I would imaging that Robert Packwood would fit in there someplace as well. Oh, and Newt, and Bob Livingston, too.
It should be pretty obvious to everyone by now that NONE of the Democrats in the House or Senate can ever be presumed to be heterosexual.
bump for history. I haven’t seen such a clear recitation of the Clinton Crimes in years.
The hypocrisy of self-proclaimed “feminist organizations” regarding Clinton’s sexual predations is outrageous.
One pertaining to "Liberal Guilt".
My wife watched the entire sordid mess live on TV. When I'd watch the evening news with her and they "reported" on what had happened, she couldn't believe it. There was almost no correlation between what she had seen and what the reporters said. For one thing, they uniformly ignored that EVERY other woman who had worked with or for him testified indignantly that he had always behaved as a perfect gentleman.
Guys who are into this type of power trip do it over and over. It's a pattern of behavior. Thomas didn't do it.
At least he wasn't accused of child molestation. I guess that's the next big bomb that somebody will drop.

Packwood had to be taken out by the Clintonistas because he was Senate Finance Chairman (and because he would be replaced by a Dem if driven out, which he was). While his behavior was poor, what he did was nothing compared to anything an average rodent has done.
“NONE of the Democrats in the House or Senate can ever be presumed to be heterosexual”
True, but, they ALL can be presumed to be self-loathing.
Maybe not Barney Frank ~ Ann Lewis may be, but Barney seems to like it.
He didn't. He was impeached. Only the second President to be impeached. The other was Johnson, no not LBJ, but Andrew Johnson, who became President after Lincoln was killed. Both Slick and Johnson were impeached. Neither was convicted in the Senate nor removed from office.
But I think the 1868 Senate at least *looked at* the evidence, unlike Clinton's "jury". Johnson's "crimes" were mostly political, involving reconstruction policy and which branch of government should set it, and thus not really crimes at all, but policy disagreements. Clinton's crimes were personal and quite criminal indeed.
In a sane and rational society which sought to preserve itself for future generations, Justice Thomas would be held out as the consummate example to follow, especially for those from humble beginnings who must use self-reliance to advance one's lot in life. However, in our children's history books, paid for with our tax dollars, Justice Thomas must not be praised nor cited as a positive role model, for to do so would not be politically correct, i.e. it would not advance the liberal agenda. In our demented society it is considered politically correct to malign and smear such a man (and even openly wish for his early death), especially if he happens to be Black, because there is no greater threat to those who demean our county than a man like Clarence Thomas who has risen from the depths of poverty to embrace, credit and profess his admiration for the nation which made it possible to do so.
The defenders and supporters of Anita Hill were the first to slander the victims of Bill Clinton, showing once and for all that there is no grand allegiance to any moral principal whatsoever from these people. The only motive in play is the attainment and expansion of power, and every person standing in the way must be destroyed. Have they gone too far? Has the absurdity of their actions become so obvious that it is now evident to every person with an IQ above a lollipop? Apparently not, because the last couple of months have shown us that even more brazen attacks are underway. It seems the Clinton-MoveOn-MSM machine feels itself to be in utter control and free to set whatever agenda within whatever parameters it chooses.
If this machine succeeds in putting Hillary in power, the next four years will be one helluva ride. I can envision that little blonde haired Alice frantically searching for her looking glass in order to climb back through into Wonderland, just to escape a place which has gone more insane than Louis Carroll could have ever imagined.
Being a liberal requires some very interesting mental contortions. Of course, when they attacked Judge Thomas, they had no idea that Bill and Monica were coming. Standing by Clinton in light of the accusations of Paula Jones, Juanita Broderick and Kathleen Willey looks pretty silly when they were ready to crucify Judge Thomas solely on the word of Anita Hill. Or maybe womens’ rights is just an empty vessel they attach their leftist agenda to, like environmentalism. To them, of course, this all makes perfect sense.
bttt
One disagreement on an otherwise interesting article. Time did not shroud them, they were deliberately shrouded by the MSM, the Clintons, and spun by Carville, Stephanopolis, et al.
Bump for later.
