Bill's Self-Portrait

摘要

If bill clinton had to pick a defin-ing moment that says more about him than any other, it probably wouldn't be the afternoon he was sworn in as president after a long, uphill campaign. Or even the morning when he finally confessed to his wife and daughter that he had been lying all along about his affair with Monica Lewinsky. Instead, it might be the night young Clinton brandished a golf club at his drunken stepfather, who was beating Clinton's mother. "Daddy," as Clinton called him, was an alcoholic given to rages.
