Please answer honestly, if Obama received a bj from an intern, lied under oath and was impeached...
...but not convicted. Or if Michelle Obama were caught in a similar situation would the Clinton camp and/or surrogates leave it alone?

Let me state I don't think Obama or his surrogates should make it an issue, but when I saw the video of Chelsea Clinton responding to the question it made me wonder if the shoe were on the other foot if the Clinton camp would be as restrained.

1. Hell no they wouldn't. Obama is damn decent for not even mentioning the Clinton scandals.
The GOP will not be as considerate.

2. Well Obama understands he is running in a Democratic primary and he doesn't believe . . .
. . .in doing shit to Hillary under the excuse of "that is what the GOP would have done."

37. Is Monica Lewinsky fact, or Sniper Fire? I think it's documented
Amercian history, actually. Unlike the Sniper Fire. How come no one's allowed to bring it up? Is it so shameful that it can't be mentioned?

5. We'll never get past that blowjob...
...the single MOST expensive blowjob in U.S. history.

The blowjob that opened the door for George W. Bush to tell the nation of his plan to "restore dignity to the White House."

14. I can not imagine
him going there. The only critique he has made of Senator Clinton is on policy. And in rebuttal to the barrage of shit that has come his way. He goes out there in state after state, talking to people, getting their votes and racking up the delegates, while the Clinton's play dirty tricks with the 'media', and fast and loose with the rules.

Come on folks...Iraq will blow up again...we are not done yet. Let's focus, let's think on who the enemies are at home to better understand what to do about the enemies abroad.

Anybody, and I mean anybody, but McCain in November.

. . .of the tactics that the Clinton campaign is using and pointing out that if Obama had a public skeleton like that Hillary would have gone after him on that.

11. Americans know these were Bill's sins, not Hillary's; you've conflated the two into an evil cartoon
There are a lot of cheated and forgiven spouses out there.

It's not what life deals you, it's how you handle it.

19. Just like the Clintons are trying to conflate Obama with Wright, Farrakhan, and Jackson
And they seem to think that Obama can't forgive Wright for a couple random quotes that he just found out about after a 20-year relationship.

28. Most Americans hide the dirty laundry, and the Other Woman isn't a beloved figure
If this happened to the couple next door, is this how you'd describe them?

This is real life, on your block and probably the block you grew up on.

It's really common, but usually couples hide this truth and don't tell the neighbors. Even if they're in the White House.

40. I agree but America gets to peak inside Obama's church and...
...and when Hillary had a chance to respect Obama's relationship with his pastor who Obama criticized, Hillary exploited the situation for political gain. I would think her marriage should be off limits but maybe not.

44. Is it Obama's Church, or someplace he chooses to go?
A relationship with a chosen pastor is hardly as intimate. That's about associations and ideas, legitimate vetting for a newcomer.

. . . a serial adulterer? I seriously have no problem with Hillary staying with Bill BUT I do take issue with the hypocrisy that Hillary's marriage is off limits but barack's pastor isn't.

25. The only "sin", as far as I'm concerned, is Hillary's arrogant, sleazy campaign.
Oh, and her vote for the IWR.

And her refusal to own up to it being a clusterfuck of a mistake.

22. Let's put it this way: If I had a daughter who was offered an internship for the White House, under
a Clinton administration, I would tell my daughter, HELL NO. It's hard for me to believe that Obama or the msm has not made an issue out of this.

It was bad enough of what Bill did, but then later on he states the reason he did it was beacause "I could".

I have to be very blunt about this. There is something fucking fundamentaly wrong with both Hillary and Bill. PERIOD.

This is reality, and women make their own choices. All you can do is try to give them some judgment about men, not try to protect her from them.

while a few Obama people tried it to use it against her for a day or so it went away and most did not use it. certainly not the campaign.

but if it was Obama the Hillary people would still be using it against him.
