pandering to at the moment (she took him with her to Selma since he's the "first black president"), so she can't expect the other candidates to keep him and his exploits off limits.
So true, but why point one out?

I'm starting to seriously question whether or not she'll get the Dem nomination. She's a screeching harpy and impossible to like - even to a lot of people on the left.
It could be bait. Like, she has an already planned out response, and she's hoping somebody will bring it up so she can gain more favor with the soccer moms.
So, Mrs. Bill Clinton, should you be elected president, are you going to feel emotionally disturbed, distracted and dysfunctional, over having to live in the same house and walk through the same rooms, wherein your husband violated his marriage vows by receiving oral SEX while sticking cigars up his girlfriends.......?
During times of crisis and extreme national security risks, might you be paused to wonder what Billy is really up to?
Mrs. Bill Clinton, it is perfectly natural for you to harbor ill will over such a personal tragedy. So much so, that you would in fact be mentally unfit to hold the office of president..... if it didn't trouble you.
These days I can believe anything.
Ohhhhh Hillaryyyy, everything is fair when it comes to politics. You should know, considering you stole all those FBI files, you rotten stinker....
Your husband(cue up "Stand By Your Man")was impeached, cannot keep his libido zipped up, did business with countries he shouldn't have, soiled the Oval Office with his shenanigans, and publicly shamed his daughter. If he was married to a normal woman, she too would have been shamed in front of the entire world. Bite me Hill...
Hillary was co-president with Bill
We are the President.
How convenient.
Could that have been another 'forgotten in the moment' "Wag the Dog" act?
IIRC didn't Bill consider his impeachment proceedings one of his successes on the shaky ground of preserving the powers of the presidency. Hillary should not be allowed to pick and choose which aspects of the Clinton presidency she is going to take credit for while ignoring those which do not suit her purposes. Once she opens the door on the Clinton administration all aspects of it are valid to open discussion.
Thats right so she already served two terms and can no longer run. Case closed. Now we move to the other Rat candidate Mr. B. Hussein Osama, Bi-racial, Bi-Cultural, Bi-religious, Bi-ethinic, Bi... Curious how the media lists him as all things to all people.. well I'm not Buyin it.
