    I thought you were being sarcastic and that you knew what I was talking about. My mistake.
    But I saw it on TV and now Max posted it.

    Well, perhaps they know they CAN'T get it declassified and thus it is a FREE PASS to say he was lying.

    There are lots of reasons in the game called Washington.

    You're right they bash each other, but to use your analogy I couldn't give credibility to anyone who is that fickle

  8. Not at all.

    I laugh at your keeping score of "points."

    Truly the sign of someone who needs a win of sorts.

    LOL...Haunt them HOW? You seem to forget that the most Americans memories are about 30 minutes long when it comes to political garbage.

    Even the wording the Frist uses in the accusation has got back doors in it a mile wide...

    "Mr. Clarke has told two entirely different stories under oath,"

    That is a statement of OPINION...how the hell is that going to "haunt" anyone?

    As I said before...maybe he lied, but just because Frist says two different stories are being told does not a lie prove.

    I say PROVE IT or don't say it's "proven"

  10. Fickle?

    Was Bush fickle to move from an anti-nation building position pre presidency to the current nation building efforts in Iraq?

    Or is it a matter of re-thinking the situation?

    The point is that you can have an opinion at one time, and change the opinion at a later time without having lied with the second opinion which is different or even opposite from the first opinion.

    That is why any attempt to convict Clarke on perjury would fail, because he was stating opinion, not a fact.
