This Day In History

When I logged on today, I saw this little interesting tidbit on my PeoplePC home page:

1998 - President Bill Clinton angrily denied reports he'd had an affair with former White House intern Monica Lewinsky and had tried to get her to lie about it.

"Angrily denied." And rightfully so, since he was proven to be completely innocent, and . . .

Oh, never mind.

  8. 8 years later and I'm still stuck on the terrible waste of what was likely a very good cigar.

  9. The English teacher in me listened closely to his semantics and watched the wagging finger.

    "I did not have sexual relations with that woman, (wag pointed finger) Miss Lewinsky..."

    If I had been reading it in a book, I would have SWORN he was pointing to someone in the crowd and addressing 'Miss Lewinsky'. Which might make the statement true, but given his prodigious, erm, appetite, it is entirely doubtful that there is any more veracity to his statments even when viewed THAT way.
