WASHINGTON — Senator Kirsten Gillibrand, Democrat of New York, who holds Hillary Clinton’s former seat, said on Thursday that Bill Clinton should have resigned the presidency after his inappropriate relationship with an intern came to light nearly 20 years ago.

Asked directly if she believed Mr. Clinton should have stepped down at the time, Ms. Gillibrand took a long pause and said, “Yes, I think that is the appropriate response.”

I wonder, where were the feminists during Bill's presidency? Why were the feminists supporting Bill's wife who enabled Bill's criminal behavior? A little too late imo to condemn Bill's behavior now.

Criminal? Clinton might be guilty of a lot of different things, but calling his sexual relationships 'criminal' is just conservatives having a desperate need for political strike-back for the Moore scandal being exposed.

He raped women. That is not criminal behavior?

You do realize Bill Clinton hasn’t been the president for almost two decades, yes?

I find it funny they constantly claim liberals are not over the 2016 election, when they still haven't moved on from 1992.

It's actually pathetic to watch them try to bring each and every scandal back to the Clintons. I mean, if we wanted to, we could bring up the corruption of Reagan and both Bush administrations anytime to deflect attention from democratic scandals. There is certainly an ample simply of examples.
 
Show me actual evidence of real criminal conduct by Bill Clinton, and I’ll condemn it, but for all the false equivalencies puked up to make him and Roy Moore the same, THEY’RE NOT.

Trump groped countless women allegedly, do you take those claims seriously?

It’s all they’ve been instructed.

Who did Bill Clinton rape? He was accused by Juanita Broaddrick

The many victims of Bill Clinton are many and still stick by there stories even today.

This is very different from the "victims" of Donald Trump who have gone on record and said the media distorted their claims and reported things that did not happen.

Caught, and accused are two separate things.
But besides that, yes. Several individuals in the republican wheelhouse have done such things.

However those in the DNC are more then willing to brow beat people with their moral superiority, and when placed against a group that is mostly Conservative/Christian that is saying something.

The Clintons are certainly bad people for all of the bad policy they've supported. DADT, the bailout, the Iraq war, supporting the drug war, etc.

But stuff like Whitewater and Benghazi has always been about a personal vendetta the GOP has against the Clintons for simply winning elections.

LOL!.

"the clintons for simply winning elections."

Was Hillary president?
 
Bill Clinton should have been impeached for bad taste in women. Surrounded by gorgeous model groupies, what better line for a proposition than "I am the president, want to do me?" His choices were not exactly attractive, some, repulsive. Criminal. Absolutely criminal. :)

All of those women have retracted their stories.

Yeah, and so did Broaddrick and Jones.

The truth about sex scandals is that they are not created equal, and not everybody is guilty simply because several accusers come forward -- that much I can agree with critics of the recent flood of stories. However, there is a big difference between someone like Dustin Hoffman (or even George Bush) being accused of a pinch on the booty thirty years ago, and guys like Moore and Weiner who accused of sex with minors, and who's victims have evidence.

And yet the topic quickly devolves back to Moore, all of this liberal deflection is making me thirsty.

In the case of Weiner, I have seen the evidence.

Still waiting for said evidence to materialize in Moore's case however.
