Nah. Sorry, Lewghazi, dear, but your humiliation was driven by the blueghazi dressghazi and your idiotic decision to slob the Frist Knob of The United States, which led to the GOPghazi politicizing the fuckghazi out of your poor self control.
Oh, and one more word: CIGARGHAZI.
I hope she pulls in a nice pile of cash. She deserves it.
My âGlobal Humiliation Was Driven By The Internetâ
It was? I thought it driven by the Hummer.
Look. "Hail to the Chiefâ does not mean what you think it does.
Victimhood. Itâs all the rage.
How much is Herr Karl paying her, I wonder?
What about the Professor and the other men?
Agreed. She did a massively stupid thing in choosing to get involved with a married man who also happened to be POTUS. It was stupid but it hardly rises to the level of scorn that was heaped on her, particularly by the right wing who simultaneously villainized, slut-shamed, and infantilized her.
Did. She. Actually. Put. All. Those. Periods. Between. Her. Spoken. Words. Or. Did. The. Writer. Put. Those. There. To. Make. Some. Kind. Of. Point?
Curious that sheâs now coming out with her tale of woe after all these years, donât ya think? Couldnât be that Hillary is possibly making a bid to run for PresidentâŚNoooooooo, couldnât be! Lewinsky was a victim at the time, but sheâs used her infamy on several occasions since those days to allow herself to be put on the perpetual victim list as a tool for a rightwing smear campaign against the Clintons. AndâŚsheâs made a boatload of money off it. Next will be reading articles about Linda Tripp. Mark my words.
And she has kept mostly silent for all these years, never written a Tell-All or attempted to turn her notoriety into punditry or reality TV gigs.
And today weâll watch TPMers slut shame, villainize and infantilize her. Just scroll up or down.
I would much rather have a President getting blow jobs from a staffer than blowing things up around the world./
Too bad the internet wasnât around during FDR and Kennedyâs days, huh?
No maâam âŚyour behavior with a sitting President is what messed you up. Not the media. Take. responsibility. for. your. self. Blaming other for YOUR faults isnât fooling anyone.
The verdict has already been rendered. The American people didnât give a shit over what happened. He went on to leave office with one of the highest approval ratings of any US President in modern history.
The press was amazingly complicit in keeping their personas intact for the public and their secrets out of the public eye.
Really I see some questioning of motives of why now and I see some pointing out that the shaming started when she spoke about it in the first place, which was certainly her choice and right to do. But no slut shaming, turning her into a villain or infantilizing. However do I think she is being a bit silly in complaining now? Yes. What the hell did she think would happen, especially in DC, when the tryst with Bill became public by her own doing.
How did Lewinski make âa boatful of money off itâ? Iâm curious.
Timing = Suspect

So wait you donât think she turned her minor celebrity into a way to help her make money? Please donât misconstrue this a condemnation. But to seriously think that she didnât turn what happened to opportunity is really naive.
Linda Tripp - the perfect face for radio.
