Clinton's Flea Bargain
« on: January 19, 2001, 12:43:00 PM »
Why would someone who hasn't done anything (according to billy bob) wrong have to make a deal with the special prosecutor less than 24 hrs before becoming a private citizen?

Heard he has to admit, in writing, he mislead, err lied to, the American people and will lose his lawyer license for five years. If you or I had committed similar crimes, we'd be in jail...Equal justice, I think not.

Personally I was hoping for an indictment  then a Bush pardon. Slick willie gets away with another one...

I am shocked to learn that he may have "lied".  <lol>

I am not shocked to learn how close his admittal is to leaving office, nor am I shocked that this did not come out before last November.

Some people say athletes and entertainers should not be called "role models".  Guess that goes for Presidents also.

your best criminals are those who don't get caught, stay one step above the law or legal system in this case.

sorry, I think clinton is a bigger crook/criminal than we may ever know...

What part of lieing under oath do you not understand wobble?  Un frigging believable that people still dont get it.  

Under oath you do not get to pick and choose what is appropriate to answer or not, if the judge allows it you answer.

"Some people are more equal than others"

Specially if they hold high office, hold a potentially serious embarrasment to the nation and even worse, make way for Hillary to go to the white house!

If a governor had lied in Congress when under oath im sure they wouldve nailed his balls outside city hall.Slick Willy strikes another home run!

You seem to be fascinating by the 50M figure. The feds are pissing away 3.8 M of our money every minute. The Clinton investigation has cost us... 13 minutes of the fed spending. Well worth it.

So, he lied under oath.  About what, State secrets?  Illegal arms sales?  Corrupt business deals?  Illegal campaign funding?  No, about cheating on his wife.  What does that have to do with State security?  All that shows me is that he has a problem with marital fidelity.

So a lie is ok because it is about cheating on your wife an not state secrets?  Good God, I thought people were smarter than that.  The last time I checked, a lie under oath is a lie under oath, whether it the question was "Have you ever picked your nose when you are alone?" or "Did you sell that information to Iraq?"  Now wonder he had such a high approval rating, there are a lot people out there willing to turn their heads.

If it's not a big deal then why did he get a $25,000 fine.  Why did he get a 5 year suspension?  Why is he not allowed to seek reimbursement for his legal fees?

Here is the direct quote from the written statement signed by the President of the United States: "....am certain my responses to questions about Ms. Lewinsky were false," Clinton said in a written statement released Friday by the White House."

And by the way, before any of you Clinton lovers out there think this is about Monica L. and a blowjob in the Oval Office, please read your facts.  Quote: "Clinton's statement dealt only with his sworn testimony in his January 1998 deposition in Paula Jones' sexual harassment lawsuit".

I want to once again point to this link in case anyone cares to read before they spout off.  http://www.cnn.com/2001/ALLPOLITICS/stories/01/19/clinton.lewinsky/index.html

 It's about the rule of law.  Did you watch the senate trial? There were at least 3 or 4 "witnesses" that had been convicted of purgery in the past and each spent like 5 years in PRISON.  In each case the lies were about sex.

 If you get caught lieing under oath it does't matter what you lied about.  He took an oath to tell the whole truth and nothing but the truth and then broke that oath.  The whole lewinski thing was to hide the fact that he had lied in the Paula Jones case. Then he lied to a federal grand jury.

 What a deal! Sir, admit to all the charges and we won't prosecute you.   that sorry bastard cost the country a year and 50 million dollars, do you realy think he did that just to protect his family? He did it to keep his sorry bellybutton in office.

 And yesterday on his last day in office   he admitted to the whole thing.....
