IF LOTT HADN'T CAVED, WHAT WOULD JUANITA HAVE SAID ON NATIONAL TELEVISION?

[doug from upland]

Imagine this scene on national television in the United States Senate:

Prosecutor: And so, Mrs. Broaddrick, you have read the transcript of Bill Clinton's testimony, have you not?

JB: Yes, I have.

Prosecutor: According to his testimony, Mr. Clinton said that he has never sexually harassed a woman. Do you see that part?

JB: Yes, I do.

Prosecutor: Do you have any information that would contradict Mr. Clinton's testimony.

JB (crying into a handkerchief): Yes, I do. Approximately 20 years ago, while I was working as a volunteer for Mr. Clinton's first campaign for governor of Arkansas, he appeared at a nursing home convention I attended in Little Rock. He offered to meet with me to give me come help with my business. (crying)

Prosecutor: Yes, go on.

JB: We were supposed to meet in the coffee shop, but he said it was too busy and noisy, and we wouldn't have the opportunity to talk. So, he called me and suggested that we meet in my room.

Prosecutor: And you agreed to meet in the room?

JB: Yes. And it is a decision I have regretted. I wondered about it but thought to myself -- Well, it must be okay to meet with him. He is the attorney general.

Prosecutor: Please describe what happened.

JB: After a few minutes he tried to kiss me. I pushed him away and said no. He would not take no for an answer. He threw me on the bed, (crying)…………. he ripped my clothes (crying)…………he viciously bit my lip to control me (crying)………….and he sexually assaulted me. He raped me. (crying)

Prosecutor: So, when Mr. Clinton testified under oath that he has never sexually harassed a woman, do you believe he lied?

JB: Yes, he lied. A brutal rape is certainly sexually harassment taken to the worst level. (crying)

Prosecutor: Mrs. Broaddrick, the defenders of Mr. Clinton have referenced an affidavit in which you told a different story. Will you explain that?

JB: I am so sorry I did that. An affidavit came to me that was sent from an attorney representing the White House. I signed the affidavit because I mistakenly believed the Jones case would just end and this horrible thing that happened to me would stay buried. I did not want to re-live it in public and re-live the pain. I just wanted it to go away. I mistakenly believed that I would never have to testify if I signed the affidavit. It was a horrible decision. (crying)

Prosecutor: Are you telling the truth now?

JB: Absolutely. My son, who is an attorney, warned me that I had made a mistake with the affidavit. He understood the pain and knew why I did it, but told me it was a mistake. I had to tell the truth before the Grand Jury. I have told the truth. It has been horrible. (crying)

Prosecutor: Mrs. Broaddrick, why didn't you do something about the rape at the time?

JB: What could I have done? It was 1979. It was the South. It was Arkansas, a one-party state. It was the Attorney General. Who was going to believe me? I thought someone was going to come into the room and do away with the body. (crying)

==========================

Juanita's testimony before the U.S. Senate on national television would have been powerful. It went directly to Clinton lying under oath about never sexually harassing a woman. Her testimony would have been followed by a crying Kathleen Willey. It could have been followed by testimony of women who had affairs with Clinton and then were given government jobs --- something also about which he committed perjury.

What would the press have done with this testimony? Is it just about sex? No, it was about rape. NOW would have been forced to comment.

Why didn't she get to testify? Trent Lott. That is why I have such a problem with our so-called Senate leader. He can't even lead his own mouth. But I don't want him gone under trumped up charges by the RATS. He said stupid things. He went along with the prevailing culture regarding integrating his fraternity 40 years ago. But I don't believe he has led his public life as a racist.

[MadMoo]

Bump!

[Arthur Wildfire! March]

Good point. I would be glad to oust Lott as majority leader, not to uphold hypocritical standards by 2 X by 2 X hypocrite, Jesse Jackson, but rather because of his failure during the impeachment hearing. He let Broadrich down. He let Kathleen Willey down. He let a lot of victims, whistle blowers, and witnesses down, along with their families. He failed them. He failed America. He failed his party. He never apologised to us for leaving us twisting in the wind either. We stuck our necks out, too. It was for the good of the country.

Lott is responsible for everything Clinton did after the impeachment trial. The pardon of bomb terrorists. The pardon of a major crack dealer. Lost funds. Lost military hardware. God knows all that Clinton did after Lott's failure.

[Faith]

Yes, if only Lott had had the courage when we really needed him to step up to the plate . . . but I agree with your conclusions.

[Terriergal]

ARRGH. That is maddening.

Excerpt from press release for Schippers' book, "Sellout":

AUGUST 16, 2000

In Bookstores One Week From Today …

DAVID SCHIPPERS’ SELLOUT SHOCKER EXPOSES HOW REPUBLICANS AND DEMOCRATS CONSPIRED TO DERAIL CLINTON’S IMPEACHMENT TRIAL

WASHINGTON, D.C.--- One week from today, August 21, the shocking story of how U.S. Senate leaders sold out their country and the rule of law in Bill Clinton’s impeachment trial will be in bookstores. The author: one of sterling credibility. Sellout (Regnery) by David P. Schippers exposes the shocking truth about Clinton’s impeachment trial: it was wired for acquittal from the very beginning. Schippers, a lifelong Chicago Democrat, was the Chief Investigative Counsel for the House Judiciary Committee during Clinton’s impeachment. He offers an exclusive, behind-the-scenes account of how the process for enforcing the rule of law at the highest levels of our government was completely derailed by some of the highest ranking officials in our government.

Democrats Lay Down Their Law … In one of the first meetings between the House Managers and Senate leaders when House Judiciary Chairman Henry Hyde expressed the desire to have Schippers present the House’s case on the Senate floor, Sen. Joe Biden (D-Del.) went ballistic. Then when Hyde asked to present witnesses Biden rebuffed him again. When Hyde pointed out the Senate’s rules provided for a trial - with evidence and witnesses - Biden told him flat out: “We make our own rules.”

Republican Leaders Punt … In the very first meeting Hyde and the House Managers had with Senate Majority Leader Trent Lott to discuss the trial’s procedure, Lott told Hyde right up front:

“Henry, you’re not going to dump this garbage on us.”

.....

[ChinaGotTheGoodsOnClinton]

As a LifeLong conservative, what I would like to say to Lott is:

See you later, and don't let the door hit you in the bu** on the way out!"

[nothingnew]

...He offered to meet with me to give me come help with my business....

Freudian slip DFU?...BWAHAHAHA!

[Paul Atreides]

Before any of this ever came up, I didn't like Lott because of his caving to the Clinton Party. However, I think the rank hypocrisy of the media and the Dims is just too much to stand. I think the Republicans need to replace Lott, but not for the reasons that are clogging the news.

[doug from upland]

Spell check is our friend. Freud would be proud of me.

[kittymyrib]

I think Lott knows a lot about the whole Clinton scandal that should stand him in good stead right about now. Notice how Clinton hasn't piled on during this feeding frenzy? There is a reason.

[JCG]

But I don't believe he has led his public life as a racist.

That's no longer a reason not to dump him. He's damaged goods and his presence as SML will set us back ten years.

Another proud moment from the Trent Lott biography.

[Guillermo]

Lott WILL play hardball, but only when he is up against other Republicans.

He says he will resign from the Senate if he isn't made Majority Leader.

[wastoute]

And think about this, this is how the Rats repay Lott for what he did for them. You would think he would learn, but for a smart guy he sure seems to be a few sandwiches short of a picnic.

WHAT TRENT MEANT TO SAY

 

 

As you well know, this is not the first time he flubbed this one... 

 

Schippers, who was hired by House Judiciary Chairman Henry Hyde (R-Ill.) as chief investigative counsel for the impeachment, labels the process one of "lies, cowardice, hypocrisy, cynicism, amorality, butt-covering."

Schippers Book May Rock Senate

...The House Managers were real heroes. Trent Lott stabbed them in the back. They were not allowed to argue their case or to present any witnesses. Regardless of the final vote, one hundred (100) senators agreed from the start to go along with the bogus rules dreamed up by Lott and Daschle. That ended any possibility of a fair trial based on the evidence. They all broke their oaths of office and their trial oaths by doing this.

Cicero

Historians will record that Republicans could not muster the necessary sixty-seven vote Senate majority to convict the President at trial.

 

Those same historians should note, if only in a footnote, that not a single senator made the trip to the Ford Building to review documentation of Clinton's "nauseating", "alarming" and "horrific" sexual misconduct; evidence that ultimately made the difference in the impeachment vote.

America's Impeachment Secret

Musings:

Senatorial Courtesy Perverted

 

by Mia T

 

   

 

Well, with the help of the 100 corrupt and cowardly cullions, clinton

walked. The senators' justification for their acquittal votes requires

the suspension of rational thought (and, in the curious case of Arlen

Specter, national jurisdiction).

 

I don't think it's over, though.

 

There are cloakroom whispers of incipient (spiked) charges and imminent

(spike heel) shoe-droppings.

 

And from Drudge:

Broaddrick is talking to WSJ's Dorothy Rabinowitz in Arkansas while 60

MINUTES is "circling" the clinton rape covered wagon.

 

Of course, a clenched-jawed clinton reeks revenge. I suppose the best

take is that, at the very least, his utter degeneracy has been exposed,

no one of any import will ever believe him again, and he is effectively

muzzled and hog-tied for the rest of his tenure.

 

All this while hillary indecorously impales herself on the horns of a

dilemma. (I am finding the farm animal metaphor for this pair especially

cathartic today.) hillary's megalomania pushes her toward a Senate run

in which her opposion will doubtless dredge up her criminality. What to

do?

 

Clinton's acquittal is reducible, I think, to the fact that the

irrational fear of the "right" whipped up by clinton spinners (watch

them spin), has trumped the very rational fear of the pseudo-leftist

psychopath.

 

A final thought (for now):

To spite us all, Arthur Schlesinger will live

to 120 just so he can write the definitive clinton hagiography.

 

 

 

Thou art arm'd that hath thy crook'd schemers straight.

Cudgel thy brains no more, the clinton plots are great.

Speaking of Freud...

 

 

 

 

"'Al has a way of looking at you like his eyes are kind of burning,' said Nashville Tennessean reporter John Warnecke.You would get that when you mentioned his dad'.

Asked in a 1987 interview about relations between father and son, Tipper Gore said:'You remember Oedipus? She quickly added that she was kidding, sort of. 'You had a very powerful father - a hero to many people - and a son coming to maturity and learning to find his own dignity.'"

[Slyfox]

"I want to say this about the impeachment mess: If Bill Clinton had been convicted of what the House managers were charging him with, and if the rest of the country had followed their lead, we wouldn't have all these problems that Republicans are now trying to clean up."

[CyberAnt]

It wouldn't have mattered.

It took 9-11 for the public's awareness to be tuned in to what the democrats had done to this nation. My gosh, it took a whole year after impeachment for the nation to realize that x42 should have been removed from office.

No matter what anyone had said about x42, the democrats would not have voted to expel him. When you see how fiercely they fought to win the last election - how they tried before election day to fix the elections in their favor, you can see how they are willing to win "At Any Cost".

They didn't care what x42 had done - they wanted to KEEP THEIR POWER ... that's all there is to it.
