I thought a couple of weeks ago the publisher was complaining that she didn't even have a title yet?

Why would even DemonRats buy this book?

NOW probably has an order for 500,000. Just another way to make a contribution to Hillary!! She CAN use her own money for any future run and $8 mill will help and $12 mill from "Big Daddy" in blackmail money will help, too.

Clinton accused of 1978 hotel rape

By Martin Kettle in Washington

Saturday February 20, 1999

Just a week after his acquittal in the Senate impeachment trial, Bill Clinton faces a fresh scandal about his past sexual conduct after a former campaign worker alleged that he raped her 21 years ago.

Juanita Broaddrick, who now runs a nursing-home business in Arkansas, told the Wall Street Journal that Mr Clinton raped her in the Camelot Hotel in Little Rock in 1978, when he was the state attorney-general.

The newspaper reports that Mr Clinton persuaded Mrs Broaddrick to have coffee with him in her hotel room during a conference of nursing home administrators in 1978. She alleges that he then forced her on to the bed, where he held her down, bit her lips and raped her.

When it was over, Mrs Broaddrick claims, Mr Clinton told her that she should not worry because he was sterile due to a bout of childhood mumps.

Mrs Broaddrick is not directly quoted in the Journal's account of the alleged rape but in response to Mr Clinton's sterility claim she said: "As though that was the thing on my mind - I wasn't thinking about pregnancy or about anything. I felt paralysed and was starting to cry."

She added: "This is the part that always stays in my mind - the way he put on his sunglasses. Then he looked at me and said 'You better put some ice on that'. Then he left."

Norma Rogers, a friend of Mrs Broaddrick, told the Journal that she found the alleged victim in a state of shock. In reported speech, she is said to have alleged that Mrs Broaddrick's lips were discoloured and swollen to twice their normal size and the crotch of her tights was torn.

"She just stayed on the bed and kept repeating 'I can't believe what happened'," Mrs Rogers said.

Mrs Broaddrick's story has been the subject of rumours for years, and was widely circulated in 1992 when Mr Clinton was running for president.

Until now she has refused to speak about the incident, and denied the story in an affidavit to lawyers for Paula Jones, who brought a sexual harassment case against Mr Clinton in 1994.

Mrs Broaddrick's story surfaced in an American supermarket tabloid magazine in January, along with subsequently disproved claims that Mr Clinton had fathered the son of a black prostitute in Little Rock. On January 20 Mrs Broaddrick finally gave NBC television what is said to be her first media interview confirming the original rape allegation.

Though scheduled for airing on January 29, the NBC interview has not yet been broadcast. NBC has described it as a "work in progress" - leading to rumours that the White House had put pressure on the network to withhold the story.

The allegations come at a time when many of those involved in the past year's presidential crisis - including Monica Lewinsky, Linda Tripp and Gennifer Flowers - are telling their stories in books and media interviews.

Mrs Broaddrick has also claimed that in 1991 she was called out of a meeting to discover Mr Clinton waiting for her.

She said that he told her he wished to apologise and asked what he could do to make things up to her. Mrs Broaddrick said he could do nothing, and walked away.

Shortly afterwards, Mr Clinton announced his presidential bid.

I read that, awhile ago. Thanks for posting it here on this thread; it fits.

Bill O'Reilly was asked about Hitlery by Jim Russert on a program I saw yesterday. Bill O' said he thinks Hitlery's ruthless, dishonest, and someother unkind remarks. Russert didn't dare say a word. O'Reilly said that he (O'Reilly) knows that Russert believes this about Hitlery, as well as many other people, but everyone's afraid of Hitlery (or something to that effect).

Wish we could get the transcript of what Mr. O' said to Russert here....it isn't too long about the Hitlery comments.....and they're all true.

"Only a small handful of books have a 1-million-copy first printing, and I cannot think of another nonfiction book in recent history that has had that large a first printing," Robert Barnett, Clinton's lawyer, said Sunday.

If that "hippy bovine" admits to the truth the whole truth and nothing but the truth, in writing, it will likely be a lie since she has probably never intended to tell the truth in a her whole miserable existence.

Then she's being true to herself, therefore, she's telling the truth. This is how she and billy the pig are: white trash.

The Night Hillary Clinton Met Juanita Broaddrick

As the party was set to begin to celebrate the inaugural "Hillary issue" of TALK magazine, one person down in Arkansas was not in the mood.

Juanita Broaddrick.

"How can she just pretend that I do not exist?"

These are Broaddrick's first on-the-record words since news came out that Hillary Clinton has come clean on her husband's misdeeds.

In an exclusive interview with the DRUDGE REPORT, Juanita Broaddrick revealed the chilling details of her one encounter with Hillary Rodham Clinton-an encounter that occurred just weeks after Broaddrick claims Bill Clinton raped her!

The first lady tells Tina Brown's TALK magazine in a wide-ranging interview that her husband's weaknesses and infidelities are problems that come from abuse that he suffered during childhood.

"You know in Christian theology there are sins of weakness and sins of malice, and this was a sin of weakness," Mrs. Clinton says of the Monica Lewinsky affair in TALK.

But does the first lady regard the Juanita Broaddrick rape allegation as a "sin of weakness"?

The DRUDGE REPORT has learned that Editor Tina Brown did not want the Broaddrick question explored in the Hillary Clinton interview, hitting newsstands on Tuesday.

According to publishing sources, Brown was personally involved in the final edit of the interview.

"The feeling was," one insider told the DRUDGE REPORT, "that Broaddrick was not important or relevant to the current discussion."

And as America's media elite gathered to celebrate TALK magazine on Monday night, under the Statue of Liberty in New York City, Broaddrick painfully recalled: The night she met Hillary Clinton.

"It happened at a political rally, in Van Buren, Arkansas in the spring of 1978m at the home of local dentist," Broaddrick begins.

"She came directly to me as soon as she hit the door. I had been there only a few minutes, I only wanted to make an appearance and leave. She caught me and took my hand and said 'I am so happy to meet you. I want you to know that we appreciate everything you do for Bill.'"

Broaddrick was stunned by Hillary's comments.

Only weeks had passed, Broaddrick claims, since she had been raped in a Little Rock hotel room by then attorney general Bill Clinton.

"Here her husband had just done this to me, and she was coming up to thank me? It was scary..."

"I started to turn away and she held onto my hand and reiterated her phrase-looking less friendly and repeated her statement-'Everything you do for Bill'. I said nothing. She wasn't letting me get away until she made her point. She talked low, the smile faded on the second thank you. I just released her hand from mine and left the gathering."

"I was in a state of shock...nausea went all over me..."

"You know, I should not have gone to that political gathering, but I think I was in denial at the time. I actually became physically ill. I went outside and told my first husband I had to go home."

Broaddrick says that while Hillary was quick to approach her, Bill Clinton stayed on the other side of the crowded room.

"He never spoke or came near me," Broaddrick recalls.

Broaddrick, who had been a 'Clinton for governor' campaigner, says that one of her fiends had driven the Clintons to the rally from the airport that day-and the topic of conversation throughout the ride was Broaddrick!

"Hillary knew something-I just don't know what exactly. For years, I thought she knew what had happened to me, but now I just don't know."

This information is being reported in this space for the first time. But this is not the first time Broaddrick has revealed this information to the media.

Broaddrick says that during her controversial January interview with NBC NEWS, two producers refused to continue when the subject of the Hillary encounter was brought up.

"As soon as I told them what happened with Hillary, they stopped rolling the tape and said to not go down that road," Broaddrick says.

"They just said, 'NO, NO, NO.We can't say that.'"

(NBC was also able to corroborate that during that period, Bill Clinton held a separate apartment-away from Hillary, according to network sources. The Clintons living arrangements was not explored on-the-air by NBC.)

"I am not frightened of this woman-I am frightened of her power," Broaddrick now says of First Lady Hillary Rodham Clinton.

"And the spin by the media...the way they protect her."

XXXXX...AND NOW FURTHER...

TINA BROWN GIGGLES AT THE NAME OF ALLEGED RAPE VICTIM.

TALK magazine editor Tina Brown giggled when ABC's Diane Sawyer mentioned the name Juanita Broaddrick on Monday's GOOD MORNING AMERICA.

Brown was questioned why Broaddrick was not explored in the TALK interview with Hillary Clinton.

SAWYER: Tina, as you know, Matt Drudge on the Internet this morning is saying that in fact you were personally involved in making sure that any mention of Juanita Broaddrick, the woman who claims (Brown giggles) some 20 years ago that Bill Clinton raped her (Brown giggles), that it was not mentioned either in the questioning or in the piece.

BROWN: That is totally untrue. I don't know where Drudge got that from. (The reporter) was able to ask anything she wished...she talked to Mrs. Clinton and got Mrs. Clinton to discuss things that no one else has been able to get her to discuss. And I think she went a very long way in doing so. I think she was enormously brave for doing so. And I think her decision to do so was a terrifically, eh, you know, something to be greatly admired. She wanted to get this over with-and out. I think, as she is entering the Senate race, that she feels it is very important that people understand who she is. And this woman is not a victim. And she does not want to be seen as a victim.

Both of the above articles were published August 2, 1999 at 18:09:22 ET by Matt Drudge

After laying out a seven-figure advance for Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (news - web sites)'s memoirs, her publishers are counting on seven-figure sales.

As I pointed out on another thread, the only way to achieve that is to write the book in a style that would make Suetonius and Procopius look like Dr. Suess, including every fact, suspicion, and wild rumor. A few accounts of Hillary ordering a murder, engaging in a lesbian tryst, and throwing a lamp at Bill's head -- all at the same time -- would put the book over the top.

Only a small handful of books have a 1-million-copy first printing, and I cannot think of another nonfiction book in recent history that has had that large a first printing

Hillary's writings will be about as "nonfictional" as Whitley Streiber's.
