The issue for me is mostly about whether Clinton and his supporters (handlers?) tried to pressure these women to keep quiet after they had decided to speak. If he or his office tried to silence people with threats or bribes that would deeply disturb me. Playing grab ass in the office (even the oval office) is an old game, and if both parties are willing, well you can say what is the harm. But gentleman, first and foremost, the superior officer, executive, whatever, is not supposed to take advantage of his/her subordinates. Even if they act like they want to play, how do you really know? And if they change their mind later, and decide they were taken advantage of, who is to say they weren't? Would they have let Carville grab them? Probably not, since he doesn't have "President" on his door. We gave Clinton the Presidency (actually, not me, I voted for the other guy) and we didn't give it to him so he could fondle ladies in the White House- willing or not, doesn't matter. As for dragging the cash that might be a good argument, except for Billy having all those Bimbo eruptions when he was just a lowly governor and no one much cared. Now he lied about dope, and he lied about the draft, and he lied about Gennifer, and he said he didn't recall meeting Willey (until after he read her deposition and then he recalled quite a bit), I think they're probably all lying. But Clinton is the President, not Willey, not Monica, not Tripp, and we really oughta get the truth from our President.
