And Jimbo Dude, I hate to break it to you, but the "they're all crooks" argument is about as lazy-minded as thinking can get. They're not all crooks. That's silly.

At this point, the Little Boys Who Cried Wolf Club were so successful we don't know if they actually tell the truth. Perhaps the next time somone is under oath, we can hook them up to a lie detector.

Certainly not when they are both lawyers and know that they are or will shortly be investigated by Congress or the FBI for how they operated in tandem. Ken Starr's erotic obsessions to the contrary, scandals in Washington are not about sex, they are about the abuse of power. Again, Mr. Gonzales' office demonstrates that it doesn't know the difference between the truth and what's good for the boss.

The man has lied under oath. If all he really wanted to do was comfort her, and with him being someone who supposes knows the law, he should not have met with her in person. He could have merely sent her a letter explaining why he could not meet in person and offered her comfort in the letter. If needed, she could then produce the letter. I completely believe that he coached her. Come on, the man is a documented liar. I don’t believe him. The man has lied under oath.
