Well Janice, are you as concerned about the fact that Clinton, when initially confronted with the Willey story, stated he did not recall the meeting. In his deposition, he not only "recalled", he was very specific in his detail.... She was distraught, I "hugged" her in a comforting way, "kissed" her forehead... Perhaps Clinton would like to clarify which version is correct.

It's a moot point if it were an incorrect report. But if Willey did in fact earlier offer a quite different account of the incident, it seems to me quite important.

If nothing else, this should be clarified.


It was clarified on 60 minutes. It wasn't Willey that was behind those previous accounts. Perhaps leaked testimony that the WH didn't quite get right or any number of other sources that had part of the story. But none of them Willey's.

Janice the main point here is that Willey was not only willing to cover up for Clinton but that she was covering up for Clinton! She had refused to confirm anything until very recently when a Federal Judge ordered her to tell her story. At that point she had three choices. Say nothing, lie under oath, or tell the truth under oath. Looks to me that the truth was the most difficult of those choices. It also appears to me and most of the US population that to tell the truth was the choice she made.

At least part of the video is on the CBS web site in a .rm format, whatever that might be.
