...difference between lying as a legal issue and as a moral one. The definition of perjury is far narrower than what your grandfather would have considered a damned lie. The legal bar of truth is awfully low. Bill Clinton can be "legally accurate" and still be lying through his teeth. "Religion and law are fishing at the opposite ends of a continuum," says Skip Masback, a former Washington litigator who is now a Congregational Church minister.

The findings bolstered the arguments of those who suggested that Clinton was right when he declared on Friday in the Rose Garden that "No one wants to get this matter behind us more than I do, except maybe all the rest of the American people...
...life in the same evening by the ever resourceful Healy. Even more un-funny elements of the film are the parts in which mentally retarded or disabled individuals are the targets of bad jokes. It is one thing to poke fun at Healy for his gigantic, hideously capped teeth, but it becomes extremely offensive to make fun of another man simply because he cannot walk without leg braces...
