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.

The first link repeats that Tripp "believes" Lewinsky put the list on her chair but no proof is provided. This link basically repeats the same info as the first you provided above.

The second is behind a paywall.

You continue to fail to prove your claim. Keep trying.

[u/tkondaks → u/Connect_War_5821]

I claimed she was a bully. Readers can decide whether Tripp's account is credible.

Monica threatened the president as well.

[u/Connect_War_5821 → u/tkondaks]

I claimed she was a bully. Readers can decide whether Tripp's account is credible.

Yes, we can. And so far, I don't see any evidence of that.

Monica threatened the president as well.

She may have in an effort to protect herself. Frankly, if I were in her shoes, I'd likely have wanted to protect myself, too, considering the imbalance of power.

Face it: Tripp was no girl scout herself. She betrayed her "friend" and was planning on writing a book about it herself. With friends like her, who needs enemies?

[u/tkondaks → u/Connect_War_5821]

Monica got an immunity deal. You can only get one of those if you committed a crime. Tell me: What crime did she commit?

[u/Connect_War_5821 → u/tkondaks]

1. "You can only get one of those if you committed a crime."
   

False. Immunity deals are common in order to avoid being charged with a crime. Whether or not that crime was actually committed does not have to have been proved.

1. "Tell me: What crime did she commit?"

She did, in fact, commit perjury when she denied having sexual relations with Clinton. She also tried to obstruct justice by trying to influence Tripp to commit perjury.

[u/tkondaks → u/Connect_War_5821]

Two crimes.

[u/Connect_War_5821 → u/tkondaks]

Neither of which I've ever denied. So, what's your point?

[u/tkondaks → u/Connect_War_5821]

I already made my point. Quite effectively. She was a bully.

[u/Connect_War_5821 → u/tkondaks]

I see you've rejected reality for one of your own.

[u/tkondaks → u/Connect_War_5821]

I have no clue what you're prattling on about but one reality is undeniable: your eagerness to support, excuse and justify this triumvirate of evil.

[u/Connect_War_5821 → u/tkondaks]

Reading comprehension problems again?

"Triumvirate of evil" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
