Hi Dwight E. Karlsen; I think that perjury about sex is okay, but only so long as you don't get caught. The only problem is that Clinton got caught.
Evidence seems to suggest that he attempted to bribe a witness. (What was the Revlon job offer? I read $90,000 per year somewhere. Is that the correct figure? I couldn't find it the figure in the Starr Lewinsky report.) I think bribery should be okay, too, provided you don't get caught.
I think it would be okay to influence a witness by scaring them a little, too. If they aren't giving you what you want, just kill their cat and knife the tires on their car. That will get the attention of a little woman living alone, particularly if you let them know why. No harm done, and if you don't get caught, why not? After all, she was only going to testify about your personal sex life, and that is none of the public's business.
These are all good techniques for getting witnesses to support your fiction. Why didn't Packwood, the Republican senator from Oregon, tough it out? He was shown the door after he was shown to be a serial groper. It seems to be a common problem with men in power, and if it is that common, we ought to make it legal. Women employees are the chattel of the boss, right? It seems to me rank ought to have some sort of privileges.
We should be happy our politicians have healthy libidos. Hitler was a weirdo. I bet he left the interns alone. And Reagan was too old...
