When President Bill Clinton was busted for having oral sex with an intern in the Oval Office, liberals and the mainstream media were mostly okay with it. Remember the comments like these,
printed in the San Francisco Chronicle in 1998?
“We all know the President has done a great job.”
“Call off the vultures.”
“I don’t care if the president is sleeping with a cow!”
“Whether the president had an affair or affairs, whether while president or prior to his becoming president, is of concern only to him and to his family.”
“Before we become obsessed with the legal aspects of the case, we should examine the politics of it, starting with the principles, agendas, motives and supporters of Mr. Starr and the Misses Lewinsky, Tripp and Goldberg. What a gang!”
“Should Clinton be removed from office? No, definitely not!”
“Under his leadership the United States has become strong economically and respectable all over the world.”
“No, President Clinton should not be removed from office. He is entitled to his own personal life and it is not interfering with his job.”
“Who cares about who Clinton is or was sleeping with? I am interested in letting Clinton do the job he was hired to do.”
To this day, Bill Clinton is worshiped by the left, and most Americans either forgot or never knew the details of his impeachment hearings, the rape allegations, and the admitted affairs. The Lewinsky debacle is common knowledge, but still Clinton is acceptable to liberals, because “he’s our guy.”
