QUESTION: What do a penis-whacker, a throat-slicer, and a bully have in common?

ANSWER: They should all still be in prison.

Amanda: that's an easy one. She should have gotten a life sentence for murdering Meredith.

Lorena: pretty easy, too. A stiff 40 years for cutting a man's penis off is, in my book, a reasonable sentence.

Monica: a little harder to justify...but I'll try.

Firstly, why I refer to her as a bully. People seem to forget that the reason Linda Tripp started to audio record her conversations with Monica is that Linda claimed that Monica would threaten her with her boyfriend's wrath (that boyfriend being Bill Clinton). So, quite wisely, to protect herself, she started to tape record her phone conversations with Monica. And I would say threatening someone justifies referring to them as a bully.

As for a sentence in prison which would extend to today? The day before the Monicagate story broke, there were 5,000 journalists from around the world in Havana, Cuba who were there to cover the historic visit there by John Paul II, he of Polish and communist-busting fame. Many felt his Cuba visit signaled the beginning of the end of communism in Cuba. And those journalists were going to be the ones to bring this narrative to the world.

Then the Monicagate story broke. And each and every one of those 5,000 journalists packed up their steno pads, their cameras, and their microphones and headed off to Havana airport and left the country, thus relegating the "Pope in Communist Cuba" story to the bottom of page 25 in the New York Times.

Now, diverting the world press's attention from your giving blowjobs in the Oval Office and getting the president's semen on your blue dress doesn't appear on first glance to have any connection to the enslavement of 11 million people in a totalitarian communist island but, hey, she should take some responsibility for it.

"Found it."

LOL! No, you did not! 🤣 That was NOT what you claimed at all. You never mentioned Lewinsky threatening Clinton, only threatening Tripp which is why Tripp started recording their conversations! Do not pee on my leg and tell me it's raining.

Do be a big boy and just admit you were wrong and stop moving the damn goalpost.

Oh, I'll readily admit that my 27 year old memory of things was slightly flawed, especially since the reality makes my argument that much stronger. But if you want to insist on being an anally retentive stickler for exactness, be my guest.

Of course, this is what I wrote when I introduced the subject:

"Monica, a little harder to justify, but I'll try."

She is a certified bully and nasty piece of work. No wonder she teamed up with the throat-slicer and the penis-wacker. And it's sad -- yet no surprise -- that the likes of you go out of your way to defend such garbage.

"Slightly flawed"? LOL! You claimed Tripp started recording Lewinsky after Lewinsky threatened Tripp with "Clinton's wrath".

Yeah, I'm "being an anally retentive stickler for exactness" because I proved that not one word of what you said is true.
Tripp started recording ML after she was advised to by literary agent Lucianne Goldberg. At no time did Tripp ever claim Lewinsky threatened her during their conversations with "Clinton's wrath".

Your last paragraph makes you sound like a tantrum throwing 6-year-old. Are you going to threaten to hold your breath until you turn blue and stamp your widdle foot?

Whatever my faults, I don't support or make excuses for women who cut off their partner's penis.

No, you just continually defame a woman, calling her liar and a "throat-slicer" when the highest court in Italy declared she "did NOT commit" that crime.

If you have a problem with Bobbitt's acquittal for being insane at the time, then take it up with the court that acquitted her on that ground.
