Bill Clinton's greatest fear was losing Chelsea's love

New York | June 22, 2004 2:46:57 PM IST

As former American president Bill Clinton is coming out of the closet with his new book "My Life," he has revealed that more than anything else he was scared that his daughter Chelsea would never be able to forgive him for his affair with Monica Lewinsky.

According to The New York Daily News, Clinton, who has been giving several interviews prior to the June 23 release of his book, said on the American show "60 Minutes," that losing his daughters love was what scared him the most as he admitted to the Monica Lewinsky affair.

"I was afraid that I would lose my daughter's love and respect. You know, my daughter is a remarkable person. But sooner or later, every child learns that his or her parents are not perfect. But this was way beyond that, and it was a big dose to swallow," he said.

Clinton also revealed that lying to his wife was even more painful because she had implicit faith in him. He also said that the night he finally came clean about the affair was the worst in his life.

The report also quoted Clinton as saying that he hated the nick name Slick Willie and that, saying that he had been unable to inhale when asked if he had ever smoked pot had been an inappropriate choice of words, which he now regrets. (ANI)

The headline editor had an agenda when that one slipped through.

Had he been so concerned about his fatherly relationship, then it should have compelled him to zip it and refrain.

Does he really believe that his biggest crime was adultery, not, as president, attempting to fix a civil rights case and deny an ordinary American a fair trial? Not likely. He probably knows that Chelsea is not bright enough to lose respect for him for his most important transgressions.

"Oh Puh-leez....Clinton is a narcissistic sociopath. Or is that statement redundant...from the department of redundancy department."


This book would be a great abnormal psychology text. You could spend years studying the delusions, rationalizations, and obvious falsehoods. What a tormented psyche.

I would have expected much more dirt to have come out about him.

Seems like coming out against Clinton in court causes much more dirt to be shoveled over your coffin quicker.

Just when I'm ready to reply with a "Who Cares?" to X42's nonsense, a thread like this will generate 200 responses.

I have no intention of contributing any of those responses.....

Oh, dang......

What would Chelsea say if he admitted rape to her?

Make that Janet Reno's daughter. Reno is a guy in drag.

Can he prove that Chelsea actually is his daughter? I'd like to have the DNA evidence checked. Take a look at Chelsea's lower jaw and then check that of Webb Hubbell, one of Hillie's close partners at Rose Law Firm and note the striking resemblance. Why wouldn't Chelsea love Slick Willie, he took her on at least two $25 million vacations a year.

I think her nose is proof enough. There is quite alot of resemblance between the impeached rapist and his spawn.

"Why should he care about losing the love of Vince Foster's kid?"

No more photo ops. He'd lose one of his "family values" props.

That is entirely untrue. His greatest fear while he defiled the highest office in the land was, the American people finding out that his wife was the one doing damage control,orchestrating his entire "Public" defense (TV,Newspapers etc.)for the last 3 years from her own West-Wing office. (That she also FYI so boldly took from algore.)
