Full title: Sebelius: The Clinton White House doubled down on 'abusive behavior' and it's fair to criticize Hillary Clinton

As a wave of stories unfold about sexual harassment and assault by men in power, a senior Democratic leader says her party should reflect on how it handled such charges when they were leveled against former President Bill Clinton.

"Not only did people look the other way, but they went after the women who came forward and accused him," says Kathleen Sebelius, the former secretary of Health and Human Services and Kansas governor. "And so it doubled down on not only bad behavior but abusive behavior. And then people attacked the victims."

Once again, Kathleen Sebelius is being used as a tool for deception and personal destruction. She was the main face of ObamaCare until it was passed in the dark of a December night.

This is a coordinated effort to remove Trump for accusations.

>> 'abusive behavior' 

Oh, But it's just a "gag".  Right?

A script for a USO performance that Al Franken worked on called for “Dr. Al Franken” to perform a “breast exam” on stage before cheering American soldiers, according to Franken’s own reading of the script and a video of one of the performances. The 2003 performance also included a moment where, Franken said, “I just grabbed her and kissed her, and she fights me off.”

Do the good-ol-boy pizza connoisseurs running the show in their fashionable SOX-wear see the Frankin and Franklin shows as laughable examples of just how far above the law they really are?

Meanwhile, in the Banana Republic:

45. Article 120—Rape and sexual assault generally

(g) Definitions. In this section:

(2) Sexual contact. The term ‘sexual contact’
means—
(A) touching, or causing another person to 
touch, either directly or through the clothing, the
genitalia, anus, groin, breast, inner thigh, or buttocks
of any person, with an intent to abuse, humiliate,
or degrade any person; or...

 

(8) Consent.

...

(B) A sleeping, unconscious, or incompetent person cannot consent. A person cannot consent to force causing or likely to cause death or grievous bodily harm or to being rendered unconscious. A person cannot consent while under threat or fear or under the circumstances described in subparagraph (C) or (D) of subsection (b)(1).

FAIL.

 

And in other Banana Republic news...

They were all complicit until the Clintons had done their two presidential terms, lost two presidential races, and apparently won’t be back.

Until now, they were all equal parts supportive and cowed.

Dems are making sure Clinton has no chance in 2020. They want them both gone. They are cleaning house. Yes, they’d love to also wound President Trump, but I believe the Clintons are the primary target. It started with that Clinton supporter Wienstein.

I think you are spot on!

This is more about Hillary than the Donald. All the stuff about Donald came out and he still won.

Why isn’t Sebelius in jail? She is a crooked as any of the Clinton gang.

It’s amazing how many Dems are coming out of the woodwork saying they “looked the other way” when Bubba Clinton was abusing women..now that the Clintons are out of the power curve.

Where were they back then?

I feel like the Left is burning down their own house just in an attempt to get Trump. It's madness, but I support their efforts.

We hope that these self-serving, sanctimonious statements by liberal enablers don’t distract voters from the fact that it was perfectly okay - and, in fact, even official party orthodoxy - to tacitly and explicitly approve of the sexual assaults by clinton for decades. They have do idea how déclassé is this bandwagon virtue signaling.

This is the Obama wing of the Democrat party trying to distance themselves from the Clinton crime syndicate wing. In the end, they're all birds of a feather.

The Democrats see what they believe is a political opportunity to get on the ‘right side’ of sexual abuse. What they have been concealing for decades, with limited success, now may benefit them to condemn, giving them what they perceive as the moral high ground. If they have to confess their past sins and throw a few has been pols under the bus, they see it as worth it. But when they think they’re fooling the public, they’re only fooling themselves. Shallow, transparent and cynical. In other words, business as usual.

That’s an awful lot of casualties for an unlikely ending.
Wouldn’t it be something if all the conspiracies people come up with are merely subsets of an overarching master conspiracy? That’d be awesome.
