...Lewinsky tapes show that when it comes to intimacy, the infamously reckless Clinton is a play-it-safe puritan. Facetiously referring to herself as the future "special assistant to the President for b___ j___," Lewinsky reportedly told Linda Tripp that Clinton was strict about limiting their contact to oral sex.
