Ok it is Drudge but there is a pic. Will this be the next press diversion?

1. If so, might it backfire?
"Those were the good old days, when all we had to worry about what was an affair.."

43. Downright quaint, isn't it?
Seven years ago, I believe it was. Seven years it took this country to go from "Prez has an affair" to "terrorist attack, unjustified war, and torture."

Jeez.

Drudge heard Clinton had been getting cozy with a Bush ... and well, you know how things get misconstrued.

33. Regarding the photo, he's probably giving that women a kiss on the cheek.
If Bill Clinton were having an affair, the last thing he'd do is kiss the woman on the lips when there is a crowd around.

8. He's a private citizen now. Who gives a shit?
Edited on Sun Jun-19-05 10:14 PM by BattyDem

You know ... they must really be desperate! Bush's poll numbers are dropping fast, so they come up with yet another Clinton "scandal" to dominate the news. :eyes:

Of course, whether it's true or not, it doesn't matter. They'll find some way to use it against Hillary, even though she's the "victim". If questioned about it, I wish she would simply say, "I don't see how my marriage is any of your business. If there's a problem, I'll take care of it in my own way. Perhaps your time would be better spent investigating pResident Bush and the lies he told in order to start a war." :evilgrin:

29. I'm pissed at her and every other Dem who voted for the war ...
but that's not the issue. There's a book saying her husband raped her and now there's another story saying he's cheating on her. What does that have to do with her ability as a Senator or as a candidate in '08?

By the way ... as angry as I am at the Dems for not investigating Bush's claims before voting for the war, it still doesn't change the fact that Bush is the one who lied to Congress and to the country. I'm not going to confuse the issue by lumping their actions together; one is laziness and/or fear of political backlash - the other is criminal and treasonous.

JMHO

17. I didn't even give a shit when he WASN'T a private citizen
and he really WAS having an affair.

And if that pic linked below is the same as what's on Drudge, well, :rofl:. That's all I have to say. Just laughing. How desperate are they?

41. It's probably the angle. It was a kiss on the cheek.
And we also don't see the full view of the original picture. Remember the one where Drudge had Clinton talking to some college athlete where you could see only the two of them? The original picture had several other people in it.

46. Even if it was Clinton...
Do you think he would be stupid enough to kiss a woman he was having an affair with in public.

It is possible that she kissed him and he didn't back away, but there is no way in hell this is an affair.

I am not a big Clinton fan, but I know he is not an idiot. He would never make an affair so public, he knows what happens when he gets caught in that type of situation.

Klein nor Drudge tells you that if Clinton is smooching his secret paramour, he's doing it in front of hundreds at a Kerry rally last fall :eyes:

Here's another shot of the same scene:

56. Glad you found this pic because I had the...
same impression you did. With the K/E hat - had to be either a rally or Bill's book signing moments. In other words lots of people around.
Common sense would tell anyone with Bill's heart surgery, he hasn't felt like fooling around lately!

I hope this lady and Hillary sue their pants off. She has threatened and I sincerely hope she follows through. Stop them in their tracks, I've already read both books have been proven to be filled with lies.

23. Well you know they need
a distraction at this point and they will drag up anything they can find. I posted another story from the site where they are trying to discredit the DSM. It is beginning and it is going to be ugly I think. I had not stopped in at Drudge in ages and am glad I did. Always glad to be forewarned at what the tactics will be. Know your enemy so to speak. Still, I find it discouraging. They will stop at nothing.

31. I think when you
post things like this though (general you not necessarily YOU) it gives them a bit of legitimacy, as if they are worth discussing and sites like drudge aren't. He's a liar, he's been proven to be a liar several times over.

What happened to the days when a proven liar was just not listened to and shunned?

35. I understand where you are coming from but
the fact remains that he gets a lot of traffic and a lot of people believe what is on his site. I want to be aware of what will be the right wing talking points and have a rebuttal handy. Forewarned is forearmed. I don't hesitate to post here because most here have a brain and they use it unlike a lot of right wingers I know.

50. Yes, the "librul" media will pick right up on it..."
Just as you said, but in MY opinion that's deinitely NOT Clinton. You can't see his face at all, nor that of his alleged paramour.

Proof positive, Drudge? Stick with your fond memories of 1996.

Take a tip from journalism past:

Irrefutablilty coupled with integrity.

You once had the former, but NEVER exemplified the latter.

It's not too late.

All men, especially REALLY famous men who are married to REALLY famous women, french kiss their girlfriends in a crowd of people. That Bill, he's one sneaky mofo!

Sometimes, famous men just walk hand in hand with their adulterous love interests through a field of bluebonnets after kissing them oh-so-gently a few times:

Edited on Mon Jun-20-05 03:36 AM by anitar1
his health was poor, then had the bypass surgery plus having another surgery. One does not dance a jig for quite awhile after having a bypass. Takes a few months to fully recover. In fact , I have felt rather alarmed at his appearance lately. He definately needs more rest. So let's have dates on these affairs. Also, who cares ??

57. Bill Clinton the iron man of infidelity
Bill cheating on Hillary--whoa stop the presses.

Even if it is true, and if this is all the evidence they've got it's pretty lame, If I was in that position I'd kiss the guy too.

Besides who in the world cares except for Hillary and maybe Chelsea.

60. Thank You Stephen Day!!! The Drudge song
from Buzzflash and Stephen Day's Last Chance Democracy Cafe

As a brief aside, here’s a little song I wrote about the major media’s Clinton “scandal” obsession back when it was happening. Let’s all sing it together:

The rumor bone’s connected to the Drudge bone,
the Drudge bone’s connected to the Rush bone,
the Rush bone’s connected to the Fox bone,
the Fox bone’s connected to the NY Post bone,
the NY Post’s bone’s connected to the pundit bone,
the pundit bone’s connected to the major media bone.
Now hear the word of the Lord.
