Monica Lewinsky on Ken Starr death: "Painful loss for those who love him"
Fox News ^ | 9/13/2022 | Bradford Betz

Monica Lewinsky began as a White House intern under President Bill Clinton in 1995

Former White House intern Monica Lewinsky said the death of Ken Starr, whose probe of Bill Clinton exposed her affair with the former president, evoked 'complicated feelings' but acknowledged that his loss was "painful" for those who love him.

"As I'm sure many can understand, my thoughts about Ken Starr bring up complicated feelings...but of more importance, is that I imagine it's a painful loss for those who love him," Lewinsky tweeted shortly after Starr's family confirmed his death Tuesday at the age of 76...

Monica Lewinsky in more recent times saying things like Bill Clinton "should want to apologize" for what happened with her and also saying "I made a mistake, I fell in love with my boss"

She has something to say again.

Honestly, she was very reasonable with that.

I’m impressed.

Monica has impressed me with her maturity about things like this talk in 2016.

“The Price of Shame”

“I regret that mistake deeply”

among other things.

I’m inclined to feel sorry for Monica. Yes,she was foolish...but she was a kid.Luckily for her,she saved the dress.If she hadn’t many...perhaps even most...Americans would see her even today as “that lying,delusional,whore looking to slander a President who cares so deeply about us”

That was a very classy statement. Sure, she did something sleazy and pretty awful when she was young, but it’s unfair to judge her negatively for that her entire life.

Ken star was deep state, perhaps unwillingly.

Ken Star knew full well that Vince foster did not “ kill himself in fort Marcy park.”

Why are here absolutely zero images of Vince leaving the most secure building on the planet?

(The SS hid the photos, because Vince was already dead.)

Ken knew, and played along. Threatened? Likely, imo.

I have met him many times. He was a very nice and intelligent family man. He will be missed.

It is tough when young people go to the White House, are so idealistic, then get a realistic close-up view of the Chief Executive which the rest of us do not see, and eventually have to come to terms with the scumbag, and turn states evidence or bring out stuff on him. That must be quite a lifetime education. She certainly was not the first nor last.

Yep, proper response. It was nice of her to reach out like that.

I appreciate her seeing her role in the situation with Bill Clinton years ago “I made a mistake” is what she said in 2016.

She has also said that Bill “should want to apologize” for his role in that matter in 2018.

Her gut instincts are still liberal but she is sane and mature enough to see a mistake in her actions.

Can’t remember the title of the documentary / interview series with her from a few years ago - but I respected that she blamed herself first for everything that happened.

She was a naive and stupid young girl, who was first used by Bill Clinton, and then fell into a political maelstrom.

From Day One I have laid 100% of the blame on Clinton. OF COURSE she was going to have a crush on him, OF COURSE she would try to flirt with him. BUT HE WAS THE EFFING POTUS. He actually had more important things to do than flirt with a pretty intern. HE was the adult and should have shut it down IMMEDIATELY, but obviously, his ego ruled all...

Monica was what, 18ish? She may have made mistakes and she certainly took a public beating. However, she has fought it all, persevered and yet she shows class.

She has become a lady despite what an evil, uncaring demonic jerk politician lead her into.

The elite take, ruin and never care about the lesser. Welcome to the frigging real world!

Check your 401K tomorrow. Consider moving it to a money market! Interest rates are going up!

I agree...except for one thing. Your screen name suggests that you're a woman...and if you are I,a guy,can assure you that it wasn't his "ego" that ruled. It's been often said that BillyBob was a frequent flier on Lolita Airlines and that he often flew without his Secret Service guys. Does that tell you anything about what "rules" him?

Just sayin'...
