Mr. Clinton has lied in court, lied to the American people, then lied about lying to us.
If he just would have said, listen, I have a problem, HRC and I are trying to work on it, but I slip from time to time. I need your support, I am trying to work my way past this in my personal life, and I want you, the people, to know that this will NOT interfere with me being the President. Thank you.
I guess I just wanted him to show good character. He didn't. He tried to cover what he did up, and ended up dragging the Presidency through the mud, as well as the American people
And lets not even get into his, I-need-a-legacy-quick-someone-give-me-some-people-to-pardon-I-don't-care-who policy.

Totally agree with you there BK. It's sad that he tried to cover it up. After all, there are certain morals that should be PRESENTED to the public even if they aren't being PRACTICED. Once it's found out though, he would have done best to ADMIT to it, rather than PROLONG the investigation. Reminds me of when he was campaigning and it was found out that he dodged the draft and didn't inhale when smoking pot. Yeah, right. Didn't inhale. Not the fact that marijuana in itself is illegal to begin with. If he had just fessed up in the first place, it's easier to believe that if something goes wrong with his presidency that he won't be trying to cover that up as well. I'd rather have someone in office that has good character, because to me, that makes a good person. Having a good person, will give you a good president. Someone willing to accept the responsibility of their own actions rather than to pass them off as someone else's mistake.
