If we really believe that lying under oath is not an impeachable offense because of the "subject matter", sexual harassment, then we should be honest enough to recognize that as a culture we give no real credence to the legal concept of sexual harassment as actionable offense and should change our laws regarding same.

I made this point months ago and I've seen no mention of it here or in the press. The conclusion you have to come to is the public doesn't take the sexual harassment laws seriously or at least thinks they've gone way overboard.

I doubt the law will come into conformity with public opinion though since harassment is such a lucrative line of business for the trial lawyers - one of the top special interest groups in the country and now more powerful then ever with the billions they've absorbed from the rape of the tobacco companies.
