On Tuesday, in their eagerness to pile dirt on the political grave of Alabama Senate Republican candidate Roy Moore, the Left finally decided to throw over serial sexual abuser Bill Clinton. It took them a quarter-century to do so, and they waited until Clinton was no longer a viable figure in their movement — until he had lost all draw and fundraising capacity. And they hemmed and hawed about just why it had taken them so long to give credibility to Clinton’s myriad accusers. But Bill Clinton’s days as a respected public figure are finally over; thanks to Donald Trump and Roy Moore, the Left finally had to face down its own hypocrisy.
It began with a shocking op-ed from Michelle Goldberg in The New York Times, titled “I Believe Juanita.” Goldberg explains that she now believes the rape allegations against Bill Clinton — but she didn’t before because right-wingers were engaged in a vast right-wing conspiracy. In other words, any time it’s politically beneficial to ignore “politically motivated” allegations, ignore them; you can always buy it back decades later.
