Well, a consensus from some who were there seems to be building about Bill Clinton's memoir. Not that it will matter to him -- a sense of shame was never an impediment for the scoundrel from Hope.
A Harvard professor says Bill Clinton lied about him:
There are places Bill Clinton remembers in My Life—just not too well, according to Kennedy School of Government professor and Dunster House Master Roger B. Porter, who alleges that the former president fabricated a damning conversation between the two of them in his newly published memoir.
So does Monica Lewinsky.
Former White House intern Monica Lewinsky scorned Bill Clinton's explanation that he had an affair with her "just because I could," and accused the former president of failing to correct the record and make it clear in his new memoir that their relationship was mutual.
Deluded Monica still can't accept that she was used from the start.
Miss Lewinsky said her relationship with Mr. Clinton had been mutual, "from the way it started, all the way through.""My memories of it were much more positive. I think that I had enjoyed someone being so happy to see me, and certainly the gifts that were exchanged were touching."
Gennifer Flowers may file a lawsuit against Bubba.
“I have not yet read Mr. Clinton’s book, but you can bet that my Judicial Watch attorneys will. I have learned that Bill Clinton has repeated his lies about me, and I am sickened by his continued disregard for the truth. Bill Clinton pretends to be contrite, but he continues to bear false witness against his neighbor. He is a national disgrace.”
A former Prime Minister of Israel also begs to differ, oh so politely, when asked by Ha'aretz.
Former prime minister Ehud Barak, rejecting assertions by Bill Clinton that Barak bore major responsibility for the breakdown of Israeli-Syrian peace talks in January, 2000, said Sunday that the former president's account of the negotiations was based on "factual inaccuracies on the simplest of levels."Posted by Alan at June 27, 2004 10:40 PM"Clinton is not lying" in the account in the recently published "My Life," Barak said. But he added that the president was absent from many of the discussions that preceded the breakdown in talks held in Shepherdstown, Virginia, and may have adopted reports given him by aides.
Saying that it was not his place to explain why there were inaccuracies, Barak said that "Clinton was not present in Shepherdstown for many of the Shepherdstown discussions."
Barak rejected out of hand the contention that he had based his stance on Israeli polls. "This is simply an urban legend," he said, adding that there were no polls showing similar results at the time.
Barak said the Clinton account was also inaccurate regarding the positions of his predecessor as prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu. "Netanyahu did not speak of returning to the international border line, rather a line that would leave a strip up to two miles wide," he said.
