[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]looks like she lost the puppy fat a lot of women have in their early 20's.  She was cute before, but she looks really good now.

I remember thinking at the time that she was a total dumbass, but I do feel bad that one lapse in judgment had to follow her for the rest of her life.  Too bad she confided in someone with an ax to grind; she could have kept things secret, had a normal career and written a killer tell-all much later in life.

(and yeah, I think Clinton f'ed up.  Bigtime.  Bigger error in judgment.  abuse of power.  [b]But they were both adults, so her judgment was an issue too[/b].)[/quote]

Aside from hooking up with a married person being not-so-great, what did she do wrong, exactly? [/quote]

If hooking up with a married person isn't enough (IMHO, it is), hooking up with your boss is also a significant lapse in judgment -- more so when your boss is in a position that receives a lot of scrutiny.[/quote]

Excuse me?  She may have been over 18, but she was a child.  Set aside for a moment that he was the President of the United States.  If he had been a 50 year old CEO and she had been an intern at his company, would you feel the same way?  Would you blame the intern for sleeping with a man who had that much power over her?  Further, before she talked, she lost her job (they shuffled her off to another agency) because she slept with Clinton.  I remember Senator Boxer ranting on the Senate floor about a Republican who had an affair, saying that "There is no such thing as a consensual relationship" between a boss and their employee.  However, when it was a Democratic POTUS and a girl that was barely of age, it was suddenly all the girl's fault.  [/quote]

I somewhat agree that she got the short end here but you're going too far by calling her a child. If a 22 year old murdered a loved one, would you be as compassionate and call that person a child?[/quote]
