"From my standpoint, I think it was appropriate behavior on our part,"
Hutchinson said. They never pressed to include the Broaddrick allegation
in the trial, he added, because "it would have been wrong to throw out
something pejorative to the president and not probative to the issues
involved.";

Now this makes sense; why would you want to throw out something pejorative about the President; after all; he is just a perjurer, a liar, and an obstructor of justice, but God knows; we don't want to say anything pejorative about him. Thank you Asa for explaining this to all of us.

"Juanita has never been in control of this story," Dave Broaddrick said
yesterday. "She told it when she has had to in legal situations. This is the
first time, under no pressure, she has been able to be in control of the story
since it happened, and that's a refreshing place to be.";

I wonder what the definition of control is? After all; when you tell the story under oath; what control do you have; you have to tell the truth, but then she lied under oath, but what does that matter; what would that matter???????? It is how she tells it when she is paid to tell it by the media; that's when you have control over the thing.

Looking back, Juanita Broaddrick said yesterday that she does not believe
she made a mistake by keeping quiet in 1978 but wishes she had come
forward in 1992. "I feel that had I come out in '92, that it may have made a
difference," she said. "I regret that."

As for going public now, she said, "I feel like I have gotten the biggest
weight off my shoulders. I did it because of my twin granddaughters --
they're 12. . . . When they ask me about this in a few years, I want them to
say, 'That was a neat thing you did.' I didn't want them asking me, 'Why
didn't you come forward?' ";

I guess if you come forward; it really doesn't matter WHEN to the children. After all; all the children will want to know is; Grandma, could you write me a check for college, could you buy me a car for Christmas; gee Grandma, thank you for coming forward.
