As I remember it, Linda Tripp told her to, just in case they did something punitive to Monica for cheating with Bill. I admit my memory is hazy.

I just don’t understand why on earth you think you can know how or why Hillary stayed married. The estimates of how many marriages survive the discovery of a partner’s infidelity are as high as 75% and only as low as 35%, and it’s unlikely that many of them do so for political reasons. And you’re definitely not basing…

(who is not necessarily a monster herself and is probably only married to him for her own political gain)

I disagree with Clinton on the death penalty, however, I think that strictly limiting its use by state governments while reserving it for the most egregious federal crimes might be the only way to limit its actual use in practice without inspiring revolt and locking the southern states into a position where they’re…

If someone asks Taylor Swift tomorrow whether she thinks her nazi supporters are cool people and whether she wants their support, and she goes “well, I don’t approve of everything they do but I understand where they’re coming from and encourage them to go out and be themselves, within the confines of the law of…

She is to the left of Sanders on disability rights (Sanders wants to stop pain patients from getting medication, seriously suggest they should do yoga instead). Despite what trolls say, she supported gay marriage only a couple years after Sander changed his own vocally anti-same-sex marriage stance. But, I need to ask…

Wow, you are ignorant. There are several papers that prove the link between lack of women’s reproduction access and poverty. Here’s one to get you started. I’m going to be optimistic and believe you will read and actually make an effort to understand it:

“Instead of defending him and putting your political ambition ahead of a human being and her reputation.” Her reputation was trashed as well, why do you refuse to see that? Victim blaming comes from peoples’’ belief that women are responsible for regulating men’s sexual behavior so men DON’T HAVE TO BE. It is deeply…

Again, she does not refer to herself as a “victim”, but as a victim of bullying. The first implies assault when used in a sexual context. And an impeachment hearing isn’t exactly a slap on the wrist.

In other words, Bill refused to help Congressional Republicans destroy the reputation of a women with whom he’d had consensual sex; and his wife (assuming that your quote is accurate) reacted to her the way most women might to a woman who knowingly did her husband.

Clinton stepped aside because he won, and it was the right thing to do. But, thank you for taking something lovely and strong and terrific and attempting to make it salacious and sordid. It’s ridiculous, but there it is. She could save a baby from death, and you guys would say, “Ah, but how did it benefit her?”…

No, I meant it exactly how it was stated, and there is no victim blaming in my words: He was the much more responsible party in this consensual extramarital affair considering he was older, married, and in a position of power. That does not in any way make her an abuse victim, and women who actually have been abused…

By the Clintons, not so much.
By the Republicans? Well, they want to pretend that a consensual beej that happened 20 years ago was—and still is—the worst thng ever. So what would that make her?
What happened to Ms.Lewinsky wasn’t so much victim-blaming as collateral damage from vicious, grossly irresponsible,…

But HILLARY didn’t assault anyone, no matter what Bill is alleged to have done. So it depends how much you want to hold her husband’s actions against her. I will never want to hold her husband’s actions against her so much to want the country to fall into the hands of a dangerous, unintelligent, racist, sexist man…

If you run on a platform of moral superiority (Hillary doesn’t, she runs on a platform of being an effective politician) then, yeah, it’s kind of alienating when you act in a way that is either hypocritical (see the Superdelegates) or puts your own ambition in front of your supposed principles (see not calling out his…

he’s dismissed a lot of criticisms of misogynist behaviors among supporters and people who represent him.

i tried really really hard to support Sanders because I felt I *should* because I’m young and hip and liberal and etc etc etc...but I just never could.

Either he is trying to actively fuck over the party, or he’s completely oblivious. But while Bernie hits some superficially pleasant notes (single-payer, income inequality, etc.) you don’t have to dig too far into his rhetoric and policy to see that he’s kind of a crackpot, embracing things like alternative medicine…

Very similar to yours. I started backing away after he claimed Planned Parenthood was “the establishment.” There is a case to be made that PP is part of the Democratic Party’s special interest info structure, but that doesn’t automatically make them bad; especially not when they do such important and maligned work,…

The person who is against feminism and thinks it’s important to sunbathe her vagina?
