Honestly, how is this any different from Glenn Beck saying something like, “Well, I don’t personally believe Obama was born in Kenya, but why hasn’t he produced his long-form birth certificate? People are asking questions.” ---

People are asking questions.” Glenn Beck has a vast Red State viewership, and he is compensated with a seven figure salary. My postings are read by a handful of, well, Dopers and my compensation is their good will and gratitude. ---

My postings are read by a handful of, well, Dopers and my compensation is their good will and gratitude. You did not publish the photo with the suggestive headline, Drudge report did, and the purpose was to imply some kind of misconduct. You seem to have been manipulated by this strategy, and you are not the only one. ---

Guys, My only factual claim was that these two photographs look really similar. My most outrageous speculation was that the Betty Suarez lookalike woman is about to become very famous. For this, you compare me to Glenn Beck? ---

Their expressions don’t look remotely similar. Lewinsky looks like she is about to break down in tears, this other woman appears to be an adoring fan. ---

In America we have gay sex or pork fat chicks. If we keep this kind of disparity up we’re gonna have to reexamine the stereotypes. Yeah, I dunno what the problem is? Are hot chicks not allowed into the White House since the Kennedy days? We need a crash program, like the Manhattan Project or Apollo, to get a hot woman to our Presidents before the end of their terms. ---

If he commits adultery, it’ll be with lingerie models and cheerleaders. Well, Clinton could have done much better, too. But he didn’t. I’m still not even seeing the picture the OP is talking about.

I don’t how it would be possible to find the original photo now. The pics on the Drudge home page generally have nothing to do with the articles they link to.
