Clinton autobiography to undergo title change
Satire
Bill Clinton's autobiography, "My Life" is due to undergo a title change for its second printing. The new title? "Because I Could: Politics and Sex in the White House." According to the book's publisher, Morris Wilton, there has been significant journalistic mileage behind Clinton's assertion that his affair with former intern, Monica L. (name withheld to protect the innocent) was simply, "Because I Could." "We need to do better than simply justify a ten-million dollar book signing, we need to sell books," said Wilton, "and this title change will accomplish that feat and bring in the casual reader who may be interested in reliving the whole blue dress and cigar scenario. Besides, the current title sounds like that of a high school blogger who hasn't quite learned that their quest for a prom date is wholly uninteresting."
