Well, I certainly do not condone either but I'd bet that it's pretty tough to have absolutel control in an administration. Still, and without condoning lying, I'd present the following to you to see if you'd get equally outraged:

"We'll have the most ethical administration in history"

The Travel Office stuff

Castle Grande

Whitewater

900+ FBI files

Missing and then found (miracle!! <g>) billing records in the private quarters of the White House

Countless "I don't knows" from Betty Currey, Mrs. Clinton, Craig Livingston, and literally hundresds of other White House operatives.

Buddhist Temples

Johnnie Chung

Jennifer Flowers (where Mr. Clinton is on tape suggesting suborning of perjury)

Chinese money

Ron Brown's stuff

And on and on and on....
