Talk:Hillary Rodham Clinton (view source)
Revision as of 23:27, January 22, 2012
, 23:27, January 22, 2012→"Open Marriage"
PPPS: True story: my mother met Bill at a charity event once. They spoke briefly and took a picture together. In the picture, he has his hand around her waist, low enough to almost feel her butt and definitely low enough to be inappropriate. My mom didn't even notice until after she saw the picture. Now that's charisma.[[User:RachelW|RachelW]] 18:13, 22 January 2012 (EST)

:Rachel, it's not. The book, ''Open Marriage'' appeared roughly the same time of the Clinton's courtship & early marriage. It expressed what might be described as a liberal/progressive view of marriage intended of young liberal/progressives & feminists. It had a revolutionary impact on many young liberal/progressives, among them evidently the Clinton's. That the concept of extra-marital infidelity is something perhaps shameful and repulsive, then and now, may perhaps be viewed as a conservative position -- something this book, the Clinton's in particular myriads of their supporters and apologists repudiated. Now, suddenly, open marriage and infidelity is considered aberrant, at least in the Gingrich case. Perhaps all it means is Gingrich isn't right-wing conservative monster the Clinton's painted as then. But that is irrelevant to Hilary's bio. The plain fact is, she & Bill have practiced an open marriage since the day the book fist appeared. [[User:RobSmith|Rob Smith]] 18:27, 22 January 2012 (EST)
