I think that Monica Lewinsky has been misunderstood all of these years. After all, she was just an intern in DC, just before the time that I got there, and of course as a young intern she would be overcome by the thrill of having access to the President and the Oval Office. But now, she is just about Bill’s age when she was originally in the Oval Office with him, and even tho she did not have actual $ex with him, she did stuff to Bill like almost any other cute 20 something college girl would do in the same situation, so we should not now fault her for any of that, especially after all of these years. I do feel bad for her that she never got married and had kids, and hope that was not b/c of Bill, and wonder if any other women have done similar stuff with other POTUSes in the Oval Office? I think the answer must be YES, but ask the HIVE if they know.

Not seeing what is wrong with Mike Pence’s tweet. He’s right – as a culture, we should spend more time in person, and more time praying and thinking about the value of every single person.

Really? You do know that many (most???) people use the term “on your knees” to mean oral s*x, not praying?

No, we should NOT all spend more time on supernatural nonsense.
