Clinton red-faced over sax-life
03/12/2002 - 17:54:48



A pronunciation error by his interpreter made former US President Bill Clinton blush during a cocktail party with Mexican business leaders.

“How is your golf?”, asked one of the guests at the party in Monterrey, and Clinton replied “not very well”.

“How is your s-x?” was the next query, but, given the Mexican interpreter’s accent, it wasn’t clear whether the word had an a or an e in the middle.

Clinton, an amateur saxophone player notorious for his White House affair with Monica Lewinsky, blushed.

“I beg your pardon?”, he asked, taken aback.

Once it was made clear the interviewer simply wanted to know about Clinton’s musical ability, laughter took over.

Clinton said his sax playing was as bad as his golf.

This coming from a guy who claims to shoot in the low 80s! LOL. I bet his sex playing is even worse.

" Clinton said his sax playing was as bad as his golf."

Three strikes against the impeached one. Sex, like the sax, seems to be a solo instrument for his bentness.

And he could have given the exact same response about his sex playing

They seem to really like Clinton over there in Ireland. I'd been thinking about vacationing there this summer, but I'm not so sure now.

Since he blushed, the only piece he must be getting must be the bathroom sink.

No, that was just acne rosacea. Clinton doesn't know how to blush.

I shoot in the low seventies.

If it gets any warmer than that, I pack up and go home.

ya know... if this were any other president, (except JFK) this kind of freudian slip would be funny!

Clinton red-faced? Naw. . .he was about to go off at the poor guy, you know, like he goes off at every reporter that challenges his demeted version of events. (Hmmm. . .perhaps "go off" is not the right word, but then again, probably IS the right word.)

We shot in the upper 40s the other day. It was autumn's last gasp and a bit nippy. My score? Never mind.

(except JFK)

Warren G. Harding was as bad. He seems to have had an illigimate child by Nan Britton, a woman 30 years his junior and may have had one by Carrie Phillips, a friend of his wife. His wife was similar to that of the bent one, who was the real power behind the President. Although she never became a Senator, she probably would have today. There were also fianancial and corruption scandals, including the archtypical "Teapot Dome". Some say his wife had him poisoned, or did the job herself.
