Clinton Regrets Not Using Sprint
Former President Bill Clinton admitted for the first time in an interview this week that he was sorry he had not switched the White House cell phones to Sprint before leaving office. Clinton claimed that static was responsible for several of the scandals which occurred during his eight years in power.
"It was like this, see. One of my aides called me up on my cell phone on my last day in office and asked if I wanted to âpardon Rich.â I thought he wanted to know if I wanted a âham sandwich.â I said sure Iâd like a ham sandwich⦠Yeah, thatâs the ticket," recalled the former commander in chief.
According to Clinton, confusion caused by a faulty mobile telephone connection also occurred in 1998, during the height of the scandal involving intern Monica Lewinsky. Asked over a cell phone conversation whether he had sex with that woman, Clinton vehemently denied the charge: "I never under any circumstances tried to perplex a Belgian."
Clinton covered issues that sit atop the current political agenda as well during his recent interview. When questioned whether he would be prepared to âgo to war with Iraqâ if he were still in office, Clinton said that sure he would love to âgo have a cigar out back.â
