Sen. Paul: Dems Should Recall Clinton's Intern Scandal

Democrats should remember President Bill Clinton's sexual affair with a White House intern before turning their criticism to Republicans' attitudes toward women, Sen. Rand Paul said Sunday.

"He took advantage of a girl that was 20 years old and an intern in his office," said Paul, R-Ky. "There is no excuse for that, and that is predatory behavior."

Paul's invocation of intern Monica Lewinsky comes as Democrats have been redoubling their efforts to paint the GOP as a party that stands opposed to women on issues such as contraception, abortion rights and equal pay. In the wake of losing back-to-back presidential elections, the GOP has tried to improve its outreach to female voters, who reliably support Democratic candidates.

Uh, duh! Clinton wasn't trying to impose his morality on the whole country. This is ridiculous logic to connect the two. Desperation, Mr. Paul, desperation.

Yes 9:41, we are all desperate. We are desperate to see the media do their job as watchdogs for the citizens instead of lapdogs for the democrats. Clinton is a serial rapist, but it has been covered up by not being covered. Do some REAL research (not on the huffington post) if you REALLY want to know the facts (which is probably not the case).

I'm not saying Clinton is anything other than what you say, 10:04. I'm saying he didn't try to pass laws telling me what my morals should be. He might be scum, but I'm not, and I don't need Rand Paul and his like trying to legislate my morality.

She was a consenting adult and she threw herself at him multiple times. Nothing predatory about it.
