Limbaugh was/is nothing but an entertainer.
Clinton was the POTUS.

One would think a higher standard
should apply to the latter.

What is amusing to me in this political
season is the constant barrage of
"liar liar pants on fire" allegations
floating around, and in particular,
emanating from the Left.

It would therefore appear that, in order
to be consistent, the detractors of both
Clinton and Bush should be in the same camp.
After all, the theme is the same. ("You lied".)

Funny how that isn't so.

What you usually hear is that Clinton's lies
dealt with sex and his private life.
Not the point, however.

The point was lying under oath, which is perjury.
That's why he was ultimately suspended from
the practice of law as well.

Remember what happened to Mark Furman after the
O.J. trial. He was prosecuted for perjury because
he lied about having used the "N" word.

It was, and is, my personal belief that that
prosecution should never have occurred because
I find it doubtful that whether Furman said that
word within the prior 10 years was really material
to the issues in the trial. (The crime of perjury requires
lies on material issues in the proceedings.)

In any case, Clinton's lies in the Jones matter
were material.

I've always said he should have hired me to
defend him. I could see that his lawyers were
taking the wrong approach in that matter.<g>( I've
defended lots of men in sex harassment cases.)

The minute I saw him wag his finger and
refer to Lewiniski as that woman,
I both knew he had had an affair with her
and that he was getting very bad advice.
