Did you really expect any different response?

Estrich has always been about advancing her partisan ideology, not about what the truth is in any particular situation.

We've all heard her utter the most cynical absurdities time after time, and indeed, often it seems to me she can barely keep a straight face when doing so. A prime reason she is so often called upon to participate in the talking head debates on the cable news shows is because she can reliably be counted on to take the liberal political side of the debate, regardless of what the facts would suggest in any particular event.

Susan no doubt thinks she comes across as smart and clever, but those who agree with her politically generally don't care about underlying facts and anyone else with more than two brain cells sees right through her sophistry.

If it became widely believed among the voting public, especially women, that Bill Clinton did indeed forcibly rape Ms. Broaddrick, then not only would Bill Clinton personally be discredited, but the political agenda Estrich and the Clintons believes in would suffer, and Hillary Clinton herself would be dealt a serious blow for the future.

To Estrich and and Hillary Clinton, the "cause" is more important than the injury to this one particular woman, indeed more important than the lives of any of the other Paula Joneses and Kathleen Willeys who have had the misfortune to personally encounter Bill Clinton. Putting the political cause over the lives of real people is indeed a hallmark of the left, and in its radical form has directly caused the deaths of many, many millions and the impoverishment of many times more than that.

No, this is not surprising at all. But she has now given us some ammunition. Let's see how to use it to maximum benefit. Please help get it on talk radio and the blogs. Maybe we can diminish her book. Maybe we can diminish Hillary. Maybe talk show hosts will challenge her to meet with Juanita. We have an opportunity here.

While Clinton did the alleged act and deserves the punishment, it certainly says a LOT towards Hillary's character that she sought Juanita out at that event and gripped her hand for too long, THANKING Juanita. It means Clinton himself must have told Hillary at least that he attacked or got very rough with Juanita, and all Hillary wanted (needed!) was for Juanita to shut up.

Thus Hillary cares little about releasing a (repeat?) rapist into society (on Air Force One, yet). Cares less about women who are true victims. But cares most about her own political power, even if she gets it riding on the boxer shorts of a man.

Do you think she (& Hillary, et al) are so attached to the ideology that they have compartmentalized WJC's behavior so thoroughly into a place where they don't have to think about it that they can allow themselves to believe it never happened?

Cause that would be really "messed up." If that were the case, meeting with Mrs. Broaddrick would be a very unpleasant moment; it would force Susan Estrich to confront her own delusions. I'm actually feeling somewhat sorry for her; she sounds like she needs help.

Well said.

I predict that someday, when the former philanderer in Chief has died of AIDS or some other STD, and Hitlary has been fettered off to the Socialist's Old Folks home, that many many women who were previously afraid of Arkancide will come foward with stories of brutal rape by Slick Willie.
