"MODEST MONICA GIVES US A VIEW
OF HER MIND"
If you're one of the few Americans who
didn't watch the Monica Lewinsky interview
on ABC, I have only one thing to say to you:
Where are your priorities?
Lucky for you, I obtained an unedited
videotape of the Intern-view of the Century
and, as a public service, am willing to
share some excerpts.
BARBARA WALTERS: Monica, you have
been described as a bimbo, a stalker, and
a seductress. And those were the words of
your friends. Describe yourself.
MONICA: I think I'm loving, loyal, and
intelligent. I certainly feel I've been
misportrayed in the past year. I should have
been described as a loving bimbo, a loyal
stalker and an intelligent seductress.
BARBARA: This is the first time you've
really been able to speak out, here on my
show, not Oprah's. Is there something you
particularly want to say?
MONICA: Yes, there certainly is. Hi Mom!
I'm on TV! Look, Barbara Walters is
interviewing me. And we're talking about
my affair with the president. Aren't you
proud?
BARBARA: Monica, try to remember your
lines. Is there something you particularly
want to say?
MONICA: Oh, sorry. Yes, there is. I
wouldn't dream of asking Chelsea and
Mrs. Clinton to forgive me, but I would ask
them to know that I am very sorry for what
happened and what they've been through.
And I'd also like to apologize in advance
for smiling so much as I describe how I
seduced the president. I'll try to remember
to cry later.
BARBARA: On November 15, 1995, you
found yourself alone with Bill Clinton and
you lifted the back of your jacket and you
showed the president of the United States
your big, fat butt. Where did you get the
nerve?
MONICA: Take my word for it, it was a
small, subtle flirtatious gesture. If I had
wanted to be more obvious, I would have
done a handstand on his desk.
BARBARA: When he kissed you, what
did you think?
MONICA (laughing): He's a good kisser.
Even better than all the other married men
I've kissed.
BARBARA: You are a very sensual,
passionate young woman. Is Bill Clinton a
sensual, passionate man? And does he
like older women like me?
MONICA (laughing hysterically): I think he
is a very sensual man who has a lot of
sensual feelings and he also has a very
strong religious upbringing. In fact, the
first time I got on my knees in front of
him, he thought I was praying. And
another time, when we heard footsteps
outside his office, he said, "Good Lord,
let that not be my wife."
BARBARA: You told Bill Clinton that you
were in love with him. What did he say?
MONICA: He said, "That means a lot to
me." Come to think of it, he also said
that after every sexual act.
BARBARA: After your fifth sexual
encounter, you said to Bill Clinton, "Is this
only about sex or do you have some
interest in getting to know me as a
person?" What did he say?
MONICA: He started to cry and told me he
never wanted me to think he was only
after sex. That's not what this relationship
was about, he said. We were just starting
with sex and moving on to higher things.
He'd eventually get to know me as well as
he knows his wife. Soon after he left her.
BARBARA: And you believed him? Tell
me Monica, do you really want people to
describe you as intelligent?
