<<Disagree. IMO, a more realistic hope is to have ministers who prefer to tell the truth and will not lie needlessly or for mere self-promotion. There are real reasons of security or diplomacy which will cause ministers to lie; and in matters of intelligence, they may well be sincerely mistaken. Not every thing that turns out to be untrue is a lie.>>

You guys are really having to dig hard to try and justify this whole "tempest in a teapot"!! LOL.

Wow, not only must you be a lawyer....you must have been a Clinton staffer also!!

It's amusing to see the same people who were screaming for the head of the previous administration's impeachment on grounds of plagiarism, compromising the same value in order to justify this current administration's actions.
