Quotation worth remembering

Older than dirt
Today, I was reminded of a pertinent quote from the late Barbra Bush:

“Clinton lied. A man might forget where he parks or where he lives, but he never forgets oral sex, no matter how bad it is.”

They say there is no one of the age of consciousness who doesn't remember where they were when they first heard that JFK had been killed.

Well there is in fact at least one, Richard Nixon. He and been in Dallas that morning. Over the years he had told three different versions of the story. One had him still in Dallas, another had him on the flight out, and another had him on the ground at his destination.

There's a difference between legal and colloquial definitions. Given the definition of sexual relations that the judge allowed, Clinton didn't lie. The American justice system is a shit show circus.

I find it disturbing that Barbara Bush knew so much about how much men like blow jobs.

Barbara Bush obviously never met Gawker. On any given night, Gawker might still find 8 dancers (who have rendered him orally ecstatic) at his favorite club. On the other hand, there would be at least 2 dancer on any given visit that he's completely forgotten about. The good news is that they remember!

Clinton lied in his deposition. Left wingers are to honesty as feces is to fine dining.

No question Clinton lied, problem is these types of guys always think they’re the smartest person in the room, and don’t get the fact that there are other smart people out there, unfortunately. That question that was asked should never have been answered, his answer was the wrong one, the answer to the question that got him in trouble should have been a simple, none of your business, would never have saved him and our country the problems that he and he alone caused.
Unfortunately this I’m the smartest guy in the room syndrome is not limited to Clinton, Trump is also afflicted with the same disease, these guys always get taken down in the end.

“I find it disturbing that Barbara Bush knew so much about how much men like blow jobs.”

I know you probably just meant it as a joke, so this isn’t really directed at you, but it always amuses me when people are surprised that their elders know all about sex. :)

And I’ve see pictures of Barbara Bush when she was younger. I wouldn’t call her stunningly gorgeous, but she pretty damned attractive. You can still see it in her facial structure in later pics.

And their daughter is no ugly stepsister either.

25,

By this, "... these guys always get taken down in the end.", are you saying that clinton is about to get his due and be "taken down", perhaps with his wife?

Being married to Hillary I suggest we all give Bill a pass........and in my mind he probably has been taken down by Hillary multiple times..........

It depends on what the meaning of the word ‘is’ is.”

I always thought this was the poster phrase for double speak until 10 years later I heard this one:

there's no there there

I’m not a fan of the Clintons. They are entirely concerned with personal gain, and have no concern for the good of the country.

As I remember it - Hillary blamed a vast right wing conspiracy - rather than making a public statement saying her husband was a liar and a cheater.

She was a very sore loser in the presidential election, and it’s obvious she believes only her narrative of her loss. She would rather blame James Comey - or Anthony Weeeener (who I’m convinced posts here - lol) than accept the facts.

I’m wondering if she will run again - most likely against the wishes of her party. I doubt she will fare better - but her ambition is beyond reason.

I’m still wondering if Chelsea will be the next one to make a run for office? She must feel entitled - she most likely believes in her mother - and she might be just as crazy too!

Very few 70-yr-old women are attractive, and I would make the same comment about Hillary in her youth. For example, this one:

... and despite what you think of her politics or motives, she did go to the best law school in the US and she's probably pretty bright. All-in-all I can see what Bill Clinton saw in her.

The election came down to 50,000 votes and Comey's behavior so close to the election may have played a role.

Typical goofiness and misogyny from some of the geezers on TUSCL.

I'm admitting ignorance here.

Hillary claims Comey's actions (among other things) cost her the election. Didn't he say that there WASN'T evidence that she did anything criminal?

How did that hurt her?

skibum, Clinton got fined for lying. But its a very slippery slope. The definition of sex in court cases comes down to one person's body parts having contact with another's, and you know the parts are listed. If Clinton claims Lewinsky put her mouth on his penis, then she had sex with him. He technically didn't have sex with her unless he admits that he placed his penis in her mouth. As for your comment regarding him being a leftist. You have your political spectrum skewed. The last liberal president the US had was Nixon.

Are you claiming that our Kenyan born president was not liberal?????

There was no Kenyan born president. If you're making a right wing nut job reference to Obama, then no, he wasn't liberal. Democrats haven't been liberal since abandoning the New Deal ideals...and when a run of the mill Democrat like Bernie espouses them, people claim he's a socialist. This country has moved too far to the right.

No, just stating the facts. Also, you do realize that being born to an American, regardless of where someone is born, makes them an American. The whole Obama not being American bs is the dumbest shit ever.

Bernie says he's a democratic socialist. He can say whatever he wants. Truth is he's just a pre Clinton era Democrat. Mondale and Dukakis were more liberal than him for example.
