Frogs, blood water, locusts, boils ..... and the Cheney family


Lynne Cheney, wife of former Vice President Dick Cheney, suggested the Clintons are behind Monica Lewinsky's new essay in Vanity Fair.

Lewinsky is speaking out for the first time in years about her affair with former President Bill Clinton and the internet fallout that followed in the latest issue of the magazine, which will be available digitally on May 8 and on newsstands May 13. She credited her decision to come forward after years of silence to Tyler Clementi, an 18-year-old who committed suicide after video of him kissing another man was broadcast online.

But Cheney suggested former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, a potential 2016 presidential contender, could be behind the essay.

"I really wonder if this isn't an effort on the Clintons' part to get that story out of the way," Cheney said during an interview with Fox News' Laura Ingraham, who guest-hosted "The O'Reilly Factor" Tuesday night.

wonders like a "bundy-brainiac"...

And I still wonder who actually paid ML to "perform" her dirty deed back then...? Seems to me there was a concerted effort to do away with the "special council" thingy back then which paved the way for the B&C regime to do what they did unimpeded because the public was "soured" on that process so it was easy to do away with it.

Just sayin'...
