You are deluded; most people know more about these facts already than they know about their own families. This is the equivalent of England's Price Charles and Lady Di event. Your out of touch completely if you think anyone wants to hear more so-called facts. As Congressmen on boths sides have said this week; the facts that relate to anything involving impeachable issues are simple and there are just a handful of them. All the other expansive detail is really not particularly relevant. Everyone understands he lied, but is stuck in a box on legalisms. It is the INTRETATION of all of this that is up for grabs. The judgement call and it is a judgement call as to the severity of all of this is what is remaining to be resolved. You don't give someone the death penalty for lying about cheating on their taxes for example. The big problem is that Clinton did wrong, but there is a huge disagreement as to whether it is impeachable which is the equivalent of a political death sentence. Everyone knows what is going on here including the public. They know he lied, but how big a deal is it? You have your fixed opinion; mine, I don't think it is a big deal. The circumstances have to be factored in and used to judge all of this IN CONTEXT.
