Sigh. Slick Willy nailed himself. He is one of those people who lie even when it's not in their best interests. I don't mind people lying to me, maybe you can tell that. I expect people to lie, and am pleasantly surprised when they tell the truth. Judges, on the other hand, hate it when people lie to them. Judges are very judgmental, that's why they become judges. They LIKE judging. Clinton, although a lawyer, never actually saw the inside of a courtroom, so thought he could snow everybody, just as he did all his life. Peck's bad boy. Mama's adorable rascal. Actually, I do hate it when people lie under oath, that does tick me off. Shading the truth I can tolerate. Flat out bold faced lying on the witness stand makes me extremely angry. It subverts the justice system, and justice is extremely important to all of us, not just me. He lied to win a lawsuit, which makes him a turd in my book.

We know the desperation to nail Slick Willy to the wall, on something, anything. True. But there were reasons for this. I won't mention them since I presume you know them. They were a huge range of peccadillos that extended from draft dodging to perjury and, in Hillary's case, bribes masquerading as options trading. Some were legal, some were criminal. If the mass and extent of their transgressions are put in a balance, one is left with the inescapable notion that Billary, though brilliant politically, is a self-serving, self-interested and morally bankrupt entity. The payback was justified. It was ultimately fair that they suffer for their transgressions. The kind of life Billary lead(s) does not come without a price. When he was caught with Monica, he should have known better than anyone that he would suffer politically. Incredibly, he all but invited the retribution by taking insane risks. He has a screw loose; I still am not sure about her.
