<<Perjury is perjury if there is to any respect for the rule of law>>

Maybe so, but that doesn't make it worthwhile to pursue it. In some circumstances (if we were at war for instance) the perjury would be overlooked. You have to weigh the damage you cause by pursuing impeachment against the damage you cause by not pursuing it. The people supporting Clinton feel that impeachment would cause more damage than not pursing the perjury charge. You obviously disagree.

<<<There is no permissible perjury. Perjury is perjury if there is to any respect for the rule of law.>>>

Have you ever filed a federal income tax return? Have you noticed what it says under the line where you sign? Does your conscience permit you to say that YOU have never in your life committed "perjury"?
