THAT WAS MY POINT. (Or maybe it wasn’t, but it should have been.)

And finally the OP may sink in. Bill Clinton’s _penis_ is popular. Bill Clinton was a mediocre President for a moderate, and a sellout for a liberal.\* But his sexual exploits have (apparently) made him a rock star in voters’ minds. \*Despite the fact that his sexual exploits weren’t really anything that amazing or studly. He was mostly a pathetic grabby boss whose greatest success in the White House was when he found a homely intern willing to settle for oral.

Nope, he was the best President the US has had in the last 20 years.

I’m not sure where anyone gets the idea that WJC was a _liberal_ president. He was a **NOT-REPUBLICAN** , and that’s something I’ve resigned myself to being the best we can hope for, at least for a few more terms.

We agree on something at least.

But see, that’s the irony. The very things that we were willing to overlook when Clinton was President are a lot harder to overlook when he’s just roaming the White House looking for college girls to diddle.

Unless he’s some kind of superman then I assume his Libido has somewhat ebbed in the last 20 years. He’ll be 70 next year when his Penis moves into the white house. Even Hugh Hefner slowed down with age.

Why twenty, rather than, say, forty? Surely you can’t seriously believe Reagan and GHWB were better presidents.

I think his penis ought to go to the Smithsonian when he dies.

You’re right, Bill Clintons Penis was a better President than Reagan’s Ballsack or GHWB’s arsecrack.

Who thinks this? I don’t think I’ve ever heard anyone say anything like this.

Apparently some bitter republicans who haven’t been laid in the last 20 years think this. They’re still obsessing over Bill Clintons Penis after all this time.

Fantasy-liberals think this. I learn stuff about fantasy-world-liberals from Dopers all the time. You’ll never believe what those idiot fantasy-world-libs believe… what a bunch of jackasses they are, living in their fantasy/not-real world!

That’s damning with faint praise.

And yet that’s the implication. Of course, if we go back 40, we hit Ford and Carter, and it’s a contest again. 😉

And going back further gets – problematic.

ETA: At least until we reach Ike/HST/FDR territory.

Those shitheads are always making us look bad. If I ever meet one, I’m gonna give him a punch that passes right through him and knocks me off balance.

I recognize that this is an opinion, and of course you’re welcome to it. But I also don’t know who, apart from a small population of dudebros I suppose, believes this.

That is to say, cite? 🙂

I like how the media focus is now on Bill Clinton’s pathologies and her efforts as an enabler. Hillary should never have played the war on women card.

I’m quite willing to entertain the possibility that Bill Clinton is a rapist. It isn’t proven, but if it _were_ proven, I can’t really say I’d be surprised.

It’s not going to stop me from supporting Hillary for president, though.

Several op-eds about Clinton in the media the last few days from major columnists: Ruth Marcus went so far as concede that the criticism of Clinton is valid, and we already know what Maureen Dowd thinks.
