Ex-Clinton lover loses bid to revive lawsuit

[stevedeshazer]

SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - A former lover of U.S. President Bill Clinton on Monday lost her effort to revive a defamation case against his wife, Sen. Hillary Clinton, and two of the former president's top aides.

Former cabaret singer Gennifer Flowers came to public attention during the 1992 presidential campaign when she described a 12-year affair with Clinton, who later acknowledged a relationship with her.

Flowers charged that during the 1992 campaign Hillary Clinton had helped coordinate campaign attacks against her. Flowers also said Carville and Stephanopoulos made defamatory statements about her.

Flowers had said in the suit that Hillary Clinton, Carville and Stephanopoulos falsely accused her of lying about the affair and of doctoring tape recordings of her telephone conversations with Bill Clinton.
==============================================================================================================================
And the hunting of the (former) President continues.

1. I wish we could turn back the clock

to when this was the biggest news of the day.

[KittyWampus]

3. To Drudge, Chris Matthews and the GOP it still IS!

:puke:

[KittyWampus]

2. she had tape recordings of her conversations with Clinton? Gee, whenever

I'm seeing someone I make a point of taping our conversations. :sarcasm:

[raysr]

12. Set-up

I think now and have always thought that Monica was a Puke plant. They knew what Clinton's weakness was and exploited it.

[SoFlaJet]

17. me too ray

I don't trust them and put this kind of thing in the "yea they would do it" box

[Josh]

18. Then why didn't they bring it out before the '96 election?

I think it was just a case of Monica being sold out by people she thought were her friends, who taped her phone calls. I doubt it ever would have come out otherwise. At least not while Clinton was president.

[Yupster]

25. well he sure

played right into their hands then.

34. Whatever Happened To... Gennifer Flowers

... When she .. was asked what she'd do if Clinton ever called her again ... she cracked that if he ever called her again, she'd just about break her neck running for the tape machine. Well, now you can hear answering machine recordings of conversations between Flowers and Clinton for yourself .. because Flowers is selling them from her Web site ...

yet another Republican heroine leaps from the pages of Penthouse to brag about her wiretapping escapades ...

4. Ex-Clinton lover! Nice Headline ... not too biased, huh? nt

[stevedeshazer]

15. Yeah, that really jumps out

News that's fifteen years old trumps the criminals of today. Damned liberal media. :grr:

[LibDemAlways]

26. There is no depth too low for the media

whores. They'd bend over backwards to sanitize a repuke in a similar situation. The headline would read "Golddigging former aquaintance of....."

[bluestateguy]

5. Good. Now make her pay Clinton's legal bills.

[Proud2BAmurkin]

6. haha..sad wench

7. "Former cabaret singer" or "ex-Clinton lover"--which is it?

I guess the one that brings in the money...

[mitchum]

35. Calling her a "singer" is being very charitable

[xchrom]

8. must be out of money.

[acmavm]

9. Two things. 1) Why is your frigging page so wide???? and 2) Gennifer

needs to go crawl into a hole with Paula and quit annoying the rest of us.

[stevedeshazer]

16. My page looks normal to me, I''m not sure what you're seeing

Assuming you're referring to my original post.

And yes, Gennifer is officially ancient history as of today.

[0007]

19. That a good question. I went so far right I was getting nervous,

then I decided to use the arrow key. I did work up an appetite.

[kwyjibo]

22. 1) ================ =====================

that's why!

[Moochy]

29. yeah its non-breakable non-whitespace...

I love helping on the META stuff. :D

[Vickers]

10. "A former lover of U.S. President Bill Clinton" Kicked to the curb, baby!

:spank::spank::spank::spank::spank::spank::spank::spank::spank::spank:

11. Note to Gennifer: Your 15 minutes of fame (notoriety) are over. n/t

[Raster]

37. "please let me sue him again, pleeeeezeee.... this time I won't blow

the dough."

MEMO TO GENNIFER FLOWERS: Go Away.

[mcscajun]

13. "Former cabaret singer" Gennifer Flowers - in short, she's done.

On the scrap heap...no phony celebrity left...no money, either.

[dusmcj]

14. a loyal republican gal

her T**t is used in patriotic service to the nation, her heart belongs to the GOP. Where do they find these broads ? The stereotype of trailer park trollops has some truth to it ? Bumpin' it for the American Way ? Gawd.

[anotherdrew]

20. the Clintons are as dirty as any rethug, who cares?

It's all just a show for people foolish enough to care.

[Minstrel Boy]

21. Know who she's married to?

The Ballad of Finis Shelnutt"

[mitchum]

38. Jesus Krist! Finis Shellnut...that's a name straight out of Flannery...

O' Connor :)

[Sanity Claws]

23. What a pathetic creature!

So many years later and still the only focus in her life is Bill Clinton. Lady, move on. You have wasted years of your life while allowing yourself to be manipulated by the Repugs.

[tinfoilinfor2005]

24. Hey, if I'd had an affair with Bill,

I'd still be bragging about it too...:evilgrin:

[creeksneakers2]

27. She's the lowest of the low

She has an affair with the husband and then sues the wife? If I was the wife I'd want to kill her. Especially since she had zero evidence against Hillary. Just Larry Klayman and his discovery motions. Then Flowers loses and still has the nerve to appeal. What a bitch!

[CBHagman]

28. That's almost as good as Paula Jones trying to...

...get her reputation back :eyes: by helpfully announcing to the world that she was the Paula referred to by David Brock and that therefore she needed to sue Clinton. :eyes:

I sincerely hope the door does not strike them in the buttocks as they depart.

[OzarkDem]

30. Get a job, girlfriend

Time to start making an honest living, mmmkay?

[wordpix]

31. Get over it, Gennifer, it's what you get messin with a married man- Bill

Clinton, no less

[notadmblnd]

32. Isn't she married to that rich guy with the funny name

in New Orleans that started the rumors of violence after the hurricane? If thats the case, she doesn't need the money anyhow.

[wordpix]

33. could be repukes trying to fry Clinton again to turn nation from their $$

corruption investigations. Maybe they've put Gennifer on GOP payroll via some non-profit scheme.

[mitchum]

36. Gennifer, don't you have to take your clothes off again?

I particularly enjoyed the shot in the bath.
