Old Whine in New Bottles: Reality Challenged Democrats Still in Denial

Earlier this week when discussing former President Clinton's desire to head the United Nations I suggested that if we applied the "Bolton Standard" for U.N. appointments, a serial abuser of women and a rapist would certainly not meet the standard.

I didn't think it was necessary to go through every point of Clinton's sexual misconduct through the years. It's basically a given among anyone who isn't a brainwashed Clintonite. Well, that might explain this comment from "Steve" who obviously suffers from a reality deficiency.

But just in case you're like "Steve" and still struggling with the meaning of the word "is" Read this chapter on Clinton's rape of Juanita Broadderick in the new book: Their Lives: The Women Targeted by the Clinton Machineby Candice E. Jackson.

Excerpted from that chapter, here's a comment from a feminist and liberal icon:

[F]eminist author Andrea Dworkin stated flatly, "I believe that Clinton is a rapist. I believe the woman-and if I had doubts about the woman, I trust what I perceive about him."75 She classified "what he did to Paula Jones" as assault, and from there, she said, "it’s a very clear line to rape…. Suddenly, every time you look at this man you have to think about rape. It’s harder to sleep, it’s hard to work…because this man is the president. That’s obscenity- right there."

Richard Cohen of the Washington Post (again... not part of the "vast right wing conspiracy") had this to say:

None of the rules of political gravity apply to them. They just float above everything. Take the rape charge. It is that-get it? I feel I have to emphasize it:The president of the United States is accused of raping a woman back when he was attorney general of Arkansas. An account of this alleged rape ran on Page 1 of The Washington Post. Get it? Page One! The Washington Post! Do you want to know what happened next? Nothing.

And why did nothing happen?

Michael Kelly ...Clinton’s lawyer observed,"He doesn’t really care whether thepresident is a rapist or not. He doesn’t really care, because he figures you don’t really care either-at least, not enough to do anything about it."

Now of course lefties would toss Tom Delay or ANY Republican out of office for a parking ticket. But here at Mike's America we've long been aware that standards of ethics and conduct in office were only meant to be applied to Republicans.

Dick Morris wraps the whole thing up this way:

"If you’re going to be a sexual predator, be pro�choice."

Earth to "Steve:" Time to change the oxygen tanks on whatever planet you're visiting this week....
