She Knew. Everyone Knew.

The media are reporting today that in her new book, Living History, Hillary Clinton claims she believed Bill's denials of an affair with Monica Lewinsky for some six months. Not until the weekend before his August 17, 1998, grand-jury testimony, when he confessed to her, did she accept the truth.

I could hardly breathe. Gulping for air, I started crying and yelling at him, 'What do you mean? What are you saying? Why did you lie to me? I was furious and getting more so by the second. He just stood there saying over and over again, "I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. I was trying to protect you and Chelsea."

It was once said of Hillary that she was one of the 100 smartest lawyers in America. Can she actually be this dumb? I think not. This is just the latest in her unending line of deceptions. Everyone knows that Bill Clinton is a serial philanderer — at best. In fact, here's some of what Hillary — and the rest of the world — knew about Bill before her husband's August 15, 1998, confession.

"Yes, I was Bill Clinton's lover for 12 years." [I lied] "to protect him....The truth is I loved him. Now he tells me to deny it. Well, I'm sick of all the deceits, and I'm sick of all the lies."

Paula Jones: excerpts from May 6, 1994, complaint in Jones vs. Clinton & Ferguson

Count 20. "[After being escorted to a hotel suite where she was left alone with then-Governor Clinton, Clinton said to Jones] 'I love the way your hair flows down your back' and 'I love your curves.' While saying these things, Clinton put his hand on Plaintiff's leg and started sliding it toward the hem of Plaintiff's culottes. Clinton also bent down to attempt to kiss Jones on the neck."

Count 21. "Jones exclaimed, 'What are you doing?' and escaped from Clinton's physical proximity by walking away from him. Jones tried to distract Clinton by chatting with him about his wife. Jones later took a seat at the end of the sofa nearest the door. Clinton asked Jones: 'Are you married?' She responded that she had a regular boyfriend. Clinton then approached the sofa and as he sat down he lowered his trousers and underwear exposing his erect penis and asked Jones to 'kiss it.'

"Then [Bill Clinton] kissed me on my mouth and pulled me closer to him. And ... I remember thinking...'what in the world is he doing?' he touched my breasts with his hand ... and he whispered ... 'I've wanted to do this ever since I laid eyes on you.' And ... then he took my hand, and he put it on him. And, that's when I pushed away from him and ... decided it was time to get out of there."

"... When I think back on it, it was kind of like I was watching it in slow motion ... And, at the same time ... I thought, 'Well, maybe I ought to just give him a good slap across the face.' And then I thought, 'Well, I don't think you can slap the President of the United States."'

Hillary knew then, and she knows now, that Bill's a satyr. Indeed, Hillary was Bill's top damage-control strategist. It will be interesting to see if Hillary's book makes it into the fiction section of the nation's bookstores, where it belongs.

Arkansas State Trooper Buddy Young states that in 1983, he drove Clinton and the black women to his mother's home near Hot Springs for a sex orgy. Clinton's mother was conveniently out-of-town

Clinton has had several black mistresses. One is Lencola Sullivan, "Miss Arkansas" of 1981. Former Clinton aide Larry Nichols says that Clinton was so attracted to her that he traveled to New York at state expense on three occasions to date Lencola.

Arkansas State Troopers, Larry Patterson and Roger Perry state that Clinton was always very careful not to allow any photos to be taken with women and never sent them any notes. However, he did have long conversations over the phone with such girl friends as TV talk show host Sally Perdue and Gennifer Flowers. Clinton carried on a 13 year affair with Flowers. She taped two of them which are very personal. You can hear Clinton's voice calling her, "sweet darling" and "baby."

Both troopers Patterson and Perry say that the marriage has been a sham for years. Patterson writes:

"They have only one thing in common - a dislike of each other. They are two people bound together in a common cause - political power - while acting out a charade of a loving marriage. The arguments are bitter and frequent, with almost daily snarling confrontations."

Patterson recalls how they used to leave the mansion each day in the same car and ignore each other until they emerged before the cameras hand-in-hand and smiling fondly. However, Patterson says that Hillary knew about Bill's many affairs beginning back in 1978. This is confirmed by Gennifer Flowers who said,

"Bill had told me for years that the marriage was a dead duck. I guess he was tied to her for political reasons. And she knew about me. She damn well knew. She knew everthing."

Following a report in the Little Rock Democrat-Gazette in early November, 1992, about our intention to publish the Hillary Clinton Quarterly, we received a phone call from a man who said he had proof that Hillary Clinton had "as many affairs as Bill Clinton."

The man’s name was Larry Case. He described himself as a retired private investigator with connections to those friendly folks who brought us the Gennifer Flowers affair. Larry Case shared some amazing information with us. Hillary, he said, "was involved with several lawyers at the law firm," while half of Hillary’s friends "were having affairs with Bill."

Case specifically mentioned someone named Barret Hamilton, Junior. "They had an affair. The state police found pictures of him and Hillary." Our would-be Little Rock informant also said that he could put us in touch with railroad workers who would testify that they had slept with Hillary Clinton.

We were just a little bit curious: why hadn't these allegations about the soon-to-be First Lady been reported before? Case said they thought they had enough dirt to discredit Bill Clinton. "We didn’t feel she was a factor, so nobody reported on her," he told us.

We thanked Case for calling and went back to working on other stories for the premier issue of HCQ. A few days later, however, we received another phone call from Little Rock, this time from someone named Larry Nichols. Larry #2 told us that Larry #1 had suggested he call. Larry #2 had worked for Clinton at the Arkansas Development and Finance Authority. His story was pretty much what we heard from Larry #1. Mrs. Clinton, Nichols told us, was "dating a Mr. Dennison at the Rose Law Firm." Nichols explained that "Hillary and Bill have what you’d call an open relationship." Why, we asked Larry #2, did these stories never appear before? No one would dare say anything negative about the Clintons, he told us. "This state is so zipped up," was how he described it.

The two phone calls — one from Larry Case, the other from Larry Nichols — were our first glimpses at the sordid underbelly of American politics.

Larry Case: Clinton made all these offers to me, and he made them through other people, and he made them to me directly at the mansion, that I was going to be the head of the "ABC," if I would take care of some problem he had.

CASE: Alcohol Beverage Control. So therefore that offer was made to me in the presence of (Goodwin), the colonel of the Arkansas State Police and the director of finance and administration. We were all at the same meeting at the governor’s mansion at 7:30 a.m. in the morning. The meeting was called the day before and I didn’t know it until that night, and I had no idea Goodwin was going to be there. He told me he didn’t know he was going to be there. These offers had been made to me. That’s my personal situation.

CASE: I’m a retired P.I., you know, but I was virtually forced out of the P.I. business, but I was going to leave anyway because I had so many offers. Once they tried to discredit me, as they’re doing to these state troopers. You’re gonna watch these state troopers take a fall. You just mark my words, these troopers are on their way down.

HCQ: How do you account for the fact that the AP had talked to a number of these women, that they all denied it or just refused to comment?

CASE: That was all planned. The local AP here is a joke, and I will tell the chief of the local bureau that myself. I sent him tape recordings of prostitutes that I had interviewed on the telephone and never met in my life and they gave me detailed descriptions of Clinton and, you know, everything. I gave him copies of those tapes.

CASE: Bill Simmons, chief of the bureau of the Associated Press here in Little Rock. He is an avid Clinton fan. And he either destroyed them or misplaced them or sent them back to me with a letter, which I have from him, saying that he was sorry that they got messed up in his tape machine. Now that’s what I received back on more than two occasions.

You said about Hillary Clinton: "She had as many affairs as Bill Clinton."

CASE: That’s the information that people were giving to me, which I never even looked into. I got one man right now, I just left him, talking about a lesbian affair that she had. You know that Vince Foster was supposed to be her boyfriend.

HCQ: Yeah, I heard rumors about that. You had also mentioned someone named Barret Hamilton.

CASE: Yeah. Junior.

HCQ: Right.

CASE: Now my understanding is that when he died they cleaned out all the photographs at his condo in Colorado and here, too, of when he was with Hillary. Now that’s my understanding.

HCQ: That could only come from the state police.

HCQ: As far as Mrs. Clinton is concerned, the only place where she comes into the picture is when she had this argument with her husband.

CASE: Yes. Now he does have a temper. Larry Patterson acknowledged on CNN the other night that he had taken a girl to see Clinton off when he left for Washington. Hillary ran up to Larry and said "I know what she’s doing here and you better get that whore out of here." I’m under the impression that that was Suzy W—, Suzy being the one that they alleged had his baby here, that worked in the governor’s office. I can tell you this that as of last night she is on a week’s vacation and she has been transfered to Bill Clinton’s Little Rock presidential office.

HCQ: What do your instincts tell you about Foster and Hillary?

CASE: Vince Foster? Everyone around here says they were boyfriend-girlfriend. That’s what everybody tells me, I’m talking about in the legal profession.

HCQ: You have obviously some instincts as an investigator. Do you think there’s something to that?

CASE: I know there is. If I wanted to look into it, I’d know where I’d go.

HCQ: So you think these two troopers, Perry and Patter-son, are telling the truth?

CASE: I can tell you they’re telling the truth.

HCQ: And the White House is just trying to keep this quiet?

CASE: Yeah, and the director of the Arkansas state police, who was here while Clinton was, and is still here, may talk soon, because I understand he’s fixing to leave the agency. He’s got enough time — hell, he’s retired two or three times.

HCQ: That’s Goodwin?

CASE: Yeah, Goodwin. Now he’s trying to hold his force intact out there. I think he’s being forced to lie. Now Goodwin doesn’t like to lie. He does not like to lie.

HCQ: You don’t doubt that Bill Clinton himself actually called these troopers. The White House said that.

CASE: He did call them. Now he had called Mark Allen, another former guard. He made numerous calls to Buddy Young. I don’t know if he acknowledged it yet. Buddy Young was his right-hand man.

HCQ: How come they didn’t make you an offer like that?

CASE: They made me an offer and then they tried to run me with it.

HCQ: That was the ABC?

CASE: ABC.

CASE: The initial information that I had about Hamilton I supplied many months ago to Bill Rempel.

CASE: The stories that I gave him were "girlie" stories. The stories that I talked to him about — you know the stuff that he could back up or substantiate — the biggest part of the time he had called them himself, and he had talked to them, and he had got the same response out of them that I had. This was back early on.

HCQ: Response from whom? Troopers?

CASE: No, girls. . . girls that he interviewed, that I interviewed. And there were recordings of my interviews with girls that I supplied to him. And he has them in his stockpile out there. He has recordings and stuff of girls that I interviewed that had been with Bill Clinton. Let me also tell you this. The only way that I knew how to get ahold of one of them was through Bill Rempel. He told me how to get ahold of them. He has sat on stories out there involving Bill Clinton and . . .

HCQ: Why?

CASE: I have no idea. . . . Because, I guess, it’s not their type of story. Additionally, the information I supplied to him, yes it was, it had all to do with, you know, women and stuff like that.

HCQ: What about the state troopers in the American Spectator story? They talked about a party at which Vince Foster and Hillary Clinton displayed some affection towards each other. Do you know anything about that? Is there anything, any shred of evidence that substantiates the rumor that Hillary and Vince Foster were more than professional associates?

CASE: All that I have in regards to that is people telling me, that knew them both closely, and which I did record, the people that I talked to, and the attorneys involved that I talked to. I had many people call me and tell me. As far as physically seeing them, no, I did not see them.

HCQ: You have recordings of people? Where? From the Rose Law Firm?

CASE: From the Rose Law Firm and from Wright, Lindsey and Jennings.

HCQ: You mentioned that your tapes of people talking about Hillary might be subpoenaed?

CASE: I would assume.

HCQ: Why do you assume that?

CASE: From what I’ve read here, locally, they’re going to look at the Vince Foster -- Hillary connection and there’s a couple of people know I have the tapes.

HCQ: That’s just tapes of other people repeating the rumors. Did you have any contact with the Park police?

CASE: Yes, I did.

HCQ: What was that all about?

CASE: That was about some recordings. I talked to Captain Hume.

HCQ: Those were just, what, conversations?

CASE: Yeah.
