That means CLINTON KNEW.
Oh, Hillary? Where are you? Your silence is deafening. Hillary? I can't hear you!
Coercion is near the top of the list. I'm only adding offenses that would stand in a court of law, uh, that is it dealt with a regular person and not Bill Clinton - master manipulator and hugely successful white collar criminal.
Idiots whose minds are bombarded by the leftest/bias reporting of the news media. It's interesting how rapidly their infestation is getting exposed on the internet and by emerging organizations like FOX.
No, many Democrats' problem, which threatens to disqualify their party from presidential responsibilities for a generation, is their incontinent love of snobbery and nostalgia -- condescension toward a president they consider ignorant, and a longing for the fun of antiwar days of yore.
It is surely correct that Clinton's character flaws, including his penchant for chasing interns and his inability to accept responsibility for anything, harmed our country a great deal. Attributing the damage we are now realizing exclusively to his character flaws, however, will prove to be extremely costly as we move forward. I am Bill Clinton's age, and I too was a campus lefty in the early seventies. I used to sit around with my similarly patriotism-impaired comrades and plan for the overthrow of the "military industrial complex". We dreamed of the day when we could somehow get "one of us" in the White House, and we knew that we could definitely change the course of history, should that occur.
We realized that this person would have to be special. This person would have to be the ultimate con-man, the quintessential chameleon, first in order to get elected, but then to pull off implementing our leftist agenda, which included crippling capitalism and neutering the military.
What Bill Clinton did to this country was not as much the result of character flaws as it was the product of a deliberate, life-long plan to maneuver and manipulate his way to the top, and then proceed to do everything in his considerable power to weaken this country from within.
The fact that it is finally being recognized by some in the media that Clinton's character did our country harm is a good thing, but falls way short of what is needed to explain the phenomenon that was Bill Clinton, and what we have yet to face in the spectre of his plan to return to power through Hillary's election to the office of the Presidency.
Unlike Bill Clinton, I left college and got a job in the private sector. I changed. He never worked a real job, and he never changed.
He destroyed the Black family unit with his great society and we are still in the aftermath of that destruction which has never been effectively repaired.
One man destroyed the black family unit? Who are you kidding? Yourself?
You mean the mothers of black families just gave up because LBJ 'founded' the great society? That black men decided to get black women pregnant, then ditch them, because LBJ was President?
He horribly botched Vietnam.
Are you aware of the state of the world when LBJ had the office of President dropped in his lap? That he and his wife were afflicted with mental depression over becoming President through Kennedy's death? That Lady Bird and Lyndon were horribly upset over the deaths of American soldiers in Vietnam? That it was the infighting between Republicans and Democrats, CIA and Army Intel,the Media and the public that led to the indecisiveness over Vietnam. That LBJ was being torn this way and that, while wanting to do the right thing, and being told he couldn't? That he didn't run for re-election because of the strain the Presidency caused on his body and soul? That he died in pain shouldering responsibility for the wrongs of Vietnam and the unneeded deaths of our soldiers?
LBJ was President during he Vietnam conflict, and took the responsibility for the botched job, but was he the sole reason for it's failure ?
SIDE QUESTION: How many POSTERS on FR know why we can drive on AMERICA's FREEWAYS and HIGHWAYS and get unobstructed, uncluttered views of the surrounding countryside??????????????????????????????????????
"I have coined a new term. The term is mine and no one elses. If and when it gets used later, Ill know I created it. The word is a descriptor for the lies that are full and complete lies (as opposed to little white lies) but can be parsed upon scrutiny so as to become legally in-actionable.
The word is Clingo--short for Clinton Lingo.
Clinton lies are the defining lies of the genre. If there ever is a dispute whether a lie fits into a lie category or the Clingo category, one must look to the source, Bill Clinton, and his legally accurate yet indisputable lies.
If it strikes at the heart of the matter, and the result of an answer to a question would be entirely different but for the lie, but can still be spun beyond recognition, than it is a Clingo. See also Clintalk.
A perfect Clingo example is the Clingo Bill told us in 92 to get the nomination. He knew he had to lie. And he told us a whopping Clingo which allowed him to pass go and collect the $200.
Was it about some terrible thing? No, it was just a sex thing about Gennifer Flowers. It was the first Clingo we were treated to--one of thousands to follow, we now know. The draft dodge, the no-inhalation, the no anti-American Rhodes protest, the campaign cover-ups, the various gates, all the rest of the women (probably at least four score and seven, and thats just in the Lincoln bedroom), and of course Monica.
But we as a country arent concerned! These were all Clingos, they effected the outcome of many crucial tests, and though they were just "little" lies, they were absolutely required in order for him to survive. They were Clingos.
Without the Clingo, hes not our president! Any one of them. Some white lies, huh? But Ill bet every Clingo can and will stand up in a court of law. Doesnt matter. None of them stand up in the court of public opinion. Not even with those #ss-suckers who are forced by their choice to defend the slimy eel.
Nearly anything that has escaped the lips of the (former) president is a potential Clingo. Anything he said can and will be spun against us in a court of law or the senate. He will wait until all the facts of whatever investigation happens to be coming out, then he and his bootlickers will spin those facts beyond recognition. That is what Clintonites do..."
How many remember good past acts? It is always easier to remember bad things, or complain about them. This act is one of the most visual to the entire country, and I think a very important one, and yet anyone under 40 probably wouldn't have a clue.
Imagine being President and having the Vietnam situation and Presidency dumped in your lap, while facing a public that had their nose jammed up Jane Fonda's arse.
I defend LBJ because I have taken the time to learn the truth, rather than have knee-jerk reactions supplied to me by the media.
So many believe that LBJ had Kennedy assasinated so he could be President. There is nothing further from the truth.
The ones that want the public to buy that are the ones that control many politicians and the media. It boils down to one person, actually. A person that may have had a President killed because the President was involved in the death of a major source of income for this person and his business. That person is still in control of the business, and maybe after he dies, the truth will come out. Maybe not.
