You're being naive, and being duped by this administration.

Was china gate a "white lie" to protect people? Yeah, but not the American People. Why else would 37 people flee the country and refuse to return to testify in front of the Senate investigation committee.
Clintons M.O. is to deny, deny, deny. Riddle me this, why would "Monica" talk for 20 hours about an affair and cover-up if it didn't take place. It doesn't fit1

I believe that a lot of folks bought the story about not inhaling from this snake charmer. That's why we have the name "Slick" Willy, because rational people know better.

The only thing that really worries me about this one (besides a possible felony) is two words.... President Gore!

<<When (IF) you have an unstable insecure puberty basketcase (IF), that could cause a media frenzy and undermine the presidency, then you cannot take chances(guessing if she's lying or not) and let the "hyenas" take a hold of her.>>

I don't think Vernon Jordan has to guess if she's lying. He should know as well as anyone excluding Slick & Monica.

<<Could you blame him when he is constantly bombarded with vicious attacks built(largely) on baseless lies.>>

The problem is that they are not "baseless lies". He has later admitted things that he originally denied. You should have seen the CBS special last night on that very topic. Marijuana and Gennifer are just 2 examples. He is a proven liar.

<<You know what would have happened if he'd confessed to having smoked dope? He'd have lost the presidency. Don't you think that a "white lie" in these circumstances is forgivable.>>

No, I don't think he would have lost. After all, he admitted on national tv before the 1st election that he had been unfaithful to Hillary, and he still won. I think adultery is waaaaaayyyyy worse than smoking dope once or twice. And I think lying is waaaaaaaayyyyy worse than smoking dope (and I've never even smoked a cigarette, much less dope)
He has the best spinmeisters in the world, but even without them, I think the american public would rather know than have to wait years for him to finally admit the truth. And we skeptics might even have a little respect for him.

You'd like to contain the fires as much as possible as early as possible. This speculation could just as easily explain your concerns.>>

If Clinton had nothing to hide regarding Monica, a media frenzy would not be a serious concern. They could present the facts in a prompt, straightforward way, answer questions without playing word games, and move on. His spinsters have handled dozens of allegations and are masters at it. They obviously have something to hide.

I think they're trying to figure out which allegations there is proof for, and are trying to figure out plausible excuses for them. Why else would it take several days and teams of lawyers to make a statement? Why would they be so worried about everyone agreeing on getting the story straight if everyone just told the truth.

They're also trying to decide which of the supoenad (sp?) documents to turn over and when. What can they get away with holding back? How much time can they buy this way? They have a very long history of doing this.

And why would Monica's lawyers be trying to get her immunity if she didn't lie under oath. (And if she lied under oath, that means she DID have sex with Clinton.) Telling lies to Linda Tripp is not a crime. Lying under oath is the only crime she has been accused of for which she would need immunity.

The news just said that Ginsberg offered for Monica to testify that she had sex with Clinton in exchange for immunity, but she wouldn't say she was told to lie about it. I say Starr should go for it. If Bill testified last Saturday that he hadn't had sex with her, and she says he did, and can produce the DNA, answering machine messages, etc., then thats perjury and its bye bye billie.

I am 99.9999999% sure that Bill did something with Monica that he should not have done. I'm not sure what that thing is, but the way the White House has handled this whole thing makes me think the worst.
