Did Barbara say Clinton saw Bush Sr. like a father? Maybe it’s like son, like father. As if I feel some need to defend the Bushes not. As for her, she deleted the post, whatever. Fairly indifferent on this. Thanks Bush 41 for your service in World War II.

Touching your butt from a wheelchair constitutes sexual assault?

To me, it reads a bit like maybe he put her hand on her in the photo op; you know, down there. She also claims he made some sort of dirty joke for whatever that might be.

So she participated involuntarily with a dirty old man getting a cheap and rather harmless (he touched me) thrill.

As I have been warning lately, to all men and boys, you can no longer flirt at all, ever. Anything that is in anyway demonstrating any form of physical appreciation of the female gender can and may come back as an incident of “sexual abuse”. Your actions don’t need to involve anything physical, contact wise. You just dare not ever any more appreciate a female, any female, for any reason other than her mind. Any thing else may be dangerous to your legal status.

I can’t believe Joe “Creeper” Biden has gotten away with the outrageous serial leching he does to women and children.

Oh, I forgot. He’s a Demoncrat. He’s immune.

Well, for some reason, GHWB apologized on this. That part doesn’t look good if you did nothing.

Sexual Assault is not the same as rape.

Rape involves the penis.

Reading the apology, it may be, via the Bush spokesperson, it may be for telling the dirty joke, so maybe they don’t deny this part and others may have heard it.

Still, why tell a dirty joke at some sort of event like this?

Who knew that Bush could teach Bubba a thing or two in this arena.

Duh, idiot.

This lady is a freak show. An old man in a wheelchair with his wife next to him makes a pass at her and she has no clue how to handle it?

“Why Mr. President, you do to me that one more time and I will hand you over to your wife!”, as she winks to Barbara and steps away.

What a charmless witch this young dumb dumb is.

Touching from behind? It makes a big difference what form this touching took. Pinching a girls butt is very different than tapping her on the shoulder...but both are touching her from behind.

The accusation came after a number of women, including A-listers Angelina Jolie and Gwyneth Paltrow, came forward with sexual harassment and assault claims against Harvey Weinstein.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Trying to get on the #metoo bandwagon & the best she could do to come up with a name someone would recognize, is a 91 year old in a wheelchair .... bonus points for being a Republican. Pathetic .... and that's being kind.

You are as charmless as that stupid witch (spelled with a “b”) is. I would describe you as arrogant and boringly so.

Why should she submit to sexual assault from an old man in a wheel chair standing next to his wife?

If anyone here is a charmless witch, it’s the perv buddy of Bill Clinton in the wheel chair thinking he can get away with it.

And you’re helping him.

It’s really quite startling to see so many people defend him and attack her simply on the basis of who he is.

It’s also starling to see people doing this without even knowing what sexual assault actually is or what constitutes it.

If he did what she said, it’s a felony, and I think his handsome wife would do just about the same thing you are doing, and that is help him get away with it.

"...what a charmless witch..."


Exactly. Agree 100%.
She could “evade” the “threat” by simply taking two steps towards the hors d'oeuvres table.

And let the threat remain for his next victim?

You realize you are talking about Bill Clinton’s best friend here?

It’s amazing how many people are so quick to excuse him and attack her.

Shocking even.

I have been sexually assaulted. A man in a wheelchair with his wife next to him ain't assault of any kind.
