With the shooting down of a very qualified judge named Priscilla Owens, the party of the RATS had taken partisanship to a new level of low. How did we get here?
The answer is very clear -- we got here because of William Jefferson Blythe Clinton, impreached former president.
Like many of you, I used to have Democratic friends. We got along. We were able to have civil arguments. Clinton changed all that. I only have few left, and they really don't have my respect.
Some of us saw it coming fairly early, but it really crystalized after the OKC bombing. Clinton was being called almost irrelevant, even by some in the major news media. After OKC, however, he blatantly seized on a cynical plan to divide us even further. He and his evil wife created the so-called Vast Right Wing Conspiracy.
The Clintons forced people to choose sides. You had to stay with him no matter what or the dreaded right wing would do awful things to this country. They would starve children. They would throw old people in the street where they would be forced to eat dog food. They would poison the air and water. They would end Social Security.
The RATS dug in their heels and stood by him no matter what. They excused perjury. They excused taking 900K from Bernie Scwartz who escaped being indicted for selling our missile technology. They excused subornation of perjury. They excused creating a hostile work environment in which sexual favors were rewarded. They excused hiding documents under subpoena. They accepted a dead body and a raid on his office to remove documents.
And they accepted sexual assault. Yes, they accepted the rape of Juanita Broaddrick. They would listen to nothing because they already had too much invested. They couldn't turn back. It is like a kid who starts lying and the lie gets more and more complicated and serious. He just can't tell the truth and let the whole thing unravel.
Who was to blame? It was the dreaded right wing. If we got Clinton, there is no telling what we would do.
Well, Clinton made it through 8 long, long, excruciating painful years. He got to keep his job and he paid only a small price. He was disbarred and fined. So what. He makes millions on speeches.
If Clinton actually cared about this country, he would do something to end the partisan hatred that is like nothing modern America has ever seen.
If Clinton had any character left, he would admit what he has done. Among other things, he would offer an apology to Juanita Broaddrick for brutally raping her and he would seek serious psychiatric help. His RAT minions would certainly forgive him because, after all, he was sick and it wasn't his fault.
What the admission would do is end some of the bitterness and some of the partisanship. The RATS could no longer keep putting out the lies that the VRWC was out to get their guy. McAuliffe would try to spin it, but after the admission he would finally be thrown out into the street.
Americans everywhere would realize that the political hatred was caused by Clinton. It would mean a generation of bad times for the RAT party. And there is the rub. Clinton can never admit the truth because his pals would lose power. They would be unable to sustain the lies. They would be unable the demonize the right wing.
Maybe on his deathbed Clinton will have a change of heart. Maybe he will admit what he did to Eileen Wellstone, to the young woman at Yale, to the unnamed woman during his first term as Governor, to Paula Jones, to Kathleen Willey, and to Juanita Broaddrick. Maybe he will ask God and the victims for forgiveness.
Maybe pigs will fly.
Sir, I suggest that you not place any bets that you can't afford to lose on that.
Alleged rape. Too bad she never reported it to the authorities, huh?
im-preached is what he needed to hear. But that's right he went to church every Sunday carryng the biggest Bible he could find, until it was over. Ain't seen that Bible since
And will forever remain nothing more an unsubstantiated allegation.....
Amen. The story of the 'hood in a nutshell.
If Clinton had any character left. . .
Two very big "if's".
We can only hope, can't we?
The man is psychotically (and criminally) ill, and needs to be shut down immediately.
