Hate to break it to you, but 1) Lying does not constitue perjury. It has to be material, as in relevant. 2) A consensual secret sexual affair between Clinton and Lewinsky was not material to an alleged non-consensual sexual harrassment of Jones by Clinton. Yes, this may be a technical legalistic answer, but so what? It's a technical legalistic accusation as well. Sex lies in court occur hundreds of thousands of times a year and never get prosecuted. Why? Because it's stupid. People inherently realize that people will lie about sex. To use the legal system to prosecute a sex lie is oppressive and more applicable to Iran's legal system than ours, whatever the law happens to be. I personally have witness two cases of clear perjury, one of which was provable beyond a reasonable doubt. Both of them were lies that went to the heart of the cases. Guess how many of them got prosecuted?
