Facing Contempt Threat, Clintons Refuse to Testify in Epstein Inquiry

'Well, I'm shocked'... said no one. Who actually expected the Clintons to show up?

NYT reporting. (Behind paywall, sorry.)
Excerpts: “Jeffrey Epstein visited the White House 17 times while Bill Clinton was president,” Mr. Comer said on Tuesday, speaking to reporters after holding Mr. Clinton’s scheduled deposition with a chair left empty to call attention to the former president’s absence. He added: “No one’s accusing Bill Clinton of anything, any wrongdoing. We just have questions.”

But hours before the deadline, the Clintons made clear that they had no intention of presenting themselves on Capitol Hill to be questioned by Mr. Comer and members of his committee. They did so by submitting an eight-page legal letter laying out why they considered the subpoenas “invalid and legally unenforceable,” then followed up with a scorching missive that they signed jointly, promising to fight Mr. Comer on the issue for as long as it took."

A sign of obvious guilt. Perhaps the House will hand it to the very overworked DOJ.
 
Of course, they're guilty. And make no mistake about it, Hillary is no less of a perv than ol' Slick Willy. I mean, didn't it ever occur to you where she was while he was gettin' busy with other women?

I actually don't give her any thought at all. Back during the Monica Lewinski episode I realized that Hillary's ambition has no bounds, and Bill was simply along for the ride (so to speak).

If you read the stuff written by Hillary's staff members form Arkansas, you can see what a really terrible person she is. Bill was the smarts and the looks, but she was the ruthless drive, and would go to any lengths to get what she wanted. It makes the murder allegations surrounding her completely plausible. They didn't really have a marriage; it was more of a political partnership. That is why Monica and others didn't bother Hillary. She wasn't interested in sex with Bill unless there was a positive political outcome, like Chelsea. According to her staff, she had had multiple abortions in Arkansas but an advisor told her it would look good if she were a mother, so she let one pregnancy go to term, not to be a parent but to gain political points.

Don't believe everything that you read.

I think Hillary is the one with the intelligence. Slick Willy is the one with the charisma. He can charm the pants off of any woman. He charmed voters the same way. But he would never have gotten far without Hillary's help. His brains are below his beltline.

I think Hillary loved him passionately enough to forgive him his whores. Maybe still does. Despite what she said about " Stand by your man."
 
I have to admit, I was a HUGE Bill Clinton supporter. I voted for him twice and wasn't bothered by his moral foibles in the least. He had so much charisma and the country seemed to thrive while he was in office.

And as most of you know, I actually voted for Hillary in 2016. 1768435362791.gif That was mostly a vote against Trump, because I felt he was highly unqualified and a loud-mouthed buffoon. I still think that about Trump as a person, but he has managed to keep his promises as president which is all that matters when all is said and done.

Bill Clinton wanted to be liked, and he tended to follow the polls closely, at least the internal polls. That is why he consented to the balanced budget and a number of things like deporting illegals. I don't think I voted for him though. I was taken in by his "Education Summit", thinking he was interested in education of our kids. He was really just interested in the votes of the teacher's unions and nothing more. That was the end for me. Besides, once I realized some years ago that the Democrats expect their voters to be stupid, I am very reluctant to put myself in that class of people.
