>>let's suppose President Clinton did have sex with Monica--what's worse: lying about sex or lying about selling arms to the Iranians?? Are yoiu trying to excuse Clinton? Are you using the 1st grader excuse "it's okay to do because Bobby did it first?" And ask yourself this: is it worse for a lawyer or an actor to lie under oath?

Lazarre: The answer is that any lie under oath is wrong. There is however a difference between the two cases. One concerns the criminalization of policy matters and the other concerns the pursuit of personal pleasures. You guess which is which. JLA

One, where did the arms sale monies go, and Two, where did the encryption sale funds go? and Three, the 42 mil?? your figure, is only rising because your buddy Bubba won't get up and tell his side. Why, if he is so innocent of everything, won't he testify????? This is truly a pure Clintonism. alan w

>>I asked this question before ( no, don't worry, not the one about proof and evidence ) and never got a straight answer so I'll ask it again : let's suppose President Clinton did have sex with Monica--what's worse: lying about sex or lying about selling arms to the Iranians?? Duh. Yeah, you asked it before, and were answered, but you are impervious to all reason and knowledge. Hence your reputation and status as unthinking Clintonista wannabe. Jimmy Carter's administration offered to buy the hostages back with weapons during the 1980 campaign to save his failed presidency. North got the other hostages back by exchanging them for defective, obsolete weapons. (You know defective, like all your so-called arguments.) Quite a savvy move and not at all as bad as Clinton selling US missile technology to the Chinese totalitarians for illegal campaign $$$. That technology is now being used to target US cities. No wonder he has Reno retaining control and trying to strangle that investigation despite the fact that all the experts (as opposed to the Clintonistas) agree that the law calls for an independent investigation. Reno even tried to hide the evidence that the FBI Director says she is/was willfully misreading and abusing the law. But could it be any other way for Bill Clinton's Attorney General? Remember, they are the "Dream Team" that incinerated all those children in Waco. (No one can dispute that, as the recent PBS documentary has made clear.) And they didn't even do it for illegal campaign cash. Yes, Clinton could be impeached for many crimes but many say that his worst crime is that he is a perjurer, which is a greater crime than most because it is the crime that shields all other crimes or misconduct from the public. Clinton's legacy will be as the Great Liar who became the First Perjurer. Btw, "Duh" has been your most impressive quote so far.
