Thread Name: BS: Hillary for Veep???
Subject: RE: BS: Hillary for Veep???
To castigate Hillary for "standing by her man" presupposes that you understand their relationship. That is just silly. Putting your opinions about what a relationship should be on their relationship is incorrect.
They could very well have an "open" relationship. Certainly that would have had to have been kept quiet, or their political dreams would have been impossible.
As for the fooling around of Bill - who's to say that Hillary hasn't done the same thing? She might just be more discrete. There have been rumours in the gay and lesbian community for years that she's bisexual. Put on top of that the possibility of a "political marriage" - Imagine, if you will, Hillary wishing to one day becoming president, but realizing that a woman would not be in the cards in her lifetime. She hooks up with Bill, in who she sees the potential. That may consititute one of the most remarkable partnerships of the 20th Century.
But slamming her when you don't really know the story is irresponible and embarrassing.
