Why are some Republicans STILL making about big deal about Clinton's sex life?

Question

Come on! He's been out of office for nearly 6 years! Get over it, already! And it's not as if he sent thousands off to die in a war that was based on a lie.

jdc6733:How can you say that his "BJ with the pig was never brought up"? The only reason why we know about it was because it was brought up over and over and over again, thanks largely to Kenneth Starr.

CindyL: Who's the one who's unable to lead? Bush has taken Clinton's surplus and given us a record deficit. Also, the outgoing Clinton administration warned the incoming Bush administration about bin Laden. By the way, where the hell is Osama bin Laden? It's been nearly 5 YEARS since the 9/11 attacks took place, and he STILL hasn't been caught!

By the way, I'm well aware of the fact that a lot of Democrats voted to go to war. In all fairness, I have to say that a lot of them have little or no backbone. However, the Democrats are the lesser of the two evils, and it'll be a cold day in hell before I vote Republican.

kathy059:It's not nearly as bad to be remembered for a head job and an impeachment as it is to be remembered for turning a surplus into a record deficit, starting a war that's based on a lie, and failing to capture the person responsible for attacking your country.

sunsetj2006: It's funny that you should mention Clinton's draft dodging and pot smoking. After all, Bush is a draft-dodging, alcoholic crackhead. Also, where the hell is Osama bin Laden? It was bin Laden, not Saddam Hussein, who was responsible for the 9/11 attacks.

Answer 1

well, he warned us about bin laden during those times, but all anybody wanted to hear about was his BJ. So, we got attacked. And people STILL aren't paying attention. Lemmings...

Answer 2

Because he's a dirty, dirty president. We don't really care about his sex life, all we're saying is, he's dirty, a big fat liar, draft dodger, pot smoking, womanizer. When did he even care about the country, all he wanted was the power and fame. Do you think it was a spur of the moment when terrorists attacked US? It was a plan being hatched while Clinton was in office. Why didn't he do something then? Well, I'll tell you why, he was busy getting his............ you know, piece of the Monica pie........ Now, Bush and his administration has to clean not only the stains on the rugs in the oval office, but also the mess he left. And just so you know, Republicans and our soldiers who, by the way, support the adiministration and fight for terrorism all the way, are kicking *** in Iraq so you can sleep in your bed safe at night without your apartment complex exploding into flames, we have the night watch. So sleep tight tonight, thank the Bush administration for that old Texan kick them them in the rear and ride into the sunset mentality. Ya hear?

Answer 3

He is a convenient target. Anyone that actually looks at the issue isn't concerned with his sex life, but rather with his conduct under oath while a defendant in a lawsuit. His perjury got him disbarred if you remember.

Bottom line is his conduct was no big deal, why did he lie about it? His conduct made him subject to blackmail, is that something you want from the President of the United States?

The issue isn't a hummer from an intern, it was the fact that he lied in public, and under oath while being investigated on sexual harassment charges, and while under investigation for possible sexual assault charges.

1000s to war based on a lie? Clinton told that same lie in case you forgot, he also sent 100 of troops to Bosnia with a promise they'd be home in 12 months, that was a lie because guess what we're still there.

I guess Republicans will get over Clinton's actual lies (perjury) when ignorant liberals/leftists stop falsely accusing Bush of lying.

Every Western nation reported Iraq had Wmd's from the end of the first war in 1991. Sanctions were renewed and it was Clinton that allowed Iraq to boot the weapons inspectors in 1998 with no repercussions. So until the US actually decided to go after Hussein militarily the world was fine with assuming the reports of weapons were correct. It was not until the black markets for oil, weapons and such were threatened the status quo was challenged.

When partisan Dems stop demonizing Bush just because he won the presidency twice in spite of the DNCs best efforts to steal the elections and has marginalized them. I suppose partisan Repubs will let Clinton off the hook.

Answer 4

I don't know. People bring the bj thing up every day. Who gives a crap? I like Clinton, but I don't agree with everything he did. Some of his other mistakes are worth far more attention than the Monica mistake. And yes, in the long run, what will have a bigger effect on the U.S? The war on Iraq or the bj from Lewinski?

Answer 5

it's NOT about the sex. It's about the LYING. It's about the highest tax increase for the middle class by any president. It's about the selling of nuclear secrets to the Chinese (Communists by the way) It's about the disregard and disrespect for the high office he held. It's about Bin Laden being HANDED to him on a platter and he didn't do anything. It's about the USS Cole being bombed and he did NOTHING. It's about our soldier's burned and beaten bodies being dragged through the streets in Somalia and he did NOTHING. It's about the pardons and the mess he left things in. It's about his inability to lead.

Kookoo shows his/her lack of knowledge, we WERE NOT at peace (remember the bombing of an"aspirin factory"?) We are STILL in Bosnia, and Clinton DID NOT have the approval of the UN or the world to invade Bosnia. The UN knew it was a wag the dog ploy, to distract from his impeachment AND his disbarment.
It's about the inability of liberals/democrats to see what a sorry mess Clinton was AND still is.

Answer 6

Same reason why so many Democrats bring up how "great" Clinton was. They say how much better off they were. Really? presidential politics plays any role that you are still stuck in your menial job, and that you haven't gotten a raise in six years?
I supported Clinton as our president just as I support Bush. I disagree with their "followers" and "bashers" as they give the office too much credit/ accountability for their lot in life.

For you to place sole blame on the president and not the members of congress for those deaths is really ignorant on your part. I hold every member of congress who believed Chalabi responsible for those deaths (if you recall many Democrats voted to go to war).

Answer 7

they have to try to keep focus off the bumblings of the current administration. they spend thousands upon thousands of dollars and hours of time trying to flood the Internet with anti democrat jokes, bashing, and generally false accusations hoping that it will somehow cause negative impact. actually it only helps to lower the public approval of the bush administration and shows how shallow republicans really are. i would love to see the Clinton's back in the white house! vote democratic in the upcoming elections.

Answer 8

Hellooooooooooooooooooooooo. Next election incoming, Bush cant run again, Wanna keep it in the family and have another Clinton. Hillary,
Here come the smear campaigns, already.

Answer 9

That is strange, especially if you compare two presidents, The first president initiates a bloody, costly, unending war on false premises and approves covert policies of illegal detentions, kangaroo courts, extraordinary renditions, torture and warrant less wire-tappings of thousands of Americans. The second president lies about hooking up with an intern. QUESTION - Which one should be impeached?

Answer 10

They aren't and never did. Limp wristed liberals like you still can't get it in their head that this whoremonger was impeached for lying under oath to a grand jury. His BJ with the pig was never brought up.

Can you imaginehow low his self esteem must be to associate with hogs he has? Hillary has had a whole ugly forest fall on her.

Answer 11

Because they want to take the attention away from Dubya. I personally like Clinton but think he was stupid to do what he did and think he wouldn't get caught. However, he did a really good job of running the country and his IQ was larger than his shoe size. We can't say that about Dubya.
