I am sure that you have or will see this part of the Starr report but here is the kicker for me and I am not wasting anymore time reading this deal. IMHO this nails it down, it is all over but the crying and White House Rebuttal is the biggest smoke screen scam I have ever heard of. $40,000,000.00 is a steal for this.
On January 17, 1998, Ms.ÿJones's lawyers deposed President Clinton under oath with Judge Wright present and presiding over the deposition. Federal law requires a witness testifying under oath to provide truthful answers. The intentional failure to provide truthful answers is a crime punishable by imprisonment <--------- OH MY ! ! !
YOU MEAN AN APOLOGY WONT COVER IT?
and fine. <------------- :o) OOOOOOOOH, GUESS WE GOING TO NEED MORE FUNDRAISERS. At the outset of his deposition, the President took an oath administered by Judge Wright: "Do you swear or affirm .ÿ.ÿ. that the testimony you are about to give in the matter before the court is the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, so help you God?" The President replied: "I do." <--------------------- BIG TIME MISTAKE.
I DO BELIEVE WE WILL SEE HIM ALONG SIDE JIMMY CARTER BUILDING A HABITAT FOR HUMANITY HOUSE IN THE NOT TO DISTANT FUTURE.
--------- the article continues and I won't interupt again.
A. Evidence that President Clinton Lied Under Oath During the Civil Case
1. President Clinton's Statements Under Oath About Monica Lewinsky
During pretrial discovery, Paula Jones's attorneys served the President with written interrogatories.(6) One stated in relevant part:
Please state the name, address, and telephone number of each and every [federal employee] with whom you had sexual relations when you [were] .ÿ.ÿ. President of the United States.(7)
The interrogatory did not define the term "sexual relations." Judge Wright ordered the President to answer the interrogatory, and on December 23, 1997, under penalty of perjury, President Clinton answered "None."(8)
At the January 17, 1998, deposition of the President, Ms.ÿJones's attorneys asked the President specific questions about possible sexual activity with Monica Lewinsky. The attorneys used various terms in their questions, including "sexual affair," "sexual relationship," and "sexual relations." The terms "sexual affair" and "sexual relationship" were not specially defined by Ms.ÿJones's attorneys. The term "sexual relations" was defined:
For the purposes of this deposition, a person engages in "sexual relations" when the person knowingly engages in or causes .ÿ.ÿ. contact with the genitalia, anus, groin, breast, inner thigh, or buttocks of any person with an intent to arouse or gratify the sexual desire of any person.ÿ.ÿ.ÿ. "Contact" means intentional touching, either directly or through clothing.(9)
President Clinton answered a series of questions about Ms.ÿLewinsky, including:
Q: Did you have an extramarital sexual affair with Monica Lewinsky?
WJC: No.
Q: If she told someone that she had a sexual affair with you beginning in November of 1995, would that be a lie?
WJC: It's certainly not the truth. It would not be the truth.
Q: I think I used the term "sexual affair." And so the record is completely clear, have you ever had sexual relations with Monica Lewinsky, as that term is defined in Deposition Exhibit 1, as modified by the Court?
Mr.ÿBennett:(10)
I object because I don't know that he can remember --
Judge Wright:
Well, it's real short. He can -- I will permit the question and you may show the witness definition number one.
WJC: I have never had sexual relations with Monica Lewinsky. I've never had an affair with her.(11)
President Clinton reiterated his denial under questioning by his own attorney:
