<< Your missing the point - deliberately, I should add. >>

But, I wasn't under oath! <g>

<< There is a clear difference between public statements and perjury. >>

You mean that there is a clear difference between public "lies" and perjury. But, then again, you did that deliberately.

Buts.............. There is a very complex cloud hanging over the perjury law. Why do you think that the greatest minds in this country are debated whether or not Clinton committed perjury? They are right now debating that same issue in the Impeachment Hearings.

<< Lying under oath carries with it a penalty as meted out by the judiciary. >>

But, not impeachment.

Clinton lied under oath. Of this I have no doubt. But, they will never be able to prove perjury. If you don't like the perjury laws, petition your congressman to change the law.

This issue has been beaten to death, but I will state this once more.

Most people do not like what Clinton did, or the fact that he got caught, but they are willing to forgive his little youthful indiscretion, and want the country to focus on more important issues.
