if Clinton was willing to lie about something as mundane as oral sex, imagine what else he was willing to lie about. So, by projection and relativity, if bush is willing to lie about the rationale for a destructive war, he's capable of literally anything, right? Including cospiring to expose a member of OUR (his) own CIA to get even with her husband, or advocating a no litmus test for SCOTUS judges, while whispering otherwise to the religious right, or opportunistically supporting crackpot notions of intelligent design and passing it as science...or shamelessly dividing the country into two rancorous factions, which openly professing to be a uniting force, or providing slanted tax breaks while openly advocating that the "vast majority goes to people on the bottom"...and on and on...

Ted, Why does it matter to you what his motivation was? ... As for admitting that it was stupid, I admitted that a long time ago. OK, fair enough. But as for his motivation, if Clinton was willing to lie about something as mundane as oral sex, imagine what else he was willing to lie about. But it wasn't mundane........not to a Bill Clinton. That's the difference between a liberal and a neocon. Clinton would lie about a BJ but he would never lie about why he wants to go to war. That was a big factor in why the Lewinsky affair was a political turning point in my life. That's too bad. Like I've said previously, your priorities are different from mine. Seemed like throughout most of Clinton's term, he was dogged with scandal after scandal after scandal, and I attributed that to a bloodthirsty Republican Congress led by Gingrich. That was the correct attribution. Then Clinton was caught in a red-handed lie, and finally it dawned on me that there might actually be fire behind all that smoke. That pretty much killed my faith in Clinton's integrity. Once again, I am perplexed by your standards.
