'Clindit'

The Wall Street Journal ^ | CHRISTOPHER HITCHENS

[VinnyTex]

"Clindit." The combo name has a vague but appropriate indecency to it. Even those who repudiate the parallelism are compelled to run a sort of check-off list to reassure themselves that there isn't any real comparison between Gary Condit and Bill Clinton. (And it must say something about the "legacy" of our most recent ex-president that this uncouth auction of comparable features is most forcibly suggested by mentions of the suborning of perjury and the obstruction of justice.) How far may the analogy be extended?

Hitchens can be a horse's ass at times, but as one of the very few liberals who was unwilling to participate in Clinton's sleazy war against his female accusers, he will always have a place in my heart.

No more Blowdry? Is it Vacuum now?

Never thought I'd see the day that Hitchen's was printed in the WSJ......now I have to go back and READ the article! LOL!

[FBI Special Agent Dale Cooper]

Most enjoyable!

This is one brutal article. Christopher has outdone himself.

I was reminded of Clinton's three rapes-something that haunts me to this day.

I cannot, for the life of me, understand how hillary rodbutt clinton can stand to be linked thru marriage to a man she knows very well has hurt, my gosh, RAPED other women.

It chills me-and causes me to distrust this women with all of my heart. What type of heinous, shallow, driven creep would STAND for her husband to RAPE other human beings. Makes me think the clintons have done MUCH MUCH worse than rape, for rape to be such an accepted, and without consequence, part of their past.

[SkyPilot]

This article highlights the true evil of what Clinton was more so than what a pathetic liar Condit is.

The reminders of the rapes, cruise missile attacks against innocents to deflect attention, abuse of public employees, abuse of power, perjury, and outright shamelessness remind us of what a nightmare he was.

Congressman Condemn tried to immitate him. He just isn't good at it.

[A Citizen Reporter]

"One cringes at the phrase, but as he surveys the checklist of comparisons, the congressman can only feel penis-envy for the ex-president. "

Oh my.......ouch......dear Hitch!

[Salvation]

Deserves a scumbag bump.

Ah, I beg to differ, although I hate to, the article is wonderful. However, two young girls did accuse Condit of raping them several years ago. They fled Sacramento area and ended up in the Pacific Northwest because they feared for their lives. But I guess Christopher hasn't heard this one.
It is true that Gary just doesn't have the "charm" of Bill Clinton, or the media adoration. I kept thinking as I was watching the interview with Connie that he just wasn't able to pull it off like Elvis, I mean Clinton did.

Clindidit BUMP

I cannot, for the life of me, understand how hillary rodbutt clinton can stand to be linked thru marriage to a man she knows very well has hurt, my gosh, RAPED other women.
Just a guess on the psychology: Hillary loved bill. He hurt her terribly (humiliation, lost interest in her physically and emotionally.) Now he messes around and sometimes even rapes other women.

I suggest that hillary feels
1) that those sluts deserved it for scr*wing him when they know he's married to her and
2)he "still cares" about her because he doesn't RAPE HER. Sick and sad.

[185JHP]

There's two kinds of Southern males. The Clinton kind learn to act like the good kind - fake bonhomie and caring about other people. Condit somehow didn't learn to fake it as well as Clinton. I also believe Condit's wife lacks the vile Borgia-like ability to scheme and plot, and delight in infamy - enjoying trampling on the concepts of decency - if you like doing something, you're going to be better at it. Condit's guile didn't get recharged at home like Clinton's did - "cherchez la femme", and Condit's didn't produce for him.

[The Raven]

>>Yet in my book on Mr. Clinton I was able to cite three educated and respectable women who.. were able to give convincing and alarmingly similar evidence of having been physically assaulted and then raped by him

Wow...I'm behind the times ....THREE???

the blowsy, gray-haired frump from Arkansas, whose gross appetites and manners were often held to be part of his charm.

I'd love to read that book if this is a taste of the contents, but I refuse to line the pockets of the cretin who called (Saint) Mother Teresa a fraud.
