Lewinsky is not complaining about him being a predator. Oh? You nor I have heard the tapes of conversations she had with Linda Tripp. Lucianne Goldberg, who advised Linda Tripp that for her legal protection, she should begin taping her conversations, said that she would make sure that eventually the tapes would become public, even if she had to publish them on the internet . Lucianne said that if you heard the tapes, you would realize how grossly had a married President Clinton manipulated the emotions of a 19 year-old subordinate employee, all for his personal sexual satisfaction. These are not family values. These are not healthy workplace values. These are not Presidential values. And Clinton knows it , even if you don't. That's why he lied under oath in his Jones trial deposition. That's why he emphatically lied to the American people on TV. That's why he "misled" his wife and daughter. That's why he used the bully pulpit of his spokesman to back up the lie. That's why he personally lied to his senior cabinet members. That's why he for seven months stonewalled federal investigators with an historically unprecedented number of "executive privilege assertions", the majority of which (if not all) federal judges over-ruled. That's why he lied to Kenneth Starr, saying his answers in the Jones deposition where "legally accurate". That's why he took back the subpoened gifts that he had given to Lewinsky. That's why he lied to the Russian people, saying he "had already asked forgiveness" [when in fact he had not: he had said he "deeply regretted it"] That's why he lied to the Irish, saying he "had said he was sorry" [when in fact he had not said that]. That's why his spokesman Mike McCurry lied to reporters, saying "the President thinks that he's been saying all along that he's sorry, and he figures that I'm sorry means I'm sorry" [when in fact it was in Ireland that the President first voiced the words "I'm sorry"]. That's why, jim kelley, that the lies continue to roll so easily off the Clinton administration's lips: They know that extramarital sex in the office with a 19 year-old subordinate employee is not okay for the President (or indeed any CEO). Neither is it okay in the process of covering up something to lie under oath, obstruct justice, tamper with witnesses, or abuse the power and resources of the exective branch. I hope you now understand.
