LISTEN? TRY EXPLAINING AWAY THIS BOMBSHELL / Marsha Scott
NEW YORK POST January 27, 1998 STEVE DUNLEAVY
THE commander-in-chief gives us an order from the Roosevelt Room: "I want you to listen."
Well, he should have listened to Rebecca Borders, whose scathing article in the American Spectator last year poured gasoline on the White House fire.
Borders dropped another bombshell from the lips of David Watkins, a boyhood friend of Clinton who got bounced from office after Clinton found him expendable.
Watkins says in the story that the death of Vincent Foster "did not seem to have left Bill in a somber mood at all."
"One reason, Watkins suggests, might be that Clinton was involved in another of his extramarital affairs."
On the day of Foster's funeral, Watkins' wife, Ilene, heard an amazing confession, it is reported.
Marsha Scott, a top White House aide, reportedly boasted to Ilene that she was having an affair with Bill Clinton.
"Why she would have blurted out the news of their affair to Ilene remains a mystery," Borders writes. "But, apparently, she was not shy about her adultery."
According to the Spectator, another White House senior staffer has confirmed the relationship between Scott and Clinton.
Ilene Watkins is quoted as saying: "Marsha is pretty pumped up about the whole thing, and she's bragging about it ...... "She told me: "I spent the whole night with Bill in bed '...... "...... I had my head on his lap and we reminisced all night long. I'm wearing the same clothes as yesterday, and I'm going to have to wear them again today.'"
Marsha Scott had dated Clinton in the '60s, when both were working for Sen. William Fulbright.
OK, let's get ready for another round of denials, although it might be hard to explain why White House logs have Marsha entering the White House second-floor residence at 12:50 a.m. on a particular date.
Now, I was quite prepared to listen to the president yesterday as he ordered us to listen. But his story was over in a split second.
When will he be asked to explain his "special personal relationship" with a kid intern named Monica Lewinsky? When can we ask him about Marsha Scott? When can we grill him about Paula Jones? When can we confront him with the conning of the American public in the Gennifer Flowers case?
Now, there is good news for Clinton supporters with his denial of having a sexual relationship with Monica.
While you and I believe sex with any one else other than your spouse is a clear-cut case of adultery, Bill didn't tell a lie.
If he believes oral sex is not adultery, then what he did with Monica was not a sexual relationship.
But what of Marsha Scott? Was that also a non-adulterous relationship, if the Spectator story is true?
This whole thing is getting tiresome because the less the president speaks, the more other people talk. Let's get all of them in a big courthouse, maybe a stadium because of the numbers.
Get Monica, Marsha, Paula, Gennifer, Johnny Huang, Charlie Trie, all the former employers of the travel office, anyone who had anything to do with the investigation of the death of Vincent Foster and all the Secret Service staff. Hook them all up to lie detectors, together with Bill and Hill, so the world will know at last that every scandal was just a nasty Republican plot engineered by pathological liars.
Yeah, let's do that.
