Monica Lewinsky gooooooooooooooafuggingway!
When I was 20 I too made choices and I was responsible for every single one of them.
Since you didn't ask your parents permission to get down below his desk, I don't know how he owed your parents an apology. You are an adult at 20.
Many older men approached me (as they do all young women) but I never saw a single politician (or anyone else for that matter) as some superior being who could make me do what I didn't want to do.
Indeed I usually responded in a way that made them avoid me big time. I simply threatened to tell everyone including media folks and their wives.
Fuck off Monica - enough already!!
= new reply since forum marked as read
would be the only reason not to send one's dress to the laundry
She became obsessed with him like she had previously been with her drama teacher. Of course he was an idiot for getting involved with her in the first place.
She kept trying to get to Clinton through his private secretary, Betty Currie. That's around the time that he sent her out of the WH. In her new post she started confiding on another person who was no longer in the WH either and was pissed off about it, Linda Tripp. Monica would spew her tales of woe and Tripp would record their conversations.
Oh what a tangled web we weave...........
and very few didn't make advances.
I simply never played games with them - never made suggestions and certainly never showed any of them my thongs (well I've never owned one of those anyway). We make choices - I said no and never put myself in a situation where they could take advantage of me. Most men back off the minute you respond to overtures by asking them how they'd feel if their wife knew what they were suggesting?
Those very public photos of Monica speak volumes - she sure looks terrified -NOT.
Which sane woman without an agenda doesn't have her dress washed or dry cleaned but preserves it and trips all over herself for ReTHUGs.
Fuck Monica Lewinsky!!! She's crawling out for another paycheck.
How do we know that, thanks to the soft porn publication know as the Starr Report.
And she was involved in an ENORMOUS scandal and her face was on every front page. FWIW, I think, frankly, it's ASININE to warn people about a PEOPLE MAGAZINE cover of a young woman in tacky 1980s swimwear, but we've got some people here who get agitated and personally affronted if that doesn't happen, so...there ya go.
And she's in public life, too, still. She's involved in the "anti-pornography" movement (having to do with internet safety for children, apparently). And, from all appearances, on "the other side" (I would assume that means she's a Republican!).
But I'll bet plenty couldn't name her on a bet, if shown a pic of her today, or back then.
I'll bet most people can't name "The Argentine Firecracker" either. She was a young lady who ended up in the Tidal Basin with Wilbur Mills, the aged and horny Chairman of the Ways and Means Committee (a position that some call the most powerful one in the land--first I look at the purse, after all). FWIW, her (stage) name was Fanne Foxe. She was a businesswoman, too--she made her living as a stripper and a paramour.
That's old Wilbur (No Fool Like An Old Fool) on the left. He was a gentleman, anyway-the drunkard leapt into the Tidal Basin to 'save' Ms. Foxe.
When the scandal blew, old Wilbur doubled down and resisted pressure to leave Congress--he even came on stage with her when she was working the old Pilgrim Theater in Boston!
That's old Wilbur on the left, again.
It took forever for Wilbur to be convinced to shuffle off to obscurity, but he did, and Fanne did so as well in short order (to her homeland) after writing a book.
Ms. Lewinsky has had nearly two decades to reinvent herself--it's curious that all she STILL wants to do is talk about "that." Yes, it was a tough thing to overcome, all that notoriety, but I get the sense she hasn't even tried. She went over to London where people CARE about it less, but she hasn't gone to any effort to associate herself with any sort of industry, purpose, goal, etc. She went to school for a bit and made an HBO film about ... THAT. She co-authored a book about ... THAT. She sold handbags for a bit, but it was obvious she was trading on her notorious reputation and that fizzled out when her cachet faded. Now she's back doing a photo spread and essay for Vanity Fair about ... THAT.
I think her story is one that is over. If she wants to be remembered for one thing, she's doing a "Heckuva job." She has had, and continues to have, a few years to change her reality, but that window is closing and faster than she thinks. As the years pass, options get fewer. Middle age turns into old age quick as a wink, and reinvention gets harder when you're old. She needs to get serious, or resign herself to having her one "accomplishment" chiseled on her gravestone.
Sorry, folks. This girl figured out early that it was okay to sleep her way to the top. She was a CONSENTING ADULT and IMNSHO the kind of girl my grandma always characterized as "no better than she should be." Not that that excuses Clinton, but this goes both ways.
Go away, Monica. Your 15 minutes were up LONG ago. 
or if she dry cleaned the blue dress
After all, if it wasn't for them, I might have completed college in 4 years and done architecture instead of engineering.
I don't condone Bill's behavior. He was older, the president and should have definitely known better. On the other hand, I have no use for women who pursue married men. Bill was not her first affair with a married guy. By her own admission she pursued him, not the other way around. Therefore, she was responsible for her actions. This was not a case of a dirty old man chasing a naïve girl and forced her to do something against her will, quite the contrary.
You play with fire, you get burned.
who defended Clinton's actions in the Lewinsky affair. I wasn't one of them.
As POTUS you have ONE JOB and you have sex in the Oval Office with an intern who is half your age? You didn't have other things to do, like being POTUS? Or the fact that you are married?
Clinton's actions were shameful, and, not for one second, would 99.99% of those defending him at the time would have defended him if he had had an affair with a male intern, or if Clinton had been a Repub.
Hypocrisy, thy name is all of you who still defend Clinton in the Lewinsky affair.
yes INDEED 
?701
I didn't have to wear them much; I was mostly in dress blues
with the following question
When you were 20--22, did you show your boss your thongs?? I'm betting that the Nos will be in the high 90s
