It was lying about it so transparently that everyone knew right along that he had sent them and screwed up. My first guess was that he had misaddressed them and panicked. If you can't come up with a believable lie, tell the truth.<br /><br />He should have tried, "You knew I was a Democrat when you elected me. What did you expect? Hell, Billy "Blue Dress" Clinton presided at my wedding. It was pictures of my junk and some dirty chat. So what? Now, go away and find some real news."<br /><br />I could have respected that.ASM826https://www.blogger.com/profile/04017388670319590449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6322916946732811685.post-50590064862742601552011-06-09T22:01:34.085-04:002011-06-09T22:01:34.085-04:00As long as we're coming out of the closet, so ...As long as we're coming out of the closet, so to speak, right on, right on, right on.<br /><br />I worked for an Agency No One Knew Existed, too, and we all went through those polygraph trials, too. If I had done anything remotely like what Weiner has done, I'd be sitting with big bad men in Leavenworth now. They'd pull your clearance so fast, your head would spin faster than a rotary lawnmower blade.SiGraybeardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00280583031339062059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6322916946732811685.post-85957054665074498442011-06-09T21:38:53.103-04:002011-06-09T21:38:53.103-04:00I had to have a set of clearances to work as a com...I had to have a set of clearances to work as a communicator in the Navy, so I know what you're talking about. It always pissed me off that Clinton was excused with "it's just sex" when he was endangering national security, leaving himself open to blackmail or even assassination. If a chubby intern could get that level of access, what could a Russian "honeytrap" spy have done?Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11402651457453813639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6322916946732811685.post-80841820187450386242011-06-09T19:55:37.097-04:002011-06-09T19:55:37.097-04:00You know people are looking at the original offens...You know people are looking at the original offense -- sending an inappropriate picture of himself to someone.
