During the Clinton Administration. Then they gave us Shrub.

I'm more inclined to think "restoring honor" is code speak for "electing Republicans" not so much "removing Obama". I think they would be pulling the same crap if HRC had won.

2. Well you have to admit there is no honor in what happened between Bill and Monica.
On the other hand that is sooooo old.

4. I agree, but I'd rather have a president who got a BJ than one who started two wars.
The only reason bush became president was because of that damned BJ.

5. That is why the BJ wasn't just a consensual thing. It may have been legal but it was not right

8. the sad part of it is this
Presidents have done things like that before Clinton and it didn't reflect their governing abilities. Clinton did more good than bad as a President and certainly was better than Reagan and the Bushs. When we realize that focus should be on the governing not the personal life we might start getting progress.

11. Tell that to Tiger Woods.
Sometimes messing up your personal life has a bad effect on other things.

16. Its the getting caught in the public eye that kills ya.
If only Hillary found out about the incident, Bill would have been fine.

3. i think you are right, but the fact that he is black gives them a whole separate
arsenal regarding racism. if HRC were president maybe it would be anti female stuff... how women have pms and can't drive bs.

6. How can they restore something they never had
There is not now nor has there ever been any Honor among Republicans. If Honor has been stolen from America it was by the Republicans through their use of Torture and Corruption and not through a STUPID blowjob..

7. Basically. To Republicans, every Democratic President is illegitimate
or elected in a "protest election". It's only a matter of time, then, until a "proper" Republican is elected again. They feel like they have an absolute right to the office.

9. "restoring dignity and honor" = "We're going to start rigging elections"....
"And we'll do it in the name of God"

17. Of course it is. Beck said it wasn't political, but one of the first things he said
in his interview with Chris Wallace yesterday was we have 40 days and 40 nights to work toward making things right. He was talking about the election, so of course it's political.
