They are showing on of their "Final Report" shows, this one was about Clinton and the Monica scandal. It is quite funny to see the old video of Republicans harping about wanting justice to be done and accountability to be held when it was Bill Clinton. Yet they run like cockroaches from the light, when anyone talks about Justice and Accountability now with this administration.
Such freaking hypocrites.. it's sad really that this is what our country had become.

What's amazing is that you think that the Democrats are, as a whole, any more honest, honorable or interested in the greater good. To compare one group but not the other to roaches seems to be a bit near-sighted. To think that one group would take an opportunity to undermine the other, and assume that the other wouldn't do the same is, well, sort of childish.

Just let us know when the naked Polynesian girls come on. :D

Nuch, probably the most intelligent thing you've posted since changing your handle.

I never personally cared much about Clinton abusing women and his position for that purpose. What makes me despise him the most is selling our military secrets to China for campaign contributions. Seems neither Republicans nor Democrats trust politicians and therefore the government whereby which they weild their corrupted power. You would think that both parties would want the politicans to have less power resulting in smaller government wouldn't you? Doesn't that seem logical?

The problem is, neither party actually wants a smaller govt. Hell just last week a new bill was passed that gives the govt the ability to access even more info on you. All in the name of protecting you from evil terrorists..

My biggest problem with the whole Monica issue was that it effectively took the public spotlight off of what appeared to be far more egregious cases of sexual harrassment and abuse of power. It became the fodder of late night talk show hosts, who turned it into a humorous national joke instead of the despicable behavior it was. And once we as a country started laughing about it, it somehow became acceptable.
To me, it simply underlined an obvious double standard. The rest of us in the corporate world are constantly assaulted with "compliance training", everything from sexual harrassment, to diversity training, in an insulting attempt to make us more sensitive, as if we'd all be raised by wolves without the benefit of parents or role models. We find ourselves constantly being "re-educated" without having ever behaved inappropriately in the first place, while our supposed leaders behave like Caligula with apparent impunity.

I think the general public saw it for what it was, a middle aged man getting some strange. The general public didn't want the matter drug on as long as it was. The only reason it happened was because Kenneth Star drug it on because he had an agenda to nail Clinton.

I respect running more than perjury ....it's the washington way.
btw.........what ever happened to that black House Member, William "cold-cash" Jefferson... who had 100K stashed away in his freezer? is he in jail yet?
Jefferson was videotaped accepting $100,000 in $100 bills from a Northern Virginia investor who was wearing an FBI wire, according to a search warrant affidavit. A few days later, on Aug. 3, 2005, FBI agents raided Jefferson's home in Northeast Washington and found $90,000 of the cash in the freezer, in $10,000 increments wrapped in aluminum foil and stuffed inside frozen-food containers. The money was said to have been "fresh and still crisp" due to the containers.

"The $90,000 was the FBI's money. The FBI gave it to me as part of its plan — part of their plan — that I would give it to the Nigerian vice president, but I did not do that. When all the facts are understood, I trust that I will be vindicated."

Well, that was not the only noteworthy aspects of BIll's presidency, besides lying under oath (which is a punishable crime) there was the stream of revelations, legal suits, and investigations related to his extramarital affairs both alleged and admitted and to his involvement in deceptive real estate schemes in Arkansas before he arrived at the white house. But let's just remember the good things about Bill, shall we? More Kool-aid my dear?

Such as buying NY votes for his wife's senate run with questionable last minute pardons of FALN members?
