-Caveat Lector-
Prudy,
Are you saying Clinton did not lie at that particular time or has not lied
at all? I remember his saying that if a score card had been kept, he would
have gotten a pretty good score because he had told the truth to the
American people more than he had lied to them. His own words. That may be
just peachy with you but for some of us, it is not good enough. Some of us
are against lying all the time.
My son works for the govt in DC (<sad sign>) and his girlfriend was not to
be in his apartment unattended. They cannot get married until her security
clearance is final. I do not discuss his work (I do not ask and he does not
tell) because he is given a polygraph test routinely. If he had married the
girl before security clearance was through he could have gone to jail! So
why is the Leader of the Free World entitled to more privacy than this
peon-level kid of mine?
You get in about 20 free pot shots at the Republicans before anybody says
anything, Prudy. How many do you feel you are entitled to have?

PS When you have to get that technical over lie/truth, you have lost the
meaning of the question anyway. Depends on how you define "is." Guess he
would have carried on with not having sex with Monica if Hillary followed by
the entire press corps had entered the room, huh?
