ADMITTED double standard. Patricia Ireland admits Clinton did wrong, but they stand behind him because of his history of support for women's causes.

It is obvious that NOW holds a much different standard for conservatives accused of sexual harassment than liberals accused of the same thing. Well I have no love for the feminists but I found Anita Hill to be completely credible. I think many did, and it seems that she came forward because she didnt want a guy like that on the Supreme Court. Paula Jones did not seem credible to me. What were her motivations? My point is I think there are plenty of people that see things my way and it has nothing to do with a liberal vs. conservative agenda. Sorry but Anita Hill v. Paula Jones is just not an apples to apples comparison. Maybe the feminists had the same impression. BTW I think the bogus Paula Jones lawsuit, where she suffered no damage whatsoever and her claims appear to be financially motivated, caused more damage to sexual harassment legislation in this country than anything Clinton could have done. Now, whenever there is a sexual harassment claim, people are going to think about this opportunistic Paula Jones case. Or is someone out there willing to defend Paulas position that this Clinton incident made her frigid for years?
