Intentional deception while testifying under oath is perjury. Perjury is a felony, as it should be. Clinton, a sitting president and a lawyer, did it. Committing a felony while President of the United States should get you evicted every time. Ah, but then you're MoveOn comrades killed the main institution for policing this. Under their system, Nixon would've been allowed to "MoveOn." What's a little debate notebook theft in an election that was a landslide anyway? "MoveOn."

As to the "broaching" of the lawsuit, that's irrelevant to whether Clinton committed perjury.

Oh dear. You think committing perjury is OK, if you like the perjurer's politics. Oh dear. You don't believe in the rule of law. Oh dear. You like Bill Clinton. Oh dear. You can't see your own hypocrisy. If Bush had committed perjury while in office, you'd be sleeping in front of the White House with your fellow MoveOn rail-greasers. Oh dear.

Oh dear. You think providing misleading testimony during a civil trial on an issue that ought not even have been broached constitutes an impeachable offense? Why? Because Christopher Hitchens and his erstwhile pal Ralph Nader said so?
