Bill Clinton had 'mentality of an 18-year-old' regarding sex, NPR reporter who covered Bubba says

President Clinton was one of the savviest politicians to occupy the White House, but when it came to sex he had "the mentality of an 18-year-old."
That blunt assessment came not from the Republicans who got Clinton impeached for lying about having sex with Monica Lewinsky, but from an NPR reporter named Nina Totenberg who covered the President's most inglorious moments.
It appears in "A Complicated Man: The Life of Bill Clinton as Told by Those Who Know Him" by Michael Takiff, a new biography that churns up sordid stories the 42nd President many would just as soon forget.
In Totenberg's opinion, it was Clinton's inability to face his wife, Hillary Clinton, that led him to make that fateful lie during a deposition.
When asked about Lewinsky, he should have immediately told his lawyer they had the goods on him and perhaps reached some kind of settlement, Totenberg said.
Clinton didn't. And the rest was, in a word, history.

That's like English, only different.
That’s an insult to the average 18-year-old.
That's a slander! A pernicious Libel! To every 18 year who ever lived!

Doesn’t that describe most men? :)
I never have cared who or what the numbskull Clinton was doing whatever with in the Whitehouse, but I’ve never understood how such a large part of the public could totally ignore perjury and go along with the crap about, “it’s all about sex”. I mean, Gawd, there were so many cases where there was nothing to go on except the honesty of the C-in-C and here the guy is lying just to avoid his old lady. How is that not extremely revealing about how honest he really is on any other subject?
An 18-year-old mentality regarding sex? Unfortunately this is not very unusual. I know a lot of men who don’t develop even that far. Moreover I doubt Mother Nature intended them to go farther.
(Our Father in heaven being a whole different matter.)
18 year old? Don’t they mean, “18 month old?”
No.
That's because you weren't.
And bootlicks like Nina Totenburg didn't help to bring that out.
Beware - this site (NY Daily News) is a TYNT JERK
So she’s saying that 18 year olds are predators and rapists?
“(Republicans) thought the Clintons were “wizards who had somehow enchanted America out of its moral moorings,” said Rep. Barney Frank (D-Mass.).”
WTH does Frank know about moral moorings?!
No - its more like an 81-year-old: Hugh Hefner.
***President Clinton was one of the savviest politicians to occupy the White House, but...****
Ridiculous!!
The savvy one was/is and will always be Hilary.
Ernestine the telephone operator, after she got into "journalism". Insufferable snob.
