If you'd lie about your sex life, what else would you lie about? If your integrity can be sold that cheaply, what else are you willing to sell cheap?
People perpetually accuse Bush of lying, though they can't point to the specific elements of the crime (1, that the accused made a statement; 2, that the statement was false at the time that the accused made the statement; 3, that the accused knew the statement was false at the time the statement was made) and argue in a detailed and logical fashion. I see a lot of name calling, but no convincing arguments. As with other crimes, I hold Bush innocent until proven guilty.
Meanwhile, Clinton demonstrably lied. The only thing standing between him and conviction of lying was the definition of the word "is." The issue of getting a BJ in the Oval Office is almost moot, compared to the issue of lying. Like so many others have said, had he just owned up to it, it'd sit a lot better with me.
