Janice, I think the problem (at least for me) with Clinton asking Gennifer Flowers to lie on tape is not so much the circumstances under which he asked that--for the media or in court--but that at the same time he lied to the American people about it on 60 Minutes AND then said during that little red-faced, finger-pointing speech that he rehearsed for a couple of hours with Harry Thomason, the one after the education meeting, that he had never asked anyone to lie, not one time, never. It really destroys his credibility.

I know that you believe everyone lies about sex, but at some point it would have seemed more honorable if he had told the American public his private life was irrelevant, instead of continuing to lie.

Got me. Technically you are right. He was just asking her to lie and then he lied about it. Big difference, right? JLA
