If were retrying Bill Clinton, lets stick to facts
Whenever charges of sexual misconduct shoot through the air, an arrow or three hit Bill Clinton. Thats inevitable, given his history of philandering capped by the notorious Oval Office tryst with Monica Lewinsky.
What was not inevitable, but surprising, is the crush of liberals swallowing whole a fishy story that Clinton raped a woman.
-snip-
The demand that any womans claim of rape be automatically believed can have tragic consequences. How many black men have been lynched on false charges of raping white women?
Make no mistake. Any charge of rape must be seriously investigated. Prosecuting sex crimes does pose a special set of difficulties. It doesnt follow, however, that the womans statement is beyond scrutiny.
We cannot know for sure whether Clinton physically attacked Broaddrick. We do know that independent counsel Ken Starr included her claims in his microscopic investigation of Clintons sexual transgressions. His report deemed the findings on the Broaddrick case to be inconclusive.
