This is fascinating, really. Every day, millions of people have affairs but her youthfully reckless decision cost her decades of self-worth and happiness. It isn't like she murdered someone, right? The most striking thing here is how much it devastated her life but had no real long-term impact on the Clintons, due to there total lack of morality.
Make no mistake, though Lewinsky is still a lib, no matter how badly she was used. Just like a good Marxist will be faithful to the party even after being milked dry and discarded.

Poor Monica if only she hadn't been caught she never would have been humiliated for servicing the married President of the United States.

...she never would have been humiliated for being just another notch on Slick's bedpost.

[DIRTYSECRET]

That’s all Bill will be remembered for. Tough titty.

[Don Corleone]

Cheney is right IMHO.

[dfwgator]

Who frickin cares about this slut?

She has graduated into an elite group: people who learn from their mistakes.

The natural disposition is always to believe. It is acquired wisdom and experience only that teach incredulity, and they very seldom teach it enough. The wisest and most cautious of us all frequently gives credit to stories which he himself is afterwards both ashamed and astonished that he could possibly think of believing. - Adam Smith, Theory of Moral Sentiments

The Blue dress should be on display at the Smithsonian - along with the Oval office bathroom sink.

[Eric in the Ozarks]

I’m surprised it’s not on display at Clinton’s presidential library.

[Vinnie]

IIRC she got a job from one of Clinton’s friends making around $75k/yr.
Not bad for a teenager with scraped up knees. That was pretty good money back then.

And the BS about Clinton taking advantage of her.
She admitted she intentionally bent over his desk showing off her thong to entice him.

[dowcaet]

Monica may have learned from her mistakes but the Clintons keep making them and all they’ve learned is covering up is better than admitting the truth.

[hoosiermama]

Dude its been years ago. What difference does it make?
That’s all the article implies in more flowery terms .....Same attitude!

[upchuck]

IMHO, nothing more than a cheap media-driven trick so that Killary can call this “old news” as she runs to finish the destruction of our country.

[ridesthemiles]

Cry me a river, Monica.

You put yourself into that position of ‘humiliation’,and you certainly wre old enough to know better.

Apparently, the genetic ability to recognize a world-class horn-dog isn’t getting passed on to younger generations.

The Clinton's were major criminals even before they inhabited the White House. One of many Clinton scams—harvesting blood from the Arkansas prison population—left many transfusion recipients in the U.S. and Canada with ghastly diseases including AIDS. Later they sold U.S. policy to the highest bidder, transferring advanced military technology to China in exchange for campaign cash, a crime that included top congressional Democrats. The collapse of the Soviet Union presented a unique opportunity for the U.S. to influence and nurture Democracy in Russia. Instead Clinton and Al Gore turned loose a group of greedy Democrat cronies—including George Soros—to loot Russia of mineral and industrial assets at fire sale prices.

These and many more crimes are the real legacy of these glorified chicken thieves.

[beachn4fun]

Well, that certainly is a medieval outlook in this enlightened age.

Funny how a woman who has sex with more than one guy is a slut, but a guy who bangs numerous women is lifted up as being a man’s-man who knows how to score.

I suppose if it were the other way around, you’d be touting his exploits at having achieved the elite designation of banging the female prez instead of calling him a slut.

IMO, she got a rotten deal. She was forced into hiding as if she wore a scarlet letter on her forehead, but it’s like Clinton’s part was swept under the rug.

[dfwgator]

Exactly. She knew precisely what she was doing.

You mean to tell me she didn’t know he was married? Please.

Not to excuse Clinton, but this narrative about “poor naive Monica” won’t hunt.

[TomGuy]

In a recent interview, she said:

"I, myself, deeply regret what happened between me and President Clinton.... "

Notice that, whenever a Clinton -- especially Hillary, is being portrayed as the media darling, Monica manages to find cameras and microphones -- and then complains with her 'poor me' that she wants out of the limelight.

When Hillary was speeding along to her coronation in 2008, Monica was in the MSM news as much as Hillary.

Monica is still capitalizing on the Clinton affair.

[TomGuy]

Agree.

Yet, even the ‘conservative’ talkies are spending large time segments on her and what happened nearly 2 decades ago.

Even on FR there have been DOZENS of threads about her in the last week or so. And, these are the same topics and comments FR was getting in 2008, etc.

Whenever Hillary is getting positive attention, Monica seems to manage to find cameras and microphones, too.

The only positive note is that FoxNews is NOT running BREAKING NEWS - MONICA every 10 minutes.

Monica may have learned from her mistakes but the Clintons keep making them

hillary is still treating Monica as an object of scorn rather than as a person. I think it hurts hillary that her mean streak is coming through and that should hurt her image with younger voters.
