No, that is a pretty far out conspiracy thingy. But there is a body count of affairs and sexual misconduct left in his wake.

Shit, % of the people in this room got their job because a friend recommended them.

lt's against the law to get your friend a job? Shit, she blew him for a couple of months.
The least he could do is give her a recommendation! lt's the least he could do.

See, people...everybody expects this holy behavior
'cause he's the President. Expect him to behave this holy way.

He's just the President. He ain't Rev. Clinton. lt ain't Pastor Clinton. lt ain't Maharajah Clinton.

lt is just Bill Clinton. He's just a man. A man's gonna be a man.

A man is basically as faithful as his options. That's how faithful a man is, no more, no less.

You see all these fat Republican guys going: l would never do such a thing. This is a travesty.

l'm like, ''Nobody's trying to blow you.''

Ain't no 21-year-old girls trying to blow Orrin Hatch.

Ain't nobody trying to give Newt Gingrich some.

l don't give a fuck, you ain't never gonna hear Newt Gingrich go: Man, l wish these hoes
would back up off me. l wish they would just back the fuck up off me.

Clinton didn't get a complete pass. He was impeached.

And found not guilty. Impeachment is the process. He was eventually disbarred but not for any sexual misconduct, but for perjury. His perv behavior was never questioned, only his lie under oath. He got a major pass. And as evidenced by of the people who want to through Cain under the bus but still think Clinton was great. Hypocrisy.

That's my whole point. The "perv" behaviour is not the problem. It's the lies about the behaviour that are the problem.

Good, so they are equal. If Clinton can come out smelling like a rose, so can Cain.

"It was Clinton's fault":right:

Attention!

George W Bush moment.

Do you all remember how former President Bush used to pronounce "nuclear" "new-kyoo-ler"? I got so tired of hearing him show his ignorance this way. It got to the point that when he said that I heard "I'm an idiot".

I feel the same way about mercy's reflexive thoughtless repetition of this slur, and your other pejoratives.

Ok, rant over. Carry on.

People please!

Herman Cain is getting a free pass on his utter lack of a clue in foreign policy. To run for the Presidency and not know what is going on in Libya is rather inexcusable. When you run for the Presidency it is for the sake of the nation, not to improve your standing in it.

Clinton got a free pass from the American public, not from the media, Congress, or the prosecuting team. Once the public has all the details, but gives you a free pass anyway, it's over. There's no use bitching about it.

And while the masses are generally ignorant, they do sense what is going on; that Clinton was an utter womanizer, but was not using it as an excuse, while the prosecution was charging him with this during the investigation of a completely unrelated matter upon which he was later found innocent.

It was like, they have gone after him with all weapons on hand, so now we know the very worst of him, and it merely makes him human.

It's also an understanding of what makes leadership; you can be a womanizer and have affairs and still be President, but what you can't do is show weakness. Clinton's finger-jab was a bitter pill for his political enemies, but he was sure never to be a deer in the headlights.

Wut UT said.

glatt 12-02-2011 12:26 PM

I can't argue with any of that.

classicman 12-02-2011 01:49 PM

I agree with UT's post as well.

I wanna take this in another direction. WHY is anyone fighting for Cain when he clearly isn't fit to lead? Thats what puzzles me the most.
