In fairness to Clinton (I can't believe I wrote that!), it was not criminal sexual conduct per sae. Clinton was being sued by Paula Jones for sexual harassment.

The Nags of NOW had been pushing for a sexual harassment law that favored discovery for the man's conduct in order to prove a disposition to sexually harass in the first place.

This type of discovery was often used in the old days by a rapist's defense in order to prove the woman was "asking for it". So they'd bring up witness after witness showing how the woman raped was just a slut... Anyway, wrong then and wrong now.

But once in power, Clinton signed such a law. In fact, he had all the top Nags of NOW at the signing in the Rose Garden and he waved his finger and scolded would be sexual harassers that now they're up the creek if they don't stop.

I'm sure all the Nags of NOW and ole Billy Jeff were thinking along the lines of mean ole Tongue Thrustin' Bob Packwood or Pubic Hair on the Coke Can Clarance Thomas. Or any of the Naval Aviators at Tailhook. Such were the times.

In other words, ugly old Republicans. Certainly not someone cool and attuned to a woman's right to murder her unborn chil'ren like ole Billy "The Sexy Sax" Clinton.

So, the irony of Bill Clinton being the most famouse case of this newfound law of sexual harassment suit discovery was lost on the DBM, but nevertheless, he was a victim.

And then he tried to get women to shut up, leave town, ordered aids to find them jobs, etc, finally lying to the judge in the Paula Jones case saying he didn't have the sexual relations with Monica thing.

The rest is history.

I think God, or Fate if you will, is pretty clever about things, eh?

Mark Twain said that history doesn't repeat itself, but it rhymes.

How appropriate.
