Considering the Democratic party's "war on women" rhetoric and HRC constantly being held up as a feminist icon, I wondered what posters thought of this story;

"The conservative news site Washington Free Beacon has posted an audiotaped interview of Hillary Clinton bragging about her successful 1975 defense of a man she seems to have believed was guilty of raping a 12-year-old girl.

In an interview in the mid-1980s for an Esquire magazine piece that never ran, Clinton’s glee is audible about the prosecution’s big mistake in the case, when it accidentally discarded key evidence.

she questioned the credibility of the victim and suggested that the sixth-grader, who an ER doctor said showed injuries consistent with rape, had “a tendency to seek out older men.”

Also on the audiotape, Clinton may have violated attorney-client privilege in discussing Taylor, a factory worker who is dead now but was still alive when she gave the interview.

“[Of] course he claimed that he didn’t’’ rape the girl, “and all this stuff. I had him take a polygraph, which he passed — which forever destroyed my faith in polygraphs,” she said, laughing.

“I never sought out older men,’’ the adult victim told Newsday in 2008. She said she had never before accused anyone of assault. “I was raped,” she told Thrush, in an attack that she felt had contributed to a suicide attempt about a year later and to decades of depression and other problems.

Clinton’s spokesman declined to comment."

EDIT to be clear. I don't consider HRC a rape apologist, I consider her a hypocrite. A story like this about one of her opponents would be "clear evidence" of misogyny to her supporters, but they will give her a pass.
