PAPER: HILLARY GENUINELY BELIEVED PRESIDENT'S LIES

First lady Hillary Rodham Clinton believed her husband's protestations of innocence in the Monica Lewinsky mess and was genuinely stunned when he finally confessed the truth to her in mid-August, only a few days before he told the rest of the nation, according to a report in Thursday's LOS ANGELES TIMES.

The paper's Washington bureau chief Doyle McManus runs with the story in a planned Page One, Above the Fold spread.

"The list of people betrayed in this affair starts and stops with her," one Hillary Clinton friend, who spoke to the TIMES on condition of anonymity, explained. "She has been more loyal than he deserves."

McManus report: "First lady Hillary Rodham Clinton told associates that her husband assured her in January he was not having an affair with former intern Monica S. Lewinsky, but was merely 'ministering to a troubled young person,' several friends said Wednesday.

"The president apparently offered that cover story to explain his friendship with Lewinsky to his wife when the issue surfaced in public on Jan. 21, and Mrs. Clinton accepted the explanation."

One Hillary pal tells the TIMES: "He lied to her. He told her a whopper, and she believed it."
