>> lie is an utterance of falsehood with the intent to deceive. Not so. Merriam-Webster dictionary also defines it as: Main Entry: 4lie Function: noun Etymology: Middle English lige, lie, from Old English lyge; akin to Old High German lugI, Old English lEogan to lie 1 a : an assertion of something known or believed by the speaker to be untrue with intent to deceive b : an untrue or inaccurate statement that may or may not be believed true by the speaker 2 : something that misleads or deceives Since intent cannot be proven, I don't find it relevant. Furthermore, it is very unlikely that Bush was unaware that most of the tax cuts did NOT go to the poor and middle class. [edit and you guys fault Clinton for saying "I am not having sex with that woman" which of course was true since he was in the court room and clothed <vbg>]
