McCains statement is just words. Unless he and other republicans actually do something, their statements and tweets are meaningless. Its the same as “thoughts and prayers” given after a tragedy. Fucking meaningless. He's fighting brain cancer. What do you expect him to do? I'll give him a pass. The other useless GOP tweeters, not so much. I would have expected him to do/say what was right BEFORE too. But not even he did.

A better narrative about a sexual relationship with a 22 year old intern who works for you? Seriously? Clinton is damn lucky the narrative is as good as it is IMO. TWO consenting adults. Inappropriate certainly, poor judgement for both parties, but again, TWO consenting Adults.

It wasn't just two consenting adults, there was a serious imbalance of power at play as well.

At this rate, Palin really will be seeing Russia from her front porch before too long...

Wonder where we’d be now. (Besides probably having a Democratic president, actually.) IMHO, if President Obama had never been President, we would not have trump. Let’s stroll further down that road. If Obama had never been president, McCain would. I really doubt SP would have then won (or even run; she’s lazy), but what if McCain had gotten sick while in office? Yeep. You with me? Trump wouldn’t’a then had the Obama hatred momentum to run on. Some Democrat (Hillary?) would’ve had the Palin hatred to run on. (Too bad life isn’t like one of those “pick your ending” kids’ books.)

While I agree that comparing the two reasons for impeachment is ridiculous, Clinton doesn't get a pass. It wasn't just two consenting adults, there was a serious imbalance of power at play as well. And when you look at it through the narrative of your current #MeToo era, he was abusing his power. All of the interviews she's given in the last 5 or so years have said that she feels this way now.
I think the fact that we are SO about right/left at this point only fuels Trump. In MN, we had Jesse Ventura, the wrestler as a Governor. People were shocked that he ran and even more shocked when he won. But it was like someone else said, a shake-up. It got the candidates to think through the mindless representation because the people of MN had a voice. I think Obama was like that and Trump is like that. But while Obama didn't flaunt his leadership as 'all knowing' and took in the information of his cabinet members and those around him, it appears that isn't occurring now. But this isn't a red/blue, right/left, conservative/liberal thing. It's a USA thing. And if you listen to the people in other countries speak of how we appear now in the World Stage to how we appeared 5, 10, 20 years ago...we are in trouble.

I think she's just complaining because she doesn't want to see Sarah's smug, smarmy face.
