You, of course, are correct.
Absolutely correct. On my limited behalf I'd like to think that I'm not as intellectually dishonest as the next guy. When someone I favor, Al Gore, Hillary, lies I can admit it's a lie. That when Bill Clinton lied under oath I thought he should have been impeached and convicted.
And that really is a fundamental difference. There are those out there who still insist Bush, for instance, didn't lie. Doesn't lie.
