Embarrassing: WashPost Writes Clinton ‘Allegedly Cheated on His Wife’

Loading

Newsbusters:

Sunday’s Washington Post Magazine has two cover stories, one for Bill Clinton and one (if you turn it upside down on the other side) for Melania Trump. As expected, Bill Clinton is going to get a gushier treatment. Post writer Neely Tucker is so tender to the president that he mangles a fact, and the copy editors (also tender hearts) allowed it. “Fact Checker” Glenn Kessler will not be assigned to this story.

Tucker wrote, “He allegedly cheated on his wife, repeatedly, even in the Oval Office, and with a young woman who wasn’t that much older than their daughter.”

This came right after Tucker warned,

Heading into the homestretch, it seems obvious that even if he makes no further mistakes, even if he gives brilliant tactical advice, promotes inspiring programs for the working class and offers soaring rhetoric about the Great Promise of America, he is still going to be pilloried by opponents as being morally unfit to return to the White House.

Are “opponents” then, correct to “allege” – employing DNA-test results – that the president had an affair with intern? Sure enough, Tucker makes a “blue dress” joke, so he’s well-aware of the facts. But then he gets to compare and contrast. His competition for presidential spouse is a lying supermodel who got naked for photographers, so it’s all good:

Fortunately for Team Clinton, there is Team Trump.

America’s alternative first spouse is Melania Trump. Her website had said she has a college degree (she has also testified in court that she has one), but journalists who have examined her academic record report they could not verify it.

In her one and only campaign speech, she plagiarized Michelle Obama. Also, the third wife of the Republican nominee once posed nude for the cover of British GQ. The headline: “NAKED SUPERMODEL SPECIAL!”

In the battle of spouses, it is Bill “blue dress” Clinton vs. Melania “no dress” Trump. Vote your conscience, America.

Tucker began the piece with the usual Post cup full of sugar:

The plane descends through a haze of afternoon heat and humidity, the Arkansas River appearing as a lazy brown ribbon running through fields of green. There, flanking its southern banks, lies the City of Clinton, also known as Little Rock.

Once the plane touches down at Bill and Hillary Clinton National Airport, it’s a short drive downtown to the William J. Clinton Presidential Center, the primary feature of which is the William J. Clinton Library and Museum.

Here, you can stroll into the Clinton Presidential Park and across the Clinton Presidential Park Bridge. Or you can walk west onto President Clinton Avenue, taking you through the city’s hip River Market district.

It could be suggested this sugar was tactical, so that the Post could note that perhaps the Big Dog needs to stay on the porch and not keep too high a profile. They note the oh-so-cooperative national Democrat media play along, and don’t even send reporters to his events:

So where has the Washington Compost been all these years in lala land smoking their hookas hav’nt they heard of Monica Lewinski and Genifer Flowers?

He also was allegedly impeached for lying. That trait allegedly is contagious his wife has a bad case of it.

That was hilarious!

So where is the verification that Obama got a degree from Harvard? Where is the verification he graduated cum laude (no Clinton reference… I promise)? The only verification we have is that people say it is so.

Will hillary be earning some pinnochios soon?
