Linda Tripp's website

[Joe Hadenuf]

You don't actually read that rag, do you Jim?

[BIGZ]

At least Linda did not call Paul Fray a F--king Jew bastard.

[snopercod]

TIME honored the wrong whistleblowers..imho.

Happy New Year, y'all!

Of course, the rationale for this condemnation of Linda was that President Clinton's infractions were merely sexual, and that a man is almost expected to lie in order to protect the reputation of the woman. Does anyone believe that the President lied in order to protect Monica's reputation? Or did he lie to protect his own reputation? I think the latter deserves more credence.

People always seem to forget that the Great Capo, bill clinton, had a habit of first using his women, then ruining them, and that means ruining them as insane stalkers or whatever it takes. Also, as I recall, Linda Tripp was told not so subtly that such things as the death of cats can happen to women, too, and women's kids. I would like to know what Linda could do for protection for herself and her family except get out on the table what she knew so as to eliminate the need for her to be eliminated.

Great cover!! Happy New Year!!

This should be sent as a letter to the editors of Time- although I doubt it would be printed.

[Sungirl]

What I never understood is how people could blame this woman for gathering evidence..... she literally feared for her life! Someone leaves a list of dead people on her chair...and through Monica (via Klinton)-- basically told her to lie under oath or be on the list (Clinton Casualty list)! How can they blame her?

Good post.

Nice post Jim. You should stop by more often. < G >

Not only that, he probably passed his herpes on to them. Ewww, what's that thing on his lip?

[gitmo]

God bless you, Jim.

[stevem]

As I recall, several (all) women in clinton's life experienced this reason for fear...Tripp and Kathleen Willey...

[lainie]

John Goodman showing his inner beauty. What a pig.

Well said Jim. Linda Tripp was villafide in Time Magazine time and time again, by the way they presented her. Never was she defended. Time, I predict will soon slip into the obscure history of one time important news publications. Its well on its way to that end, now.

[Chairman Fred]

For anyone with any sense of decency and honor, so much of the past ten years have been sheer Hell. You have persevered.

Not all of us could have done that.

Happy New Year 2003. In 1993, The Things From Arkansas went the Washington, D.C. Things are better there, now.

Mr Goldberg said it great. I hope Linda has a great New Year!

[Lancey Howard]

You should stop by more often.

I like to run my cursor over Jim's name to see the numeral '1' show up at the bottom of the screen.

That TIME cover, (I think Registered produced it) with the three Clinton whistleblowers is fantastic. Juanita Broderick was a gutsy whistleblower as well.

Of course, the scumbag mice at TIME wouldn't do anything that would offend their masters at the DNC or their snotty Manhatten cocktail party acquaintences.
