“It’s None of Your Business”
Posted by: Not The Only One in Jokes, Government Corruption, 2008 Presidential RaceDespite her fancy private school education and degrees from Stanford and Oxford Chelsea Clinton was still dumb enough to reply “It’s none of your business” to a question from a student asking whether Hillary’s credibility had been hurt by the Monica Lewinsky scandal, since the former first lady originally stated the allegations of a sexual relationship between her husband and the chubby against him were fabricated by a “vast right-wing conspiracy.”
Guess what, Chelsea? Your dad’s affair is every American’s business, because he had sex with a White House Intern (someone who was enlisted by the government to work as a White House official) in the Oval Office (the office of the U.S. President, paid for by tax dollars) and often fooled around with her while he was supposed to be working (his paycheck and benefits paid for by Americans). If any other civil servant had been using his agency’s office to have sex with a colleague while both parties were on the clock, it would rightfully be he public’s business to hold that government worker accountable for these unprofessional acts.
It is because he chose to have sex with a White House intern in the Oval Office while on the clock that allowed Republicans in Congress to try to impeach him. Had Bill Clinton had an affair with a truck stop waitress in a Motel 6 during one of his vacation weeks or any other time he was not expected to be working, it would not be a public issue.
So screw you, Chelsea! Nyah, nyah, nyah! It is everyone’s business. Besides, if Hillary can bust Barack’s balls over his relationship with Rev. Jeremiah Wright (someone who Obama never asked for political guidance and whose involvement in the campaign was of a purely spiritual capacity), anyone should be able to do the same to Hillary over the Monica Lewinsky scandal. No one forced Hillary to blame the GOP for creating rumors about her husband.
Chelsea is also an idiot because now, everywhere she goes, someone will ask her about Monica Lewinsky just to push her buttons. And if she’s trying to act as a spokesperson for her mother’s campaign, the focus of the event will go from talking about the campaign to telling off some smart ass heckler in the crowd.

OK I need to pay devils advocate here. Chelsea Clinton has to deal with having the visual of her father’s activities for the rest of her life. I have the feeling that Chelsea’s relationship with Mom and Dad is rather interesting to say the least.

If you’re playing devil’s advocate, does that make Chelsea the devil?
I do sympathize with Chelsea but the Democratic National Party and the American public and the world has had to suffer much more than she did from the Monica Lewinsky scandal, if not more. The very public nature of the Monica Lewinsky scandal partially cost Al Gore the 2000 election because the jackass decided to distance himself from Bill Clinton throughout his Presidential campaign, an incredibly stupid move in my opinion.
Everybody talks about how George W. Bush stole the election, but he wouldn’t have been able to have gotten away with it if the election results weren’t so damn close. Although Al Gore got a prize for being such a vocal environmentalist, he never said a peep about global warming. Gore’s desire to boldly take no stand whatsoever, along with keeping Bill Clinton out of his campaign, were the two main causes which lead to Gore’s failure to win a significant majority of popular votes and fewer electoral votes than Bush.
In my opinion, if Bill had never had sex with a White House intern, there would’ve been no scandal and no attempted impeachment, Gore would have made Bill the centerpiece of his Presidential campaign, maybe even run Bill as VP. Gore probably would’ve soundly beat Baby Bush, and there would’ve been no President W. And with no George W. Bush in the White House there would’ve been no invasion of Iraq, no Haliburton, no 4,000 dead American soldiers, no subprime mortgage crisis, no illegal wiretapping of U.S. citizens, no weak economy, (maybe even no 9/11?) no re-election of President Bush, and I understand we’re planning to invade Colombia or Ecuador now?
So I feel Chelsea and Hillary can go fuck off. At least they’re employed, millionaires, alive, not losing their homes and not grieving the combat deaths of loved ones, which certainly can’t be said for thousands of other Americans. The very least Chelsea can do is field an uncomfortable question.
I’m not going to blame Bill for having an affair. But I seriously think he should have contemplated the consequences of having sex with a White House intern in the Oval Office while on the clock. Of course, Bill did not think he was going to get caught. If Bill had fooled around with a truck stop waitress at a Holiday Inn, his extramarital fling would not have had the political impact it did.
