Frank A Pisa says all politicians lie, therefore Clitnon is not to be faulted.
I am very much afraid that Clinton took a plea bargain from special prosecutor( I hope that Frank APisa can point out other presidents who took plea bargains from the special prosecutor).
I am certain that Frank A Pisa is not aware that Clinton took a plea bargain in which he
l. Lost his law license for five years
2. Paid a $25,000 fine
3. Admitting lying in his depositions.
FrankA Pisa is not aware that the charges against Clinton are not that he indulged in sexual activities but rather that he lied under oath.
If FrankA Pisa doesn't know the difference, there are several good books I can refer him to.
However, Frank A Pisa's comments appear to make short shrift of the extensively documented and superbly reason- "An Affair of State".
Therefore, I will list another statement by Judge Posner which may give FrankAPisa some more insight.
P. 35
"In any event, no one thinks that violating a statute forbidding consensual sex between adults is a high crime or misdemeanor. Such statutes are dead letters."
P. 36
"The crime plausibly attributable to the President growing out of his affair with Lewinsky is obstruction of justice"
If you still don't understand that, Frank A Pisa, and you don't understand the President Clinton took a plea bargain on Jan. 19th 2001( his last day in office), I think I can try to explain it to you more fully.
Please do call me Frank.
And if you want to "explain" something else about Bill Clinton, do so.
I'm always willing to listen to conservatives talking about Bill Clinton. He was one of my favorite presidents -- and no true Bill Clinton supporter ever underestimates the value of what people like you did for Bill Clinton with your childish rage against him.
In fact, I'll even thank you for any help you may have been during the Clinton years.
BTW -- I mentioned this before -- but I guess I have to mention it again...
...I notice you make a practice of inappropriately paraphrasing people -- and then arguing against the inappropriate paraphrasing.
That is really a cesspool debating tactic, Gato -- used mostly by people who are so thoroughly beaten on the issues, they have no other choice.
I never said, "...all politicians lie, therefore Clitnon is not to be faulted."
As I mentioned before, if you have an issue with anything I write, quote it and give me the reasons for your disagreement. We can discuss it. But if you have to resort to pretending that I said something so that you can argue against your pretence -- you'd be better off just conceding defeat. At least that way people won't laugh at you.
