[<http://images.villagevoice.com/x.gif>] Clinton's Message to Women
[<http://images.villagevoice.com/z.gif>] Kathleen Willey: "How are your
children? Don't you get the message?" () 'Clinton ripped [Jane Doe No.
5's] clothes and bit her lip' [<http://images.villagevoice.com/x.gif>]
Participating in December's Emergency Speakout Against Impeachment at NYU
were some of this area's prominent intellectuals and moral
philosophers—among them, Arthur Schlesigner Jr., Toni Morrison, Eli Wiesel,
Gloria Steinem, and Jerold Nadler who, alas, is my congressman. There were
spiraling cries of "sexual McCarthyism" and "coup d'état!"
And in the January 10 New York Times, Gerold Lefcourt, a Clinton advocate,
states baldly that Clinton's defense witnesses have been intimidated. Let's
see who has been intimidated.
Lefcourt, a prominent attorney, ignores the series of women who have been
threatened by Clinton and his agents to keep their silence about his
exercising his droit du seigneur on their bodies.
It is this relentless obstruction of justice that I began to detail last
week. Also on the list of Clinton's throwaway women who should have been
placed in the federal Witness Protection Program is Elizabeth Ward Gracen,
Arkansas's former Miss America, who had a brief bout of intimacy with
Clinton in 1983. During the 1992 presidential campaign she received calls
to keep quiet about it—or else.
But just in case she faltered—as the Wall Street Journal Europe (October
27, 1998)
reported—her agent met with Clinton buddy Harry Tomason and Clinton advisor
Mickey Kantor and "worked out some kind of deal." She would deny any
relationship with Clinton and her career would benefit.
She obeyed, but when she was subpoenaed in the Paula Jones case, the
threatening calls resumed. She has told The Toronto Sun, according to The
Washington Times: "I think Clinton is a very dangerous manipulative man.
There was a lot of pressure on my family and friends, people who were being
staked out."
Moving on, the Wall Street Journal Europe reveals the post–60 Minutes
ordeal of Kathleen Willey.
Two days before she was scheduled to testify in the Paula Jones case, "A
man in a jogging suit approached her while she was out for a walk near her
Virginia home. He asked about a missing family pet [her cat]. The jogger
mentioned Willey's children by name. 'Don't you get the message?' he asked
her."
Dolly Kyle Browning, another former Clinton bonbon, and now a Texas real
estate attorney, has filed a defamation suit against William Jefferson
Clinton and, among his retainers, Bruce Lindsey.
In her court papers, Browning tells of an extramarital sexual relationship
with Clinton from the mid 1970s to "sometime before January 1992," when
Clinton was eyeing the prize of the presidency.
In January of that year, The Star, a tabloid weekly, was about to print a
story about that idyll. Browning refused to be interviewed, but Clinton was
taking no chances.
In her complaint in the lawsuit, she says that her own brother, Walter
Kyle, acting on behalf of—or at the direction of—Clinton, warned her that
"if you cooperate with the media, we will destroy you." At the time, her
solicitous brother was working in the Clinton campaign in New Hampshire.
Two years later, according to the court papers, she and Clinton made a
deal—using Clinton's confidential aide, Bruce Lindsey, as an intermediary.
She would not tell the truth about their relationship if he promised not to
tell any lies about her.
But when Browning decided to write a romance novel, a roman à clef about
their intimacy, and word got out in Publishers Weekly, Clinton "acting
individually and through various agents... conspired to prevent the
publication of her manuscript." (Browning court papers.)
The conspiracy involved "threatening and intimidating Mrs. Browning and
potential publishers... and defaming Mrs. Browning."
In a March 6, 1998, affidavit, Browning testified that she and her former
lover met in the summer of 1994 at their 30th high school reunion in Hot
Springs, Arkansas.
"I reminded Billy," Browning said in the affidavit, "that he had threatened
to destroy me and he said he was sorry." She was pleased to get, at last,
his apology.
Then there is Linda Tripp. The Wall Street Journal Europe reports: "Mrs.
Tripp says that Bruce Lindsey told her she would be 'destroyed' if she went
public with criticism of the White House. Mr. Lindsey's lawyer denies this
was a threat. However, Monica Lewinsky, conveying what Ms. Tripp took to be
a message from the White House, told Tripp that she had 'two children to
think about' and that talking to the press was 'a dangerous thing to do.'"
Juanita Broaddrick is another woman whom feminists Gloria Steinem, Patricia
Ireland, and Betty Friedan have somehow forgotten to tell us about. Lisa
Myers, who has broken a number of stories for NBC, reported on March 28,
1998, that Paula Jones's lawyer had filed court papers saying that Clinton,
in 1978, while attorney general of Arkansas, had "forcibly raped and
assaulted" Broaddrick in a Little Rock hotel room, and then "bribed and
intimidated her" to keep that indelible experience to herself.
Myers added: "NBC News has talked to four people from Arkansas who say
Broaddrick told them of such an assault years ago." According to one
source, Clinton "ripped her clothes and bit her lip."
The White House says that Broaddrick has denied under oath that she was
ever raped by Clinton, but the story will not die. On CNBC's Hardball,
Chris Matthews asked Congresswoman Tillie Fowler (Republican, Florida), if
members of the Republican caucus were willing to read material (in files
not open to the public) that accuses the president of rape almost 20 years
ago. And, Matthews added, "they have got some documentation." (The
reference was to Jane Doe No. 5, Juanita Broaddrick.)
Broaddrick's lawyer, Bill Walters, says, "We're not confirming or denying
anything."
According to The Starr Report, when Broaddrick was interviewed by FBI
investigators, she admitted that her affidavit denying the rape was false.
(See page 58, Jane Doe No. 5, footnote 203.)
