In-as-much as a Federal Appeals Court has ruled that these Clinton lies may have materially affected the original Jones Case, you may consider that "lies under oath" IS Perjury in this case. Lying under oath is NOT perjury when the lie isn't relevant to the outcome. Common sense shows most of usIMHO that his lies certainly were relevant to the outcome of the Jones case- in reality to the tune of 850,000 grand- funds that surely never would have been paid without the dress. And there is no such point to debate concerning the obstruction charge. People believe he's guilty.

But beyond that question, you say you know how at least one of these polls was phrased. Do you? Or is this just your presummption. The two references I saw on my Televison screen did NOT phrase it as you say. Perhaps you are correct. Are you? Have you seen it on the net? Post it. Best I could do without digging far was to provide you an excerpt from a post to me from a guy who had argued with me- called me a liar on this issue- then finally he heard it too and apologized to me. He was on YOUR side. It's pretty good corroboration.

My point is that with people believing the crimes are true- there is only so much flesh to hack from Starr and Republicans. Democrats will anger the public if they want to push this issue in the media in the next election IMHO. Unlike the Thomas case, the public believes the President is guilty. Like the Packwood case- the accusing women with their unproven charges are abundant.
