In a dramatic move that demonstrates the role conservative media now has in countering liberal attacks, Fox's Sean Hannity has come up with a brilliant countermove.

In response to the announced intention of Herman Cain accuser Karen Kraushaar to organize a press conference attended by the women making charges against of inappropriate behavior -- or worse (Kraushaar has now called Cain a "monster") -- Hannity said on his radio show he would invite the women who accused then-President Bill Clinton of graphic sexual misbehavior onto his Fox television show.

If arranged, this would include:

Juanita Broaddrick, who accused then-Arkansas Attorney General Clinton of rape

Paula Jones, who accused then-Governor Bill Clinton of exposing himself and asking Jones, a state employee, to "kiss it."

Kathleen Willey, who accused then-President Clinton of groping her in the Oval Office.

Gennifer Flowers, who accused then-presidential candidate Bill Clinton of having an affair with her and who also taped some of the conversations.

If it were to air it would be riveting television.

A dramatic television shoot-out that illustrates exactly how the left-wing ignores or assassinates the character of women who accuse a liberal white man of sexual harassment -- while relentlessly performing high-tech lynchings of any conservative black man who strays from the liberal plantation. The high tech lynchings being the modern equivalent of the literal lynchings of black men who had dared to associate with white women, a practice of the American left that horrified Republicans condemned as long ago as the 1924 GOP platform:

We urge the Congress to enact at the earliest possible date a federal anti-lynching law so that the full influence of the federal government may be wielded to exterminate this hideous crime.

The Democrats vigorously opposed this idea. And their convention that year? Yes indeed. It was run by the Ku Klux Klan.

Stay tuned.

That is genius. And should lead to some good laughs.

Let's play to win.

Prester John| 11.9.11 @ 6:39PM

Wouldn't that be refreshing change?

This is what I have been ranting about for years!
We do not have to accept this double standard, nor these smear campaigns, nor feel as if we can not fight back. It is pure genius and it is about time!

The truth will set you free, conservatives.
Expose this, fight this, and defend our candidates and tell the truth and the whole story.

I would also invite Hillary. She has been the willing victim of Bubba. Maybe it would be theraputic for her to meet these women.

Hillary thought the only thing Bill did wrong was not asking Teddy Kennedy to drive his girlfriend home.

tonypal| 11.9.11 @ 6:49PM

Now that would be real theater. I wonder if she still has the pink outfit.

W| 11.9.11 @ 7:48PM

She could bake cookies and stand by her man.

Hannity Oughta Invite Mrs.Cain & Ask Her ,"What Did You Know & When Did You Know It."

I lived in a condominium "behind the pink wall" in Dallas for about two years. Jennifer and her wonderful husband (who was on the condo board) lived in a unit. If you have never seen her in person, you should. Not only is she absolutely stunning, she is smart, funny and gracious. One of the old biddies made a smarmy comment and I spoke up and told her to shove it. Jennifer turned to me with a huge smile and assured me she had been insulted by more articulate people! What a wonderful woman. I hope that she is happy in Vegas.

And this would help either Cain or the conservative cause exactly how?

Let's remind everyone of just how despicable Carville and Co. were as they reacted to Clinton's bimbo eruptions. Let's do it just as Republicans are acting indistinguishably in response to Cain's difficulties.

The argument "see ,the Clinon crew was just as bad" is not a winner. What is Hannity smoking?

JP| 11.9.11 @ 7:33PM

Cain hasn't done anything save a few ridiculous speeches; there is no War Room Hannity has nothing to do with the Cain campaign. Not sure what your point is.

JC| 11.9.11 @ 7:46PM

Would Hannity want to make someone a president that uses their power to harass woman sexually? Wasn't Clinton impeached for his behavior?

Carnifex| 11.9.11 @ 8:59PM

Was someone having a two-for-one sale on straw men?

First of all, Clinton was impeached for lying under oath in a civil suit. That's always a big no-no, but especially for the POTUS.

All we have so far is four women who won't come out publicly and won't go into detail beyond gestures that were not sexual but made them "uncomfortable" (whatever that means), a woman who made a dubious charge of an act that seems highly unlikely in today's bucket-seat automobiles and has media whore Gloria Allred as her mouthpiece, and now a woman who seems to throw a fit wherever she works.

Occam's Tool| 11.9.11 @ 9:32PM

I think it would be good for Hannity's ratings, that's for sure. And it might be fun, because Bubba always deserves to be kicked.

I do not believe any of these women filed an EEOC complaint against Cain. That would be the first step in a truly serious case.
