Clinton rape accuser blasts NBC anchor who announced her story had been "discredited"

[Meathead]

Hillary is running for president, but it's nice that a whole new generation is learning about Bill's numerous dalliances because, after all, knowledge is a good thing.

This marks the first time republicans haven't demonized a woman who accused someone of rape.

Apparently the standard liberal tactic, when confronted with an ugly truth they can't refute, is to change the subject to REPUBLICANS!!! and lie about them instead.

Can't refute? Maybe you should post some proof or evidence first.

Did you not read the op? It said the reporters said Juanita's story couldn't be refuted.

Did you not read the op? It said the reporters said Juanita's story couldn't be refuted.

And yet Juanita refuted it HERSELF, many tines by her own estimation!!!

4. During the 1992 Presidential campaign there were unfounded rumors and stories circulated that Mr. Clinton had made unwelcome sexual advances toward me in the late seventies. Newspaper and tabloid reporters hounded me and my family, seeking corroboration of these tales. I repeatedly denied the allegations and requested that my family's privacy be respected. These allegations are untrue and I had hoped that they would no longer haunt me, or cause further disruption to my family.

I saw a broadcast on CNN a few days ago, about Trump's elaboration of his reasons for calling Bill Clinton the worst sexual abuser in American political history. Juanita Broddrick was mentioned, and I was surprised to hear the announcer claim that Broaddrick's story was "discredited". Amidst barrages of screams, smears, and insults by Democrats at the time, no actual "discrediting" was ever done. Many of the reporters who worked the story at the time, have since admitted they could find very little to contradict or refute Broaddrick's account of Bill's activities.

Bill is not running for President, of course. But the story is highly relevant, since it brings up the question, where was Hillary when all of this was going on? Answer: Part of her activity was in helping to abuse, smear, intimidate, and generally bury the dozens of women who kept showing up during Bill's 1992 Presidential run. So many women kept levelling accusations against him, that the Clintons referred to them as "Bimbo Eruptions".

Fast forward to December 2015. Just a few months ago, Hillary announced that she was all for believing women who were claiming to be victims of sexual assault or rape. Broaddrick, long silent until then, reacted with astonishment. "How can she be so ignorant? Doesn’t she know we’ll all come forward again? Has she lost her mind?”

The Clintons' crimes are coming back to haunt them, as they have haunted the various women Bill harassed for twenty years.

Clinton rape accuser blasts ‘biased’ NBC anchor

Clinton rape accuser blasts 'biased' NBC anchor

Juanita Broaddrick: Network's correspondent 'Lisa Myers actually warned me about Andrea' Mitchell
Published: 1 day ago

First, GOP presumptive presidential candidate Donald Trump ripped away the “philandering husband” façade from Bill Clinton, publicly charging on Fox News’ “Hannity” on Wednesday that the former president committed “rape.”

Then, on the same day, the victim, Juanita Broaddrick, described for the first time – in a WND exclusive sit-down interview conducted in Broaddrick’s Arkansas home – exactly how the alleged 1978 sexual assault had deeply and permanently scarred her life throughout the intervening decades. And Broaddrick mentioned something else: Of all mainstream journalists, the one she spoke to recently on the phone, seeking an update from Broaddrick on the rape incident and its aftermath, was NBC’s Andrea Mitchell.

How ironic, then, when Thursday, Mitchell said on-air that Broaddrick’s rape allegation, first televised by her own network in a sensational “Dateline” segment in 1999, had been “discredited.”

“Lisa Myers actually warned me about Andrea,” Broaddrick told WND today, responding to Mitchell’s comment essentially calling her a liar.

It was Myers, NBC News’ well-respected and recently retired senior investigative correspondent, who in 1999 was so convinced of Broaddrick’s authenticity that she interviewed her for the network’s primetime story.

Indeed, Mitchell’s “discredited” claim clashes directly with Myers, who as recently as 2014 confirmed that “Nothing has come up since that story was reported that in any way undercuts what Juanita Broaddrick said.”

Here’s what Broaddrick said today in response to Mitchell’s claim:

“Nothing has changed from the detailed investigation NBC did into my story in 1999 before airing my Dateline interview with Lisa Myers,” Broaddrick said in a statement to Los Angeles attorney Candice Jackson, who conducted the in-person interview with Broaddrick for WND, having previously authored the acclaimed book, “Their Lives: The Women Targeted by the Clinton Machine.”

“And if NBC now thinks my experience has been ‘discredited,'” Broaddrick continued, “why would Andrea Mitchell call me to ask me for any new information about my encounter with Hillary after the assault? And why wouldn’t Andrea Mitchell have written her own news story explaining exactly how I’ve been discredited? Lisa Myers actually warned me about Andrea.”

Mitchell’s unprecedented media disparagement of Broaddrick’s rape accusation came in her on-air report on Trump’s “rape” reference.

“Donald Trump using that word unprompted during an interview last night with Fox News’ Sean Hannity, bringing up a discredited and long denied accusation against former President Bill Clinton dating back to 1978 when he was Arkansas attorney general.”

As the Washington Free Beacon pointed out, Mitchell “is correct to say this allegation is ‘long denied,’ but on what basis is she calling it discredited? On the contrary, Broaddrick’s allegation is arguably the most consistent and believable accusation of sexual assault made against Bill Clinton (though not, of course, the only one). For a little perspective here, note that even progressive site Vox says the allegation, ‘has not been definitively refuted.’ Vox also notes that reporter Michael Isikoff’s book contains a reference to a concession by Clinton’s lawyers that he may have had ‘consensual sex’ with Broaddrick.”

Mitchell’s comments on Trump’s “rape” reference came on the heels of a weekend New York Times story on Trump’s treatment of women headlined “Crossing the Line: How Donald Trump Behaved With Women in Private.” Since its publication, the story has been widely condemned – one could even say “discredited” – by the very women quoted by the Times’ reporters, who say their words were shamelessly twisted to fit the newspaper’s pre-ordained story line.

Trump responded to the Times story on “Hannity” by focusing on Bill Clinton’s serial sexual abuse of women.

Hannity picked up the theme: “For example, I looked at the New York Times. Are they going to interview Juanita Broaddrick? Are they going to interview Paula Jones? Are they going to interview Kathleen Willey?” Hannity asked Trump. “In one case, it’s about exposure. In another case, it’s about groping and fondling and touching against a woman’s will.”

Trump interjected, “And rape.”

“And rape,” Hannity repeated.

In “Their Lives: The Women Targeted by the Clinton Machine,” Jackson documented the failings in the White House’s denial at the time, a statement that read, “Any allegation that the president assaulted Ms. Broaddrick more than 20 years ago is absolutely false.”

Explained Jackson: “No attempt to argue that Clinton wasn’t even in Little Rock on the day in question, or that he had never been alone with her, or even that they hadn’t had sexual relations. The denial was immediately parsed by some on the press and public wary of Clinton’s overly technical, legalistic use of the English language. Broaddrick wasn’t known as ‘Ms. Broaddrick’ in 1978, some noted – at that time she was ‘Mrs. Hickey.'”

And, Jackson added, “She alleged rape, not ‘assault.'”

On Thursday, Jackson was specific: “‘Not credible’ was never a label anyone was able to throw at Juanita – not even Clinton loyalists like George Stephanopolous. ‘Discredited’ has NEVER been used against Juanita before, and it is an outrageous lie. Journalists confirmed details such as Juanita’s attendance at the nursing home event in Little Rock and the location of the hotel where she met with Clinton. Friends at the time confirmed that she told them about the assault right after it occurred. The only thing that has ever been used against Juanita is the fact that she did sign an affidavit denying she’d experienced unwanted sexual advances from Bill Clinton in the mid-1990s, in an effort to keep her name out of the Paula Jones lawsuit.

“She admitted to Ken Starr in 1998 that she’d lied in that affidavit (that rape had in fact occurred), and she has told the same consistent version of events ever since. That affidavit existed in 1999 when Juanita first told her story to the WSJ and then on NBC’s ‘Dateline’ with Lisa Myers. That affidavit simply didn’t hold up against the overwhelming evidence of the truth of her story of rape.”

And what about Hillary Clinton, who hopes to become president in a few months?

Jackson’s latest interview with Broaddrick reveals Broaddrick’s “haunting” encounter with Hillary Clinton shortly after the alleged rape:

“About two weeks after the rape, Juanita reluctantly showed up at a Clinton for Governor campaign event that she’d committed to attending prior to being assaulted. She hoped to show up briefly and leave before the Clintons arrived, but instead, Hillary Clinton spotted Juanita and walked directly up to her, grabbed her hand, looked her in the eyes and said deliberately, ‘We want to thank you for everything that you do for Bill.’ Juanita tried to step back but Hillary tightened her grip on Juanita’s hand and repeated, ‘Everything you do for Bill.’ The cold look in Hillary eyes still haunts Juanita. ‘Bill Clinton was charming and personable,’ Juanita says, ‘but Hillary never had that – she’s just cold.’ Juanita understood Hillary’s calculated ‘greeting’ as a threat to keep quiet.”

Broaddrick told Jackson she decided to speak out now because of a campaign-season comment from Hillary Clinton. “It was all because of Hillary’s tweet in December [2015] where she said we all need to ‘believe the victims of sexual assault.’ How can she be so ignorant? Doesn’t she know we’ll all come forward again? She was saying in that tweet that all of us are liars. Has she lost her mind?” she said.

Such is the idiocy of the reprehensible right: attacking Bill Clinton isn’t going to work, it’s a red herring fallacy, and it will only backfire on republicans.

Of course, conservatives have no other options, given the fact the republican agenda is devoid of merit, and republicans have nothing of value to offer the Americans people; all they have are lies and personal attacks – this thread is further evidence of that.

I know right? Usually republicans accuse the woman of being a dumb whore. I wonder what motivated them to make an exception this time?

Really? Got an example?

 

[amrchaos]

Her lawyer claimed her allegations are unfounded, I.e. no way to prove them.

By the way, you should take care in calling people rapists.

I think that is a libel suit waiting to happen.

Use the search function and search 'rape.' You'll find plenty about a war on men and about women faking rape for attention. Then look at which posters are saying it.

 

[amrchaos]

Can anyone show me a case of rape in which Bill Clinton was found guilty?

 

[SuperDemocrat]

I've heard this story back in the 90s so it has been around for a long time. A woman has accused then president clinton of raping her back in the seventies or something like that. No one can prove anything beyond that because, like so many rape cases, it is almost always her word against his and that isn't enough proof to even begin a case against a rapist.

 

[SuperDemocrat]

Can anyone show me a case of rape in which Bill Clinton was found guilty?

That doens't exist but, from what I've heard, 99% of all rape accusations are true.

 

[paulitician]

Bill Clinton's a serial rapist like Bill Cosby. They used their positions of power to lure and abuse numerous women. We'll likely never really know how many Clinton victims are out there. Most wouldn't dare come forward.

The Left MSM is so corrupt, it actually attempts to paint Clinton as the 'Victim.' That doesn't surprise me, but so many people buying into that, truly does. He's no victim, he's a despicable serial rapist. To hell with him and his wife.

Well, as usual you "read" wrong. the FBI reports that 8% of US rape accusations are false.

We'll likely never really know how many Trump victims are out there. Most wouldn't dare come forward out of fear of his habitual lawsuits, the rest have been bought off.

Yet another pathetic attack against the Clintons by some rabid obsessed impotent right winger. You've been trying this shit for 30 years and lost every single time - in the process having become a laughing stock to all but the haters and tin foil hat crowd. Just think of how many hours of your life you've wasted on these fake scandals. This all displays such a serious lack of character and integrity by those who continue with these witch hunts.

Many of the accusations against the Clintons are true. The reason many of the accusers retract their charges are simply to avoid being found dead. A few years ago a retired Secret Service agent from nearby Rock Hill, SC was being interviewed at a Charlotte TV news broadcast. He revealed that as a member of Hillary's security team his job was to go on ahead of Hillary's entourage and procure young women as Hillary's sex partners during her hotel stay. The very next night he was back in the newsroom looking nervous and shaken and retracted his statements saying he had lied. Everyone who watched those news shows knew he had been made an offer he wouldn't dare refuse. He's still alive but his life has probably been miserable since that day.
