Hillary Clinton... women's rights.?

Question

When women (and quite a number of them) made claims of sexual misconduct towards President Clinton, Hillary refered to them as "Bimbo Eruptions."

While I understand she might have been conflicted in the matter, didn't she abondon her principles by not supporting these women?
How can she now say she supports other women when they make claims against other men?
Is this another example of Liberal double standards?

Answer 1

She went so far as to approach several and give them what for. Hillary Rodham Clinton is not known for her tact or language you can share in mixed company. Her principles revolve around her political gains.

Yes it is a double standard. I have been searching for my Anita Hill link for you. It's been adapted. Basically in 1998 when the women began to go public against the President (as many before did in Arkansas) Anita Hill just off her own sexual harassment suit with Justice Clarence Thomas declared in the news that although his (Clinton) Conduct may be lewd it in no way can be construed as sexual harassment.. This is after a female in the White House said no and he said yes, before Monica.

Alot of room here. And if it works for Hillary she will use it. She has lived for years with his adultery. She can not support women, but if she can she will.

Answer 2

I'm not sure if she is a feminist, as a politician her political goals have always come first and that means she has had to compromise in some areas that someone with more definite convictions may have chosen not to. However, she is a strong woman, and has shown she is able to deal with public life and as a person who moves actively and effectively in the wider world. In that respect, yes she's a good role model to say to younger women "you can achieve, but you have to work hard and there are consequences which are not always what you might imagine". I'm not sure if she's a good role model for women 'everywhere', because outside the US things are managed differently. For example, in Australia political candidates don't go through the lengthy process Obama and Clinton have just endured, so things are very different. Regarding her marriage, etc, her personal life is her own business, but there is no doubt she has raised a fine daughter who is a successful person in her own right, and also that she has close family ties with her family. Cheers :-)

Answer 3

Give me a break. This was her friggin Husband! Had the Con's not been so upset with him having sex with a woman, impeachment never would have occurred and it wouldn't have cost the taxpayers money and Hillary wouldn't have said "bimbo eruptions." Nice try to back up your Liberal Double Standards comment. Actually, yours is an example of how Con's waste tax payer money in large sums at a time.

Answer 4

Hillary Clinton must support the concerns of women so that she will be voted as the first woman President.

VOTE for your choice as US President on my 360 degrees blog and know if Hillary will likely win.

Answer 5

Bill clinton

Answer 6

In the case of Bill's indiscretions, you have to separate Hillary, the ticked off wife, from HIllary the politician. She can never reconcile the situations. One was personal, but her overall view can still be pro woman.

Answer 7

those actuation's women made against President Clinton have no evidence and were never prov-en, its just hear-say dreamed up by the vast right wing political spin machine

Answer 8

Newt Gingrich was cheating on his SECOND wife while he was trying to impeach Clinton for lying about an affair. His answer to this lapse of moral values is that "at least I didn't LIE about it". Go ahead Repugs...SIN, but don't lie about it and the Lord will welcome you religious wackos with open arms.

Answer 9

Yes, to the highest degree.

Answer 10

Your answer - in your question. (she might have been conflicted in the matter)
