Lewinsky "adulterer" blames Clinton for "ruining" her "life"

[PROGRESSIVE1]

http://news.yahoo.com/fc?tmpl=fc&cid=34&in=us&cat=bill_clinton

Who here recalls that Ms. Lewinsky chased one of her High School Teachers all the way to Washington State and destroyed their marriage!

:argh:

It takes two to tango!!!

[BlueEyedSon]

1. Who "saved" the blue dress?

She is responsible for ruining our country.

Would Gore have handily won if there was no Monicagate?

[SoCalDem]

2. She should have kept her mouth shut... TWICE

..he was a dog..but she was an eager participant.. She was not a 13 yr old girl who did not know better..

There are times, I wonder if she was not "too eager" to have had that idea all by herself..(winkwinknudgenudgeknowwhatImean?)

She had way more than her 15 minutes of fame...and she has had ample time to make some money off the whole thing, so she just needs to get on with her life..

[Scairp]

122. Yes

It always annoyed me how the some in the media portrayed her as this naive young thing who didn't know any better and was taken advantage of by the most politically powerful man in the country, or even the western world. IMO, she was looking to further her own interests by getting involved with the President of the United States. She was 24 wasn't she? Hell, I was married and had two kids before I turned 24. Sorry, but 24 isn't a child, especially a 24-year-old who has gone to undergrad university AND graduated from law school. She knew what she was doing and could have declined to participate in this illicit relationship. She had her own agenda but it blew up in her face because, as you say, she couldn’t keep her mouth shut for any reason.

[aquart]

3. She seems fine to me.

[Blue-Jay]

4. If she knew how to keep her fucking mouth shut,

it wouldn't be a problem, would it? No. Little Miss Suckysucky thrives on the attention.

[Killarney]

5. She's a good for nothing whore.

It takes two to tango and she and Clinton are both guilty. I'm sick of her playing the victim. Whore.

I have no respect for anyone that messes with a married person (and no respect for the married person that messes around).

Plus, she KEPT the blue dress! Cue psycho theme.

[porphyrian]

6. She Should Thank Him For Giving Her A Life

Who the fuck would be talking about her now if she hadn't been busted for blowing Bill? She should be happy a nobody like her got to be on SNL thanks to her relationship with Clinton.

[moondust]

7. And for saying that she got...

I believe they said $75,000. Good work if you can get it.

[redqueen]

12. OMFG

Was that for this 'interview' or for her book?

I'm really starting to detest this whore.

[moondust]

21. Well, unless

she has a book coming out sometime in the relatively near future, I think the context suggests it was for the interview. Heard it this morning on CNNMSNBC sort of in one ear (and out the other).

[redqueen]

25. Jeezaloo

I can understand that for a book I guess... but an *interview*?!

WTF is wrong with people?! Is THIS why newsrooms' budgets are being cut left and right? So they can pay outrageous sums to fools for 'interviews' that get the lowest common denominator's attention?

[moondust]

57. Correction: "Upwards of $175,000."

For the ITV television and magazine interview. Per Donna Friesen reporting from London on MSNBC.

[redqueen]

8. Did she really? Makes me wonder about how she grew up.

Please let me know a detail or two so I can do a search. My curiosity is piqued now.

I wonder if throwing herself at married men is a habit of hers. Has there been any scoop on her love life since she screwed this country up with her big fat blabbering mouth?

I'm sick of seeing her face, honestly. Why couldn't Bill have picked a discrete woman, like Jennifer Fitzgerald?

[GiovanniC]

13. Do NOT Sully Jennifer Granholm's Good Name!

n/t

[redqueen]

15. Fixed

thanks

[GiovanniC]

23. You're Forgiven

Didn't mean to sound hostile, but tone isn't translated over the Internet very well.

Giovanni <---- Still loves :loveya: ya!

Giovanni <---- Also loves :loveya: his governor!

:yourock:

[redqueen]

27. Sorry bout that

I'm in quite a mood today I tells ya.

:loveya: Right back atcha babe. :)

[whistle]

33. Who is Jennifer Fitzgerald?

...do you have pics?

[Wapsie B]

49. Poppy's mistress.

The old guy blew a cork when a reporter asked him about her.





http://www.tylwythteg.com/enemies/Bush/bush15.html

[redqueen]

61. And Linda Tripp KNEW

But kept silent.

Was she paid to be so uninterested in Jennifer? Was she paid to get Monica 'on board'?

[Neecy]

115. yep

It was Mary Tillotson of CNN who asked - and was quickly bounced from the WH beat.

This was in the days when CNN actually had reporters.

[Vickers]

9. Why did you save the dress, Monica?

Nothing like a little agenda, eh?

[texastoast]

77. Momento of the moment

That's all she got of Bill and all she would ever have. She knew it, too. Poor little girl whore.

[Warren DeMontague]

10. You want to talk about lives ruined?

If she hadn't blown the Prez, and then, yes, helped turn it into a scandal, maybe Il Doofe might not have been able to steal the 2000 election. How many more people would still be alive? Her life is ruined? At least she's still got a life. She can sell gucci handbags or Mary Kay cosmetics or whatever the fuck she's doing. She didn't get wires attached to her genitals or have a glow-stick shoved up her *ss at Abu Ghraib. Her life is ruined. Welcome to the %*&)@%ing club, lady.

[redqueen]

17. Her life is not 'ruined' that's complete BS

$75K for braying about decade-old blowjob stories? I wish my life was that ruined.

[treepig]

11. is she married?

if not, how can she be an adulterer?

[whistle]

43. Ahaaa, the question of the ages, look here.....

...."If you have sex with a married man, and you are not . Are you commiting adultery?"

There is a married man that I think wants to have sex with me sometime, but I'm not sure if I will be the one commiting adultery. I know he will be.
- littlepupluv

For responses to this got to <link>:

http://adultfriendfinder.com/magazine/advice/15666.html

[treepig]

59. ok, thanks. seems like the consensus is more or less that

what she really is is a fornicator.

of course, depending on what the definition of is is

[BurtWorm]

14. I don't begrudge her her bitterness.

I really don't. I actually wish her well. It wasn't really Clinton who destroyed her life, though. I hope she'll see that eventually.

[ArkDem]

16. She was a republican mole.

[BlueEyedSon]

20. Wasn't Gary Hart taken down the same way?

http://www.ishipress.com/donnaric.htm

Wasn't that a Republican set-up?

[Eric J in MN]

24. No, she wasn't. (nt)

nt

[Mike Daniels]

81. Even if she was mole

Clinton could have kept it zipped up.

It takes to tango but Clinton is the one who was in a position to say no thanks and he didn't.

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

18. Her 15 minutes of fame drag on.

I have no sympathy for Monica or "Big Dawgy". Both of them should have kept their mouths shut. Especially Bill and his pathetic cover-up attempt.

[noiretextatique]

39. likewise...no sympathy for either of them

the cover-up attempt was pathetic. the damage he did still pisses me off.

[Eric J in MN]

19. It's not fair to blame Lewinsky for Bush's election.

Linda Tripp might have found someone else having an affair with Clinton if Lewinsky had never gone to Washington.

[redqueen]

29. Is it fair to ingore Tripp's obsession with this,

and her SILENCE about Jennifer Fitzgerald?

Sorry... I'm not buing the 'someone else could have done it' crap.

Who the hell keeps a semen-stained dress? Is Monica insane or was she working with an agenda?

[Eric J in MN]

34. maybe it was a souvenir to her (nt)

nt

[redqueen]

62. So you vote 'insane'

K.

[Fleshdancer]

22. give me a f*cking break!!!!

Monica, you ignorant slut. Perhaps you could have thought about the CONSEQUENCES prior to putting a married man's penis in your mouth. Just a thought.

[GreenArrow]

32. and of course, the married man

has no responsibility. I'm sure he hated every second of it. Such is the fate of man, forever falling victim to the predations of ruthless "sluts."

[noiretextatique]

44. funny how many peope have called her a "slut" in this thread

:puke: when clinton has proven himself to be a bigger SLUT, and a WHORE. that old double standard...

[GreenArrow]

47. yeah, it's sickening

and disheartening.

[hiphopnation]

50. Agreed

the acrimony is somewhat reminiscent of another political forum board that I know of...:think:

What's the obsession with reliving the hate?

[Warpy]

52. Clinton aint playing the victim here

and after all, Lewinsky admits to instigating the whole thing.

She's got to be a repig, considering how little responsibility she's taken for the whole thing. So her scheme of dislodging Hillary and Chelsea and taking over as a trophy wife didn't work out. It sure as hell doesn't make her any kind of a victim.

Just go away, Monica. Find some dissolute old fart with a title and marry into privileged obscurity. Just go away.

[ArkDem]

68. I thought you had to be attractive to be a trophy wife.

[noiretextatique]

71. who said she is a victim? i just said clinton is a WHORE

and a SLUT :hi:

[redqueen]

80. Sure he's a slut whore too

But he's not currently feeding the other side ammo, now, is he?

[noiretextatique]

86. he did enough harm already by not keeping his pants zipped

when he knew "the other side" was out to get him. smart man, stupid choice.

[redqueen]

88. Agree completely

He and she both were trouble during the media Clenis fest... but the only one now presently ticking me off is her, because she's helping the right. Either she's a dumb fucking slut for not realizing how much she's helping republicans or she IS a republican.

Either way, I have no pity at all for her now. I may later, after she STOPS helping the RNC.

[noiretextatique]

92. let her help them...who cares?

no one with half a brain will be moved by her...she made the bed she's LYING in, just as clinton did. unfortunately HIS ACTIONS cost us a lot more than hers.

[redqueen]

95. I see your point

but I would like to see as many half-brained people as possible vote Democratic in November. :)

[noiretextatique]

97. unfortunately...they probably won't

especially if they are moved by her sob story :puke:
:D on a brighter note, perhaps dems can pick up some "angry white men" who feel clinton was entrapped by an "evil slut."

[redqueen]

100. WTF?

Only white men have affairs?

Like the edit! Has anyone actually called her an 'evil slut', or did you just make that up?

[noiretextatique]

102. there is a another thread about "condemning" her

you should read it. and you have called her a clut and a whore in this thread, among others. white men are more likely TO VOTE REPUBLICAN, than say black men...hence my singling out of that group.

[Fleshdancer]

121. HELLO. This thread is about Lewinsky.

If this thread was about Clinton, then I would call him a slut too. But it's not. It's a response to something Monica Lewinsky said so there's nothing wrong with having a reaction directed at her.

[digno dave]

124. Bill, Bill, Bill, what in the hell were you thinking...

[redqueen]

63. Of course he does

Who is saying he doesn't? Please let me know.

Thanks!

[hiphopnation]

69. I think

if I might presume to speak on GA's behalf, the point is it's telling how many people on this thread are quick to call Monica a ruthless slut who was out to take down Big Dog from the beginning.:shrug:

If Clinton had had the presence of mind to not engage in the act in the first place, i.e. be a responsible husband and public servent, then none of this would be an issue.

But how dare me try to place any of the onus on the Big Dog's shoulder's. Tsk tsk tsk...

[redqueen]

79. So nobody is

Thanks!

[hiphopnation]

84. You got me there!

I think. :shrug:

But at least you added the "eyes" to really "give it to me". I'm speechless Ms. Last-word-Queen. Oh wait, no I'm not.

:thumbsup:

[redqueen]

89. There

is that more to your liking?

[GreenArrow]

113. read the thread

I promise you they are there, and also in the thread in LBN.

[Fleshdancer]

120. What?

The thread is about Lewinsky. Of course Clinton has just as much responsibility and if the thread was about how Clinton said that Lewinsky affair ruined his life, I would have the exact same reaction.

Both were sluts.

[GreenArrow]

125. "this thread is about lewinsky"

Here's an experiment:

try saying the name Monica Lewinsky and see if you can keep Bill Clinton from popping into your head. They are forever intertwined.

[Mike Daniels]

83. Of course Clinton could have through about the consequences as well

Christ, how stupid could the guy be. While running for election he had everyone coming out left and right claiming to have had sex with him behind Hillary's back.

Did he actually think there was no chance of it happening again? Given that it was a big deal during the campaign why would he think this wouldn't be any different?

Sometimes I think people give Clinton too much credit on the intelligence front.

[redqueen]

91. Clinton's not currently helping the RNC

THAT'S the issue to me.

[noiretextatique]

94. she's not a democratic leader

:wtf: why shouldn't she "help the RNC?" :shrug: who cares anyway.

[redqueen]

99. Right, who cares n/t

[Fleshdancer]

119. I definately agree with you there

both were idiots.

[whistle]

26. Well Clinton could have written his memoirs under a pseudonym...

...say Henry Miller, used fictitious names and titled the book Tropic of Cape Horn (or Horny). Life is stranger than fiction sometimes, so I'm glad he has written and published this book. The truth shall win in the end. As for Ms. Lewinsky, she sounds like no matter what kind of life the good Lord provides to her, she is not likely ever to be happy. She should stop blaming others for her misery and start working on herself.

I'm looking forward to reading Clinton's book, as I'm becoming weary and bored reading about the kind of incompetent, dull, stupid and totally lifeless actions of the likes of George W Bush, BushCo folks and the neo-con fundies freepers who seem to think they have something to contribute to society. Bring on the revolution!:nuke:

[hlthe2b]

28. She is (& has been ) extremely emotionally unstable...

Best thing for us to do is PITY her AND IGNORE her! (and hope she gets some help)

[redqueen]

31. Sorry

not possible as long as she keeps helping republicans to tear this country apart.

[hlthe2b]

35. don't think I don't hold her responsible for her actions...

I do. But, she is such a pathetic creature now, that it feels a bit like kicking a cripple to do anything but just shake my head and turn away...

[redqueen]

64. She got $175K for spewing that crap

And you feel like she's a victim here?

[hlthe2b]

73. Definition of PATHETIC: implies scorn and contempt, not pure sympathy

Definition: (adj) inspiring scornful pity; "how silly an ardent and unsuccessful; mixed contempt and pity;

I'm simply saying that any public attacking her only adds to the controversy and her "15 minutes" of infamy. Our best course is to ignore her as the pathetic creature that she is...

[redqueen]

82. Well you used the 'cripple' analogy

which doesn't exactly mesh very well with the adjective you chose.

I get you, and I agree... but I know it doesn't matter for crap what *we* do... ignore her or not... the RNC will use this.

[hiphopnation]

51. Hear hear!

(attempting to ignore) Wadaya know about the Plame investigation? Will Bush end up behind bars where he belongs?

Do you have a good apple pie recipe? If a tree falls in the woods, etc. etc. etc.

[TexasSissy]

30. Lewinsky shouldn't be demonized. She was a young chick.

Who among us didn't make some pretty big snafus at that age? I'm just glad nothing I did at that age was frozen in time and exposed for all the world to see. Was she stupid, foolish, immoral, and all the rest? Sure. But she was, after all, in her early 20's.

36. A lot of people don't seem to understand "he who is without sin"

They are holier-than-thou, as bad as some of the hypocrites on the "other side."
No one has a monopoly on the truth cuts both ways -- no one has a monopoly on being an asshole either.

edit-- Just to be clear, I'm referring to the general tenor of some of these postings I 'm reading. Hope making that clear doesn't get me in trouble! I'm making it clear anyway.

[Killarney]

38. She KEPT the dress.

That wasn't something just any regular chick in her 20's would do.

[TexasSissy]

101. True. Only the smart (or dirty) ones would do that.

[Kahuna]

58. Old enough to know she shouldn't chase the married president..

of the United States.

[GreenArrow]

78. yep, Marilyn Monroe should have known better too

Shouldn't the president of the USA be able to rise above these petty, mundane tempations?

[TexasSissy]

105. HE was the married one. HE was the government official. HE is

the one who owed the country and his family a duty not to do such a stupid thing. HE chased her as much as she chased him. HE was the middle aged one.

Sorry. When one of the people is much older and experienced, that is the person who I assign blame to in an ill-advised liason. Not that the other person isn't wrong, also. But it would be much easier for him to fool her than the other way around.

I'm stickin' by my guns. No demonizing of young women who get involved with middle-aged politicians. It's the middle-aged politicians who are primarily responsible. (It's not like it's the first time they did that, usually.)

[kentuck]

37. Darling, Lucinanne Goldberg and Linda Tripp "ruined" your life....

Let's be realistic....

[Jack The Tab]

98. HEAR HEAR! Good point - I would add Ken Starr and the media ...

n/t

[Delano]

40. I thought SHE came on to HIM.

HE didn't force HER to BLAB everything to her PIG "friend" Linda.

Anymore than he forced her to eat the cheeseburgers that apparently have her ballooning into the 300 lb range...

[playahata1]

54. Good Lord, she looks like a drugged-up version of

ANN WILSON of HEART.

[ArkDem]

114. He may have given a pointer or two..

[geek tragedy]

41. I have two words for Ms. Lewinsky:

Boo fucking Hoo.

[ArkDem]

70. That is three words

[geek tragedy]

72. Did you ever see the film "Midnight Run?"

Classic "buddy" movie about a bounty hunter and an escaped embezzler, played by Robert DeNiro and Charles Grodin, respectively.

DeNiro: (After hearing Grodin yap incessantly) I have two words for you: Shut the fuck up!

[ArkDem]

93. That is four words

[geek tragedy]

109. It is also a joke.

Not sure if that counts as one or two words.

[robbedvoter]

76. That's 3! ;-)

[amazona]

42. her life isn't ruined

Who even knows if she was quoted correctly, I'm losing my trust in the press in this matter. Her life certainly isn't ruined, her entire status as a celebrity is based having flashed a thong and given the president a blowjob. Maybe she has to say these things to keep in the public eye, who knows, but I think the Clintons should just ignore these kind of comments and go on with their lives. I don't think Bill owes anyone an explanation or an apology other than his wife. There is never anything to be gained with hashing things over with an ex. Confronting a past lover, extracting apologies from a past lover -- nothing good ever comes of this and she is delusional if she really expected this from a married man.

[redqueen]

66. I'm sure the Clinton's are ignoring her

do you think the US press will do the same?

[Zookeeper]

45. Well, she certainly is determined to remain...

stupid and naive about the whole "affair." She is STILL trying to make it out to be a serious, adult, romantic affair. I don't buy it. Bill is acting exactly like the average married man who has been caught. I doubt that he ever took the "romance" as seriously as she suggests.

[displacedtexan]

46. MSNBC reported this morning...

that Monica was paid $100,000 for that interview.

[obnoxiousdrunk]

48. Monica should be

glad that she got to do something that millions around the world fantasize doing.

[cmf]

53. Her life was ruined?

:wtf: She's so freaking delusional.

[AngryAmish]

55. Fat slut's life is ruined?

Puh-lease.

[GreenArrow]

111. "fat slut's life is ruined?"

Not at all, he just published his member, er memoirs, and it's a Number One Bestseller!

[StopThief]

60. Here's the link

Thanks for posting that!

85. link to Clinton admitting affair with Gennifer Flowers

to the story about Gennifer nearly DESTROYING the President's life.

http://www.cnn.com/ALLPOLITICS/1998/01/22/flowers.king/

Poor man, poor innocent, constantly beset with ruthless harpies who want to do him in.

[redqueen]

104. It's really strange that so many people want to trash Clinton here

really really strange. I mean... considering it's an election year...

I have my problems with the man, but hmmmmmmm....

Let's see.

Monica, the serial mistress with loose lips decides to cash in for some more payola in return for bashing Clinton just about *four months* from THE MOST important election in generations...

No... I really don't understand why people are standing up to defend Monica and trash Clinton here.

[GreenArrow]

110. redqueen, I'm a bit surprised

because I usually agree with you. But in this case, as with most others, there are two sides to the story, and in this thread, and in the one in LBN, most of the venom is being cast at Monica. For example, in your post you refer to Monica as the "serial mistress with loose lips..." If one accepts that as being accurate, if rather crass, then, in the interest of fairness, one could refer to the "Big Dog" as the serial adulterer who fancies mouth to genital contact, lovingly given by loose lipped serial mistresses. I think it would be fair to state that the "encounter" between these two was of mutual benefit.

Last I remember, BC was older, more experienced, married and in the position of greater power, socially, politically, and personally. Evidently, wisdom does not automatically come with age or experience. He is not above criticism.

[sangh0]

118. There are two sides? Really?

I couldn't tell. Most of the posters in this thread seem to think it's only one side or the other.

[AussieInCA]

65. OMG OMG!!!

you mean she didn't know he was married????/

you mean she didn't know the possible consequences of her actions?

you mean she couldn't of said 'no' or left?

you mean she is a victim to actions she chose to partake in?

you mean your life was so ruined that since it has happened you have been profiting off the spoils of your unethical behavior?


ROFL, how pathetic....who are you kidding.


Live with the responsibilities of your actions and be honest that you are a selfish, exploitive individual that will gladly do as they please to feed your personal greed.

[PopSixSquish]

74. Just Go Away Monica

we're tired of listening to you.

[Cat Atomic]

75. Why is everybody swarming to attack this woman?

Seriously- I find this sort of group think very disturbing. It turns on a dime.

Lou Dobbs is the sole voice of reason on television one minute, and he's a corporate whore the next. Lewinsky is a victim of Linda Tripp on minute, and a "fat whore" the next.

Ms. Lewinsky feels let down by the way Bill Clinton portrayed their affair. That's a pretty fair position, I'd say.

Why does everybody attack people when they disagree with some sainted fucking "leader"? Is Bill Clinton so close to God that he's above criticism?

[redqueen]

87. Not about her criticizing a 'sainted leader'

Please... I have problems with Bill and didn't like him as President... but do you really not see how this whoring to the press feeds the republican party?

Is she a republican or is she truly ignorant of how her crap self-pity will be used to HELP BUSH in this election cycle?

[Cat Atomic]

90. Maybe she was asked a question. Maybe she answered it.

Why not just take her comments for what they are, instead of twisting them into some sort of new right-wing smear campaign?

I think people are attacking her because she's putting the "Big Dog" in a bad light, period.

[GreenArrow]

103. the reason that they're attacking...

the men, at least, is simply cause they are jealous, IMO. Almost certainly the case with Republican men.

And you are probably right about the putting the "Big Dog" in a bad light; people identify so strongly with their hero that criticism of him is the same as criticism of themselves.

[redqueen]

106. You can think whatever you like

but that's certainly NOT the reason I'm ticked off.

And she was PAID over 100k to answer that question. Please don't pretend she was some innocent on the street and somebody just walked up to her and asked.

[hiphopnation]

96. You're giving it more attention than most people!

Why can't YOU ignore her and let this pathetic story fade into the sunset??

Your approach to the topic is only fodder for the repuke cannon, IMHO. :thumbsup:

[redqueen]

108. OK I'll quit posting

and let's watch as it fades away.

Or not.

[noiretextatique]

107. it's tradition to blame the woman in these situations

see the other thread in GD about "condemning" her. sounds like something the taliban would agree with...

[TexasSissy]

112. Yes. Maybe we should have her wear a scarlet "A"?

That's the mentality of this post. Preacher goes free to have a good life, while the vixen woman is shunned and made to worn a scarlet A on her chest.

But maybe a Scarlet A won't do. How 'bout a Barka? That way, she won't be able to "tempt" other married men.

[noiretextatique]

117. a stoning is more appropriate for her offense

an evil temptress seducing (otherwise) virtuous married men :puke:
how about the 'morality' of a man old enough to be her father preying on her vulnerability...or ambition...or stupidity? not too mention the inappropriateness of a man in a powerful position fraternizing with a junior employee.

[TexasSissy]

123. That's the ticket.

[geniph]

116. What I think is pathetic

is that anyone, anywhere cares enough about a consensual sex act between two adult persons to even have an opinion about it. Let's face it, none of us have been in that precise situation. Can I say I wouldn't have done what either of them did, in those circumstances? No, I cannot. Although I do wash my laundry rather more consistently than that.

But honestly, this continuing Puritanical streak in this culture disturbs me. Half the world is still wrinkling their brows in great puzzlement, wondering why we're so shocked that powerful men sometimes have sex with young women outside their marriages. We're so hypocritical about sex - obsessed with it and ashamed of it at the same time. Bizarre.
