THE LAST LIE

“I have had occasion frequently to reflect on the Jones case. In this consent order, I acknowledge having knowingly violated Judge Wright’s discovery orders in my deposition in that case. I tried to walk a fine line between acting lawfully and testifying falsely, but I now recognize that I did not fully accomplish this goal and that certain of my responses to questions about Ms. Lewinsky were false.” Do you have a clue what that means? He did not fully accomplish his goal of “walking a fine line between acting legally and testifying falsely?” Huh? How is it possible to be somewhere in between legal and perjurious? And how can you honestly describe that fine line except as an attempt to lie under oath and get away with it? His final non-apology is as phony as all the rest. That said, I’m glad it’s over. I’m going to go out tonight and get hammered.
