I tried to think about a better title for this thread, but none come to mind.

And to think some Americans still think Clinton was an embarassment (over his affair with Monica, that is)...

 

[evkl]

newt gingrich was having an extramarital affair while prosecuting clinton for having an ext--er, lying under oa--er, having an extramarital affair.

You mean there's such a thing as a federal (US) politician who never had an extramarital affair?

 

[the gadfly]

Congressman Barney Frank comes to mind. Of course, he's gay and couldn't have an extramarital affair under current law.

Anyone who has an affair is an embarrassment, and you really don't see me backing Newt either.

Actually, Sawyer, OUTSIDE the States everyone was laughing at the *republicans* for their silly obsession with Clinton's sex life.

That Clinton had an affair didn't faze many people. Most of our politicians do, too :-D

Do not get me started on WHY Clinton was an embarrasment. It has little to do with his sexual life. He was an embarrasment for the way he ran the country. Sure, Clinton likes to take credit for all the economic growth of the 90's, but it had NOTHING to do with him.

IMO, the affair was something that should have stayed between Clinton, Hillary, and Monica. The public had no business knowing about it. It's like the Anna Nicole thing- it was hardly news. Presidents/politicians have had affairs since they even existed.

But wow, LOL about that guy from Israel.

Seems we have a flip-flopper among us.

Ah no, Clinton was an embarrassment for having an affair, but he also is an embarrassment to America cause he was such an idiot. His wife is even worse.

So was Clinton an embarassment because he had an affair, (#1), NOT because of his sexual life (#2) and because of BOTH his sexual life and something else (#3)?

Flip. Flop. Flip. Flop.

Stop making things up. Clinton was an embarrasment because of his affair yes, but not JUST because of his affair. Is that simple enough for you to comprehend? I don't flip flop, saying otherwise is a lie.

Well, just because it has LITTLE to do with his sexual life, doesnt mean it has NOTHING to do with his sexual life. Last time I checked, LITTLE did not mean NOTHING. So in a sense, his sexual life was an embarrasment, yes, but it isnt the only reason as to why he was an embarrassment, in fact, I'd say it is only 8%. Its little yes, but still existant.

Haha.... yeah, pretty hilarious, it's been all over the media here. I probably would have called the thread the same thing.

 

[Snake Bandage]

Ahahahah. I knew about that before the media did. My mom works in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and she worked with the guy... she said she wasn't surprised when she heard about that.

Now I'm just waiting if the foreign media will get anything about the guy who was supposed to be our representative in Vatican City until the police found out he was harassing a coworker he had a dispute with on the phone. Or the couple they caught having sex in a boardroom.

If you want drama, the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs is there to deliver it!
