“It reminds me of they purposefully made the Clinton impeachment all about sex, instead of about lying under oath.”
You’re almost there; they made it about sex instead of a sexual harassment lawsuit (which included pulling out his penis) brought against BJ Clinton which was settled for $850,000, AND the five-year suspension of his law license for perjury. Monica Lewinsky was unwillingly dragged into the Paula Jones lawsuit; the media made her the story, instead of having people focus on the sexual assault (not “battery”, but certainly “assault” in my mind - and it would be treated as such legally if any of us did it to a woman on the street).
Paula Jones was ripped apart by the media at the time because she was the driving force in destroying the media-created image of St. William Jefferson Clinton; in fact it was all his doing. She was not a girlfriend or mistress, just some unfortunate person who had an involuntary encounter with him; I’m glad she hung on through the slings & arrows, because the leftist (exclusively female) losers that I work with always shut their stupid faces and drop their eyes to the floor when you mention the $850K settlement in his indefensiable sexual harassment suit.
No, they hang their heads out of resigned greed ~ they’d liked to have been part of the deal.
