It was eight years ago today when Katherine Prudhomme O'Brien confronted Al Gore in a townhall meeting in Derry, NH. I called her, told her about FR, and she soon became a FReeper.

FROM ALAMO-GIRL.COM

NewsMax.com 12/16/99 Carl Limbacher "…..Katherine Prudhomme says she was very nervous when she challenged the Vice President of the United States at a Derry, New Hampshire town meeting Tuesday night about his boss's alleged rape of Juanita Broaddrick.

But in the end, America's citizen-reporter of the hour found the courage to ask the question that still sends shivers through the establishment press……

Fast forward to Tuesday night, when Kathrine Prudhomme peppered the VP with follow-up questions as he stuttered and stammered his way though an embarassingly non-judgemental response. The self described "very ordinary woman" made Donaldson and his colleagues look like a bunch of frightened cub reporters by comparison.

Even after the town hall meeting had ended, Prudhomme sought Gore out. "I went up to him afterwards," the New Hampshirite told Hannity, "and I said, 'Please remember that rape is a hate crime when you're pushing for legislation.'" Gore's response? "He just smiled at me. I don't think he was very happy." …..

Prudhomme was particularly irked by Gore's claim that Clinton's "personal mistakes" were balanced "in the minds of most Americans" by his presidential achievements. "I'm really getting tired of him and a lot of people on the other side of this issue telling us what most Americans believe," the New Hampshirite told Hannity. "They keep trying to tell us what they want us to think."

Prudhomme added, "Al Gore's assuming that as long as everybody has their bread and circuses that they're not going to notice these things." …."

Yes, I saw it as soon as I clicked POST. It was 1999, and I asked the Admin Mod to change it.

Presidential achievements? Which ones? Allowing terrorism to fester? Selling pardons? Stealing FBI files? Oh yeah, these more than balance out rape.

If only Bill Clinton had littered during the rape, things would have turned out differently...

I’ll try:

Yes, Bill Clinton is a rapist, but he kept abortion legal.

Yes, Bill Clinton is a rapist, but he stopped the dreaded right wing.

Yes, Bill Clinton is a rapist, but he kept us out of a war with the Islamofascists.

Yes, Bill Clinton is a rapist, but he did good things for my 401(K).

Yes, Bill Clinton is a rapist, but he fought for rights for homosexuals.

Wish I could, but the truth is I made a mistake! I mis-remembered my history. Oops, I’ll try to do better next time!
