Hillary Clinton: Bill Clinton's extramarital affair with Monica Lewinsky wasn't an abuse of power
Washington Examiner ^ | October 14, 2018 | Naomi Lim

Posted on 10/14/2018 12:13:55 PM PDT by kevcol

Hillary Clinton doesn't believe former President Bill Clinton's 1990s extramarital affair with then-White House intern Monica Lewinsky constituted an abuse of power.

"No. No," Hillary Clinton said during an interview with "CBS Sunday Morning" when asked directly whether her husband took advantage of his position in 1995 to instigate sexual relations with Lewinsky when she was 22 years old.

I don't think it was either. A lot of women are attracted to older, powerful men. If I remember right, Monica had a history of such behavior and made the 1st move.

Now, Clinton is still a pig and there are several other times that his behavior fit the abuse of power description.

What Hillary needs to answer for is HER treatment of all the women who were victimized by her husband.

The thing is though that Monica told a friend she was going to ‘go to Washington to get her Presidential kneepads’.

Hillary is somewhat right on this one.

Monica Lewinski was not a co-worker.

Monica Lewinsky was a paid whore on the payroll to service the President

That look you get when you discover that the woman you raped has been invited to the debate by Donald Trump.

that anyone would give money to these scam artists to hear them speak ?

"Hearing them speak" is not why they give money.

Lewinsky, now 45, described the dynamic she shared with Bill Clinton as "an inappropriate abuse of authority, station, and privilege"

She had the privilege of having breasts, with which she abused the president and forced his big head to stop working.

I agree with Camille Paglia. It was definitely an abuse of power even if she went to DC with that intent:

It was frat house stuff! And Monica got nothing out of it. [...] She never got the perks of being a mistress; she was there solely to service him. And her life was completely destroyed by the publicity that followed. The Clintons are responsible for the destruction of Monica Lewinsky! They probably hoped that she would just go on and have a job, get married, have children, and disappear, but instead she’s like this walking ghoul.

Monica’s lucky she isn’t dead. ......Or otherwise totally permanently destroyed as a crazed stalker slut (which was the Kankles plan).

Had it not been for a stain on a blue Gap dress, Kankles would have seen to it that Monica was utterly destroyed. Bill the Rapist would have skated, and the complicit Rat Party and Rat media would have rewritten history. They would have covered up for the most prolific sexual predator who ever inhabited the Oval Office.

I have never understood those who bring a “it takes two to tango” attitude to the scandal of Clinton and a young intern. He was the most powerful man in the world. She was a star-struck groupie who was a lowly intern in the White House. She was in her early 20’s and Clinton was more than old enough to be her father. He was the Commander in Chief at a time when a Captain having an affair with a similar aged subordinate was cause for a court martial.

Yes, she is a female and he was a male, but there is simply no rational way to equivocate their standing in the world, in maturity, or in her ability to make an informed decision and his to put himself above the office and every person he led as President.

He was wrong beyond belief and at the very least, every American should be thoroughly disgusted at what he did in the Oval Office. He is a deviant and any person who lived that knows how wedded the left is to power because they bent themselves into pretzels to defend him at every turn.

I still feel sorry for her to this day......... she came across as a teenage girl in the midst of a high school drama. He was a President. Given what we know today - how many more “interns” were there?

If President Trump only accomplished that one thing, I’d still praise him as a great man. He saved our bacon bigly. And even though Obama was a pig, he did also do that in 2008. I would have liked to have been a fly on the wall to hear all the lovely things she said about Obama. Snicker. Bet the sentiments toward him were all very magnanimous. ;)

Her mentality was very much that of a messed up teenage girl. Her age of 22 meant nothing.
