Do I care if he perjured himself testifying in a nuisance civil case? Not really.

That attitude really perplexes me.


Let's say I'm the defendent in a civil case. Let's say I'd had an affair with someone who worked for the same company I did. I had the superior position, though I didn't work in the same division that he did. He failed to get a promotion, and so sued me.

His lawyers subpeona me. In the course of giving my deposition I am questioned about every other man I've ever so much as had dinner with. Did I sleep with this one, that one, that other one? What do I do? I certainly wouldn't go into detail about my sex life. I'd either refuse to answer and invite the court to cite me for contempt, or I'd lie. Probably I'd do the former, and that's what Clinton should have done. Stupid of him that he didn't.
