Now, wait a second Ann, I agree with you up to you last sentence. Are you saying Hillary was entitled to take her hurt out on those who accused Bill of rape and sexual harassment? To head a task force to attempt to discredit them?
I hope that is not what you are saying. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <awoelflebater@...> wrote : You don't think she gave her husband holy hell for what he did? I can guarantee that behind closed doors she punished him and probably to this day has never let him forget how much he hurt her, humiliated himself and her and generally made their personal, not to mention their political, life a living hell. Anyone who is being truthful will admit that when a spouse or a life partner betrays you with another man or woman all hell breaks loose. You seek to punish your partner and you seek to punish their sexual partner. Bill certainly paid for his transgressions and I will say that many of the women he had sexual contact with were more than willing. To blame Hillary for taking her hurt out on those who betrayed her is being too critical. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <olliesedwuz@...> wrote : I am more than willing to address the candidates' issues, in a balanced way. On the one hand is an oaf who, for starters, refuses to release his tax returns. Refuses to, after every major candidate in the last 40 years has done it. Many just shrug and say, 'oh that's Trump, just being Trump'. Same with him suggesting Hillary could be shot, same with his dangerous flip flops on major policy issues, and utter lack of interest or experience in public service, 'oh he will surround himself with good people'. Same with his admissions of sexual assault, 'oh, its just locker room banter'. On the other hand, Clinton's entire *life* is somehow seen as a legal deposition, with every 'i' dotted and 't' crossed, held up to the strictest legal and moral scrutiny. What a bunch of bullshit, Steve. Not much more to add. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <steve.sundur@...> wrote : Ollie, why is it that so many here lack the integrity to address uncomfortable issues, such as Hillary pillorying of BIll Clinton's accusers. My question is clearly directed at this and her response of dealing with it when it got in the way of political expediency. I am not sure how you can work to discredit the claims of these women at the same time declaring yourself to be a champion of women's rights. Can you? Now to repeat what Bharitu said, we are not electing a saint, so I get what she did. Just acknowledge it, if you can, and then move on. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <olliesedwuz@...> wrote : Hillary Clinton is not a rapist - Donald is.

Let's stay focused and compare candidate to candidate. Frankly I am amazed that any man or woman could ever excuse or qualify Trump's words, once again.

So mention Monica Lewinsky but leave out the woman Bill Clinton actually raped, not to mention the accusations of groping by numerous others, and the veracity of these claims challenged by Hillary. And this is the candidate who claims to be a champion of women's rights? This is political expediency and nothing more. Have the intestinal fortitude to call it for what it is.

That's just an exceptionally lame--and supremely hypocritical--attempt to defend the indefensible. This, as I've already said, is about Trump boasting of his right as a celebrity to commit *criminal sexual assault* any time he wants and get away with it. Bill Clinton's affair with Monica was consensual. She didn't sue him for sexual harassment (let alone sexual assault) because she wouldn't have had a chance of winning. In most states in this country, kissing someone or grabbing their genitals for sexual gratification without their consent is a crime subject to jail time. And nobody's cutting Clinton any slack for his philandering. But Clinton's sins have nothing whatsoever to do with this. Trump's is a whole other order of misbehavior toward women. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <no_re...@yahoogroups.com> wrote : Since you brought up the subject of men's locker room banter, you and some Democrats cut Bill Clinton and lot of slack when he didn't get sued by Monica for sexual harassment in the work place. He should have been fired and put in jail for being a sexual predator and lying to the American people and Congress. Any normal person would acknowledge the crimes against women Bill has committed and be honest about what happened, but for some reason you just can't seem to be normal and honest. Politics as usual, I guess. Go figure. Your post has got to be one of the most hypocritical messages on this forum that I've ever read. Bill Clinton made the office of the U.S. Presidency the laughing stock of the entire planet! ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <authfriend@...> wrote : Now, boys, as you are very well aware, nobody is talking about saints or church ladies. We're talking about the difference between normal if imperfect human beings, and an aggressive sexual predator who brags that his celebrity gives him the right to commit criminal sexual assault whenever he feels like it.
