Fair enough - your opinions, and your vote, are certainly your own, but to cast Hillary as some sort of victim, and an enabler, simply because of what was exposed, I think is short-sighted.

However, when one willingly becomes a public figure, then one has to accept that one's private life is also going to come under scrutiny.

(Unless they choose to tell us; Bill and Hillary chose not to tell us what went on between them with regard to the Monica affair. And good for them; it's none of our damn business.) We cannot know what contingencies, agreements, understandings, conditions, promises, etc., etc., are operative in a given marriage (ESPECIALLY when it's one we see only from a distance through the media). It is the absolute height of arrogant stupidity to declare that he or she or they should have done this, that, or the other thing in connection with a marital problem. It's fine to say, "If I were Hillary, I would have done thus-and-so." (Although obviously you don't really know what you would have done given that you don't know what it's like to be married to Bill.) But for all we know, it could have been Bill who was the doormat in this situation. Think about it. If you don't see how that might have been the case, you have a very limited imagination, not to mention knowledge of human beings. (Caveat for the brainlessly literal-minded: I'm not saying I think that WAS the case, just that it could have been. It could have been a lot of other things too. We simply do not know enough to have an opinion.) Share spewed: > MJ, IMO, that's where Hillary should have drawn the line with regards to his > womanizing.

Long overdue IMO. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <fairfieldlife@yahoogroups.com> wrote: Why would Hillary divorce him over that? He had already had numerous affairs after he became governor in Arkansas - you don't understand the motivation of such a person - its better to have a philandering husband who is President than a faithful one who is a nobody.
