Dallas, I love your efforts at captioning pictures, however this picture of Linda Tripp is far too complex for simple answers. For instance, a few months ago it was reported that she was living in someones garage apartment on a farm. The AP article mentions that she had her house rented, but that it is empty now. Those things taken in context are understandable. Out of context they lead to the kinds of things that are now being said about Linda.
Yesterday's heros remain just that. The public that benefited from Linda Tripp is now blithely coasting along looking for a newer hero.
You've got that right! I just finished updating a resume for my 22 year old daughter (single mother of a 10 month old) who recently lost her marketing job...she is working nights at IHOP as a waitress for $2.14 plus tips until she can get another office position. She works nights so she won't have to hire a babysitter, her boyfriend works days and watches the baby at night. She just interviewed for a front desk clerk position with the local Marriott Hotel...I pray that she will get the job. When I look at her determination to succeed despite the obstacles, I am so proud!
Linda was a tattle tale even before Clinton! She was responsible for blabbing about George H. Bush. Dubya knows better than to hire her. She's trouble
No one likes a snitch no matter how righteous.
I don't know if you've read all my comments, but I just think she is wasting her most productive years in a futile effort to get her government job back. She can do better....
I appreciate your insight...
For those who forgot, she is the supposed paramour of George H Bush as gossiped and eventually reported courtesy of yours truly......Linda Tripp!
I mean REALLY think about it!
Clinton would most probably have not gotten impeached. Having got away with it, he might have tried to pull more crap.
ALL OF US HERE would still be labled as a bunch of right wing conspiracy nuts who are out to get the poor president. None of us would be able to rightfully, legitimately and without hestitation be able to say to liberals that Clinton is a criminal liar. Every single scandal that the Clintons have been involved in would be passed off as just another mud-slinging attack. We would have no evidence that Clinton is a liar and untrustworthy. Personally I think Linda Tripp should have been given a medal! Do I even need to remind anyone here about the eight years of corruption, coverups, illegalities, fraud, and murder? I don't know about you guys, but during the Clinton regime, I lost a lot of sleep.
That's no joke.
I lost sleep wondering how on earth my fellow country men and women could support and stand up for Clinton. I lost sleep wondering how a criminal could be the lead law enforcement officer of the United States. I lost sleep at how people could just turn a blind eye to the wanton massacre of over 80 citizens in Waco. I lost sleep wondering how people in this country would just close ears to any and all evidence of profound wrong doings by the leader simply because the economy was good!
I firmly believe that history will vindicate us. Linda Tripp provided us with the proof.
It makes me sick to think that all of the crooks in the Clinton regime have gotten away with impunity while Linda Tripp suffers. She cannot get a job with any high profile company. The media made sure of that with her attempt to get a job with "The Stars and Strips" in Germany. I can just see her right now working at a gas station or convenience store. As soon as the media would find out, she would be out of a job. And Jay Leno and Saturday Night Live would have material to hammer her with.
What in the hell is the matter with some of you?! You don't like Linda Tripp because a couple of years ago she made $100,000 a year? You don't like her because a few years before that she engaged in gossip? How many of you could say that you haven't heard a rumor and told someone else? It almost seems to me that there are some people here who are looking for a reason to dislike Tripp.
I made a contribution to Linda's legal defense fund today. I'm ashamed that I didn't do it a long time ago. I wish that I could have sent her more. I don't blame her for not writing a book. The minute she does, the leftists in the press are going to crusify her again. Their going to say that the only reason that she acted as she did was so that she could sell books. Leno and Saturday Night Live will have another field day. We should all be supporting her!
I'll contribute just to piss off Carville and Lanny. Evil must not prevail.
I got your "attempt" right here. In the words of Bill Clinotn "Kiss it".
Clinton lied to FIX a court case. Jones had a right to a trial and under the law, a right to point out that Monica Lewinsky could confirm Bubba's pattern of mis-behavior.
Bubba LIED so that Lewinsky would become evidence, THAT'S obstruction.
Don't be naive. Pain can administered in many fashions.
Concur.
With apologies to those I'll mention right now, all that most people remember about impeachment is that Paula had a big nose and slept around, Linda was ugly and untrustworthy and Starr was a winp that couldn't get laid. The Clintonistas used ridicule to GREAT effect and it saved their asses.
Bush machine gunned the lifeboat and the survivors on this one.
After reading that, and giving the background of it to the context of your later arguements, I must still disagree with the import of the legal aspects of the recordings but certainly take back my criticism of your post as supporting the Past-Perpetrator-in-Chief. You have my apology for a too-hasty flame.....
those damn Clinton's make my blood boil and always will...thereby making my eyes sometimes cloud over when I think I see any in their camp....
Freep On
You should be proud of a wonderful daughter who clearly has a sense of responsiblity. I wish her and her family the best of luck.
