...could well involve testimony about Bill Clinton's genital area, with results made public. Plus, if lawyers on both sides produce even part of the dirt they have been digging for, it could include salacious allegations about the past sex lives of both the President and his accuser, Paula Corbin Jones. Whatever might be proved or disproved, both could come out with reputations so blackened as to make the question of who "won" irrelevant...

...more remarkable, though, than the idea that an unsophisticated, poorly educated and, initially, spectacularly ill-advised young woman could win a major Supreme Court case and put so much pressure on the White House. Paula Corbin, as she then was (she married Stephen Jones in December 1991), kept quiet for more than two years about what she says happened on May 8, 1991. She was afraid, she said, that nobody would believe her story--which was, essentially, that Clinton, who was then Governor, noticed her at a desk in the lobby of the Excelsior Hotel in Little Rock, where...

...places Clinton at the scene also says Jones emerged unshaken and hopeful of being the Governor's girlfriend. On the other side, six of her friends back her account. According to a TIME/CNN poll at the beginning of the year, 37% of the respondents believed Bill Clinton, 29% Paula Jones and 34% were not sure, which is unlikely to change. We've been building to this sexual peak for decades, through scandals concerning bold-type names from stage, screen and sports, Congressmen, Senators and presidential candidates. And now, live from the capital, it's the President. As the ultimate celebrity...

...winter, it's the cold that bothers me. No, it is sex, in and of itself, that occupies us, the lying being a collateral offense. A visitor from another planet reading the papers recently about First Lieut. Kelly Flinn, Marv Albert, Frank Gifford, Michael Kennedy and Paula Jones would think that our national pastime was not baseball but the Playboy channel. The day after the Supreme Court ruled that Paula Jones' lawsuit could go forward, the story led most major newspapers, above the announcement by Boris Yeltsin at the NATO summit that he would no longer target nuclear missiles...
