<I harbor no sentiments but pity for her predicament.How could most feel otherwise?> Heres how .She will no doubt sell her story for a million dollars,a movie will be done for another million and she will lead a life forever free of financial worry.Five years from now after a name change[small enough price to pay] she will just be a wealthy young woman doing what ever she chooses.A brief affair with a married man will hardly make her unique.We should all be so lucky.

Monica was a young woman taken advantage of by a pathological liar and manipulator,

Well perhaps yes, but there you go again. Who are you to say that Monica was taken advantage of by Bill Clinton? He was interested and she was interested and thats it. I don't see anyone taking advantage of anyone in that scenario.

Once again, I want you all here to stop imposing your bombastic morals on all of us.

There is an opportunist in this scenario however that you seem to leave off the equation. That is Ken Starr. It is Ken Starr who has taken advantage of Monica, in order to advance himself politically after his blankmind attempt at destroying the Clintons with Whitewater.

I normally agree with you, but Monica as victim? Huh? She came from Oregon to Washington specifically to work for Clinton -- there was some infatuation there before he even met her. Sure, he picked up on her vulnerability in the same way rock stars take advantage of groupies, but groupies have to put themselves in the line of fire first. Monica got what she came for -- access to power and influence.
