You are not going to hurt the Clintons by continuing to publicize them. Clinton long ago learned to not only thrive but use adverse publicity to his advantage. In 1992 he left all of rivals in the Democratic primary behind when the Genifer Flowers allegations came out. In 1998 his approval ratings soared with the Monica allegations. On the day he was impeached his approval rating went to 70 plus. When someone discover the scandalous cost of his Manhatten offices he scored a major pr victory by moving to Harlem. For Clinton the only bad publicity is no publicity. American pretty much know about Clinton's wrong doings and have formed their conclusions. In a few years historians from both the right and the left will record the Clinton era until that time it is best to let him slip into obscurity.

This first sentence alone leads me to believe that you either didn't read my post or we are speaking two very different languages. I'm not interested in 'hurting' the Clintons. I'm interested in public opinion, and now that America has a new found respect for decency, I think we should strike while the iron is hot. As long as there are statements like this

"All of this was debated ad nauseum during the impeachment debate and he was found guilty of getting blow jobs beyond a reasonable doubt,"

floating around out there then obviously the public still needs to hear it. Because this statement is factually vacant "beyond a reasonable doubt." Clinton perjured himself while trying to prevent a woman from exercising her civil rights. He lied and obstructed justice to get himself off the hook. He made other people lie in order to deprive this woman of her rights. But vacuous statements like the one in bold above gloss over that and continue to excuse his actions. I understand your point, I just disagree with it.

I'd prefer to see him slip into jail, if you want the truth, along with his wife and cronies. He has a lot to answer for, and if he is allowed to get away with everything, some future politician will be able to point the finger and get away with a whole lot worse. Gary Condit is trying the same scams now, lie and spin.

Almost makes one wish he had a pitchfork, or at the very least, an ample supply of tar and feathers.
