Rupert Murdoch Has A List Of Bill's "Indiscretions"?
Last night on Real Time With Bill Maher, Richard Belzer stated that Murdoch has been compiling a list with the names of women Bill Clinton has slept with and will release it to cause a furor if and when Hillary becomes the dem nominee. So how will all the HRC supporters here feel when THEIR candidate helps put John McCain or Mitt Romney in the White House?

1. First of all, Belzer said it was a RUMOR
He was very careful not to state it as fact, just something he had heard. He's a comedian--I wouldn't take what he said at face value. Secondly, those are Bill's indiscretions, not Hillary's. I don't think too many intelligent people are going to hold HIS indiscretions against her.

3. It may actually help her...there is sympathy for the woman....

who has been wronged. Besides, Bill Clinton was three times as popular as Bush while his indiscretions were being documented and broadcast daily.

15. There is always the chance that most Americans don't want to be deluged
for another 8 years with Bill's indiscretions being played out on the evening news 24/7. Been there, done that.

6. So, Murdoch's NYTimes endorses Hillary only to trash her against McCain when the time comes?

8. Murdoch's NYTimes?!! He owns the Post, not NYT! Quite different, still.
The "mainstream" paper he recently bought was WSJ.

14. One thing I can guarantee you
it WON'T be a democrat, regardless of who it is-I'm pretty sure they were all for Rudy Giuliani-that dream is about to end-I suspect Romney or Huckleberry-McCain only if they have to

13. only about 45% of the people
that vote-they have this thing called the Christian Coalition and these are the same people that helped put Bush in the WH-you know along with voter fraud. At this point there are a lot of them expected to just stay home in November but get that hornets nest riled up and we will most likely have toi ewndure another 4 or 8 years of whackjobs like McCain singing "bomb bomb bom, bomb bomb Iran"-Go Edwards

17. All we need is Bill Clinton on tv again saying
"I didn't sleep with that woman". Grow up, and YES some people do care about fidelity; something you obviously don't know anything about.

21. whether it's true or not doesn't matter, WJC has a history of affairs
and then lying and/or triangulating about it. The perception or insinuation that he's still a womanizer, after all these years, will be enough to cause yet another media feeding frenzy. You know, blue dresses and cigars and stuff? I still hold Bill Clinton directly responsible for Al Gore not being president right now. It should never have been close enough to steal.

23. of course...but the Clintonites assume that anyone who doesn't
want the Clintons anywhere near the Oval Office again is a "rightwinger". That's just not true.

10. I'm sure all the RW trash periodicals will have files of
Clinton indiscretions both true and outright lies. I only hope Larry Flynt has an equally damning dossier on the Republican candidates if it comes down to this kind of mud slinging politics.

16. And I suppose it comes with a list of affidavits and sworn statements
Edited on Sat Jan-26-08 04:52 PM by Canuckistanian
I could put a list together of "all the women who slept with Romney".

Without corroborating evidence, it's meaningless.

And I'll bet the women on that list MIGHT have a few things to say about being added to that list.

26. Not you..... If I'm not mistaken, Canuckistanian is Canadian,
Edited on Sat Jan-26-08 06:44 PM by Tarheel_Dem
and if you ask me he should be more concerned with the Bush clone currently heading up his own government. Or perhaps he/she is a Harper supporter who knows that there won't be much of a difference between a Clinton administration and what we currently have.

GO EDWARDS!!!!!!!!!:woohoo:
