[1997] The Secret Life of Bill Clinton: The Unreported Stories These
days, it seems like everyone's a Friend of Bill--Clinton's buddies from Arkansas
are turning up in powerful White House positions faster than you can say "Whitewater."
But make no mistake, British journalist Ambrose Evans-Pritchard is no F.O.B.: in
the course of The Secret Life of Bill Clinton's 350-plus pages, he manages to
connect the president to everything from 1997's Oklahoma City bombing to
Arkansas's drug underworld to the mysterious death of White House aide and
longtime Clinton friend Vince Foster, and, of course, to Paula Jones. According
to Evans-Pritchard--who has reported for the London-based Spectator, Sunday
Telegraph (where he served as Washington bureau chief), and Daily Telegraph
newspapers--Clinton's "original sin" was the Waco incident, the FBI's
much-criticized assault on the Branch Davidian community in Texas that led to
the deaths of 76 people. From that point on, the author asserts, it was all
downhill for the American people.
Evans-Pritchard's exposé of Arkansas's favorite son is indeed
scathing: he documents the then-governor's drug use and consort with prostitutes
(primarily in the company of ne'er-do-well brother Roger); innumerable lies to
friends, staff members, and the people who empowered him; numerous infidelities;
blackmail--the list goes on and on. Evans-Pritchard claims that, because he is
not an American citizen, he is not "beholden to any political or financial
interest in the United States," and he does not "hang on lips of official
sources," nor does he "fear the loss of access in Washington, or the blackball
of [his] profession"; in other words, he ain't afraid to call 'em like he sees 'em.
And although many of his seemingly wild claims and accusations are substantiated
by thorough notes and appendixes following the text (including copies of
original FBI documents), you're never quite convinced of the author's theories.
Whether or not you come to believe, as Evans-Pritchard does, that "Arkansas was
a mini-Colombia within the United States, infested by narco-corruption";
that--because of William Jefferson Clinton--"you can sniff the pungent odors of
decay in the American body politic"; that the president's "actions and character
... have engendered the most deadly terrorist movement in the industrialized
world," you will most certainly be entertained and enlightened by the dirt this
British muckraker has uncovered. You may not be an F.O.B., but after reading
this book, you may not mind so much.
