To my other dear Goldberg friend, Jonah, and to Jonah’s Fair Jessica, and to Lucianne’s namesake, their daughter LucyI didn't know Jonah was straight.

"She was dazzled by Clinton’s social brilliance and gained a respect for him she had never had before." You see, even this pig-headed broad came around to realizing what a wonderful president Clinton was.
Or at least that's the subtext I'm reading into this obit.

Respecting his undeniable social brilliance isn’t the same as ‘realizing what a wonderful president’ he was.
I have respect for some of Bill’s abilities as well, but I think he’s a bad guy who uses them for evil purposes.
To: billorites
It is nice to know of people like this - those who appear to know how to walk, or at least laugh at the always moving fluid line between good and evil.

She was Freeper Trixie in the early days. For those who don’t know, the mentioned late Barbara Olsen was Freeper BKO.

That’s not it at all. She recognized his personal social skill which has always been highlighted. I find him smarmy but also now this “charm” helped get him elected.

You have to remember that the obit was written by a dyed-in-the-wool neocon. Notice how he spends the entire obit talking about her social interactions and nothing about her politics even though that was a big part of her later life.
Imagine this same twit writing an obit for her son. The amount of ink spilled touting Jonah's "world view" would drown an elephant.
To: newzjunkey
See my 11. When Lucianne died, the staff of Lucianne had to make it clear that her son would have nothing to do with the site going forward.
To: who_would_fardels_bear
Nah. I can have respect for someone’s talents, and dislike their art. Perhaps she was similar in that respect?

My personal memory of Lucianne was at the First Roundtable Meeting of the Vast Right-Wing Conspiracy. We met in DC while there to protest against Bill Clinton. It was great fun.
To: perfect_rovian_storm
Bill Clinton, more than any other politician I can think of, would make the perfect dinner guest. I certainly would like to sit next to him. Who wouldn't?
He would show genuine interest in you, be funny and charming and leave you with fond and generous memories.
It is rare in any business to meet someone with such abilities, but people cite Clinton as someone with that skill set.
Now, his wife is another matter.

In my pre FR days I was on her site. She put bizarre restrictions on postings so I eventually found my way here and didn’t really look back after that. RIP Lucianne (aka Trixie)

Yeah. I forgot her username was Trixie.
I thought it was a cheap move to leave and start he own Free Republic rip-off site.
It was an exact copy of Free Republic.
