"You had a disadvantage living abroad. You did not see the number of senseless lies that could not even be defended as being motivated by reasons of state that Clinton spewed."

Not relevant, the media here covered Clinton's lies quite well.
What is relevant is that Clinton was finally caught in and punished for a lie which most men would tell when side stepping. It is a sad commentary on a system which claims to be fair.

I still maintain that lying is a prerequisite for American politicians and that, generally, American politicians are liars.

As to first class liars , Nixon was one of the better, but got caught, and Reagan managed to get away with Irangate.
