Confession to wife was worst day in office - Clinton

克林頓:向妻子懺悔是我在白宮最糟糕的一天

Confession to wife was worst day in office - ClintonBill Clinton's worst day in office came when he admitted to his wife the affair with a White House intern that would threaten his marriage and his presidency, the US former president said in a television interview promoting his memoirs.

His confession to Hillary Clinton came two days before Clinton was to testify before a grand jury in August 1998 in an investigation that would lead to his impeachment, he said in an hour-long interview on CBS' "60 Minutes".

"I had a sleepless night and woke her up and sat down on the side of the bed and just told her. And it was awful," Clinton said. The interview was the first to air on television to promote the book "My Life."

"She looked at me as if I had punched her in the gut," Clinton wrote.

The renewed focus on the White House sex scandal may be starting to test Clinton's patience.

London's Sunday Telegraph reported that Clinton lost his temper when repeatedly asked about his affair during a BBC program to air on Tuesday.

The Telegraph quoted an unnamed BBC executive who saw the interview as saying Clinton "is visibly angry."

Clinton has kicked off afull-throttlepublicity campaign to sell his 957-page memoir, which goes on sale on Tuesday.

The launch includeshigh-profileinterviews, alavishbook party for a thousand guests in Manhattan on Monday and nonstop book signings and television appearances throughout the week.

While publisher Alfred A. Knopf has received more orders than the 1.5 million copies of the book's first printing, early reviews were tough on the former president's effort.

In a front-page review, The New York Times called it "sloppy, self-indulgent and ofteneye-crossinglydull -- the sound of one manprattling away."

"In many ways, the book is a mirror of Mr. Clinton's presidency: lack of discipline leading to squandered opportunities; high expectations, undermined by self-indulgence and scattered concentration," the Times wrote.

美國(guó)前總統(tǒng)比爾·克林頓在為他的回憶錄造勢(shì)的電視訪談中說(shuō),他在白宮最糟糕的日子是向妻子承認(rèn)他和一名白宮實(shí)習(xí)生的風(fēng)流韻事那天。此事威脅到他的婚姻和總統(tǒng)寶座。

克林頓接受了美國(guó)哥倫比亞廣播公司(CBS)“60分鐘”節(jié)目的采訪,在長(zhǎng)達(dá)一個(gè)小時(shí)的節(jié)目中,他說(shuō),1998年8月,他向妻子希拉里·克林頓承認(rèn)了自己的風(fēng)流韻事,此后兩天,他就在大陪審團(tuán)面前為彈劾他的調(diào)查作證。

克林頓說(shuō):“那是一個(gè)不眠之夜,我叫醒她,坐在床邊向她坦白,感覺(jué)太糟糕了”。此次采訪是克林頓第一次通過(guò)電視向公眾宣傳他的新書(shū)《我的生活》。

克林頓寫(xiě)道:“她看著我,仿佛已經(jīng)肝腸寸斷?!?/p>

對(duì)白宮性丑聞的再次關(guān)注開(kāi)始考驗(yàn)克林頓的耐性。

倫敦《星期日電訊報(bào)》的報(bào)道稱(chēng),在星期二播出的BBC的節(jié)目中,當(dāng)克林頓被反復(fù)問(wèn)起他的丑聞時(shí),他開(kāi)始“發(fā)脾氣”。

《星期日電訊報(bào)》援引一位未透露姓名的看過(guò)采訪的BBC主管的話(huà)說(shuō),克林頓顯然很生氣。

克林頓已經(jīng)啟動(dòng)了全面的宣傳推廣活動(dòng),他957頁(yè)的回憶錄即將在周二上架。

推廣活動(dòng)包括倍受矚目的訪談,周一在曼哈頓為一千名貴賓舉行的豪華新書(shū)會(huì),以及整周馬不停蹄的新書(shū)簽售和電視采訪。

出版商艾爾弗雷德·A·諾普夫接到的訂單已經(jīng)超過(guò)首次印刷的150萬(wàn)冊(cè),而早期評(píng)論對(duì)這位前總統(tǒng)的努力卻是苛刻的。

《紐約時(shí)報(bào)》的頭版評(píng)論稱(chēng)此書(shū)“粗制濫造,自我放縱,無(wú)聊得讓人昏昏欲睡——簡(jiǎn)直是一個(gè)男人在胡言亂語(yǔ)”。

《泰晤士報(bào)》報(bào)道說(shuō):“這本書(shū)在很多地方都反映出克林頓的總統(tǒng)生涯:缺乏紀(jì)律以致于白白浪費(fèi)機(jī)會(huì);期望值很高,而由于自我放縱和三心二意卻無(wú)法實(shí)現(xiàn)?!?/p>

full-throttle:全面的 (at full throttle:全速地,開(kāi)足馬力)
high-profile:倍受關(guān)注的
lavish:豪華的
eye-crossingly dull:無(wú)聊得睜不開(kāi)眼(cross one's eyes:半閉著眼睛)
prattle away:胡言亂語(yǔ)
