January 17, 2002 -- PASADENA - An emotional Monica Lewinsky choked back tears yesterday when asked about her role as national punch line - but said a healthy sense of humor has been her best defense.

Exactly four years after FBI agents first picked her up for questioning about her affair with President Bill Clinton, Lewinsky awkwardly struggled to keep her composure as she publicized an HBO documentary, "Monica in Black and White."

From an Atomica search on "Lewinsky":

Monica Lewinsky, intern

In 1995 Monica Lewinsky was a recent college graduate with a position as an intern in the White House. In January of 1998 the news broke that Linda Tripp, a former co-worker, had Monica on tape talking about an illicit affair between Lewinsky and president Bill Clinton. Eventually Lewinsky was granted immunity from prosecution, in exchange for detailed testimony of her liasons with Clinton, who, in public and under oath, had denied any sexual relationship. When Clinton was forced to admit an "inappropriate relationship," the House of Representatives impeached him. Lewinsky told her side in the 1999 book Monica's Story (written by Andrew Morton) and later started a new career as a handbag designer.

You mean undisclosed sums (probably in the six figure range) to do an interview on HBO?

It sure beats turning tricks on the street at $50 a pop!

She should have been more careful about what she put in her mouth.

I think craftsman is coming out with a new blower called the "The Lewinski". It also comes with a bag attachment so it can become a powerfull sucker as well.

She is NOT a " kid "; she is a 28 year old adult. She is going to be much more than a " tiny footnote ", no matter what she hopes for. If she didn't want to be nothing but a FAT, dirty joke, then she should have kept her mouth shut.

Monica, sweeters, you should have thought of that before you flashed your butt at Bill.

Bill Clinton really is 'Big Creep' personified. It really is so strange that she allowed herself to be victimized in that way. She ought to have been quite angry with Bubba,

On the other hand, if she had any real backbone, she would have sued him for sexual harassment.

Was she genuinely afraid of Bubba and Arkancide?

you realize very painfully that a vacuum is created . . . to be filled by people who have their own agenda," Lewinsky said.

From your lips to God's ear Monica.......

"She's not an actor, she's not a performer, she's a kid," said Sheila Nevins, HBO executive vice president of original programming.

Kid? She's 28 years old! There are real "kids" ten years younger fighting for our country, and we're supposed to feel sad that the First Fellater is still the butt of jokes?

Ah yes. In the long tradition of Thomas Crapper, William Lynch, the Marquis de Sade, et al., the "portly pepperpot" has added a common noun to the English language. "What did I see when I directed my flashlight through the car window? Why, a man getting a lewinsky!"

Her whole family was screwy.

Had it been me, my father would have been jailed for trying to kick Clinton's ass.

Further proof that actions have consequences, and some actions have negative consequences that last a lifetime. She's got a good sixty more years of living that lesson every day.
