Arkansas businesswoman Juanita Broaddrick had some advice Tuesday morning for newly minted anti-rape crusader Sen. Hillary Clinton: Before you worry about America's sexual assault victims, first clean your own house.
"It's just very bizarre," Broaddrick said, reacting to Sen. Clinton's new anti-rape legislative initiative, in an exclusive interview with NewsMax.com.
"You just wonder if she shouldn't start at home with this crusade," she added - a reference to her own ordeal at the hands of ex-president Bill Clinton, who Broaddrick says brutally raped her 24 years ago this week.
"If Hillary can accept what Bill did to me, then she shouldn't even be involved in anything like that," the Clinton rape accuser complained.
On Friday Sen. Clinton told the New York Times that she was sponsoring legislation to speed up the processing of DNA evidence against men accused of rape before they can rape again.
"We've had a steep increase in the number of reported rapes here in New York City," the New York Senator complained. "It is now apparent that unless we process this information and start putting it to use, we are likely to see people who are serial rapists continue their crimes when we could have apprehended them before they could strike again."
In her remarks to the Times, the former first lady made no mention of Broaddrick's allegation against her husband. Neither did Mrs. Clinton reference former White House volunteer Kathleen Willey's accusation that Mr. Clinton had sexually assaulted her in a 1993 White House attack.
Still, even without mentioning Mrs. Clinton's hypocrisy on the issue, the Times apparently felt her rape comments were too bizarre for hard news coverage, and buried them instead in a Monday Bob Herbert column headlined, "Weapon Against Rape." (See: Hillary in New Anti-Rape Crusade)
NewsMax's coverage of Mrs. Clinton's remarks, which included observations like, "Every two minutes somewhere in America, someone is sexually assaulted," made her the target of ridicule from the crew of radioman Don Imus Tuesday morning.
"Here she is going on about every two minutes somewhere in America someone is sexually assaulted," complained Imus gossip maven Christie Musamechi. "I wonder how many of those women are in Chappaqua" where Mr. Clinton lives.
Since your hubby left the Oval Office, he's been a busy man.
Except! If that smelly, old, bad breathed, mushy brained Ara-O-Fatty gets really, really, really aroused. Come to think of it, that too is a real strech, even for him, when she is the target.
Last I checked. Bill was still on the loose. That woman is nuttier than a fruitcake.
Cordially,
"We've had a steep increase in the number of reported rapes here in New York City," the New York Senator complained. "It is now apparent that unless we process this information and start putting it to use, we are likely to see people who are serial rapists continue their crimes when we could have apprehended them before they could strike again."
Hope Broderick saved the dress.
