An extract from Hillary Clinton's autobiography, 'The Truth Will Always Prevail', which is due to be released soon.
"Some years ago, nearing dinner time at the White House, our regular cook fell ill and they had to get a replacement on short notice. He wasn't the smartest looking guy, in fact he seemed a bit unkempt.
Bill voiced his concerns to his Chief of Staff but was told that this was the best they could do on such short notice.
Just before the meal, Bill noticed the cook sticking his finger in the soup to taste it, Bill again complained to the Chief Of Staff, but he was assured that many Chefs did that.
Dinner went okay, although Bill thought that the soup tasted a little funny. By the time dessert came, he started to have stomach cramps and nausea. It was getting worse and worse until finally the President had to excuse himself.
By now, he was desperately ill with violent cramps and was so disorientated that he couldn't remember which door led to the bathroom. He was on the verge of passing out from the pain when he finally found a door that opened.
As he unzipped his trousers and ran in, he realised to his horror that he had stumbled into Monica Lewinsky's office with his trousers around his knees.
As he was about to pass out, this naive girl bent over him and heard President Clinton whisper in a barely audible voice: "Sack my cook."
And that is how the whole unfortunate misunderstanding occurred."
