What I discovered: Clinton found out about the Gingrich affair and called Newt over to the White House for a private meeting between the two of them. Clinton said, "You and I are alike." Which meant, shut up about Monica or I'll start telling your story.
Olasky: Was it blackmail or bonding?
Armey: Newt and Clinton actually developed sort of a bond over it. They had many meetings that we didn't know about where they'd drink wine and smoke cigars and talk about their girlfriends.
Whatever. Shut up, Dick Armey. Shut up, Newt Gingrich. Shut up, Chumbawamba. [ WP ]
He's not just a Dick, he's a Dick Armey.
If there had been even a whiff of scandal the Repubicans would have spared no expense whatsoever to learn the truth. They would have followed the evidence wherever it led, sparing no one. That's the kind of diligence and dedication to the unvarnished truth we expect from Repubicans.
