Wayne,
Actually Clinton was using the the word IS in the English language correctly. Is shows present action, (He is here TODAY.) continuous action (He is still lying ..), habitual action (He is always lying.) Check a dictionary. The word has more meanings than we can imagine.
He is a dog.

It was so much easier to identify with the infamous President responding with, "It depends on what the definition of what is, is"

The PEBO (President Elect Barrack Obama) has now opened up the door for self examination in criminal wrong doing.

This should simplify the Prosecutors role in future criminal investigations. Let the accused perform self examinations.

"Obama ‘Report’ by Obama Lawyer Clears Obama Chief of Staff"

This has to be the world's first instance of a triple negative.

Hmmm, so the Obama team "clears" Obama.

Ya think?

Note the Obama's own words: "I have never spoken to the governor on this subject. I am confident that no representatives of mine would have any part of any deals related to this seat. I think the materials released by the U.S. attorney reflect that fact."

Now think back: have you EVER heard any politician say "I have full confidence in (insert name here)" and NOT have said person eventually convicted of the accused crime?

"I have full confidence" is the kiss of death in politics, with the same implications that "I am resigning to spend more time with my family" has in questions of guilt. Also note the use of the passive "would have" instead of "had" in that statement. All what we call in science "weasel words" designed to indirectly say that there is, in fact, no confidence in the statement.

Just the start of the new era of the Democrat Culture of Corruption!! And the best part is, they will have no Republicans to blame!! LOL!

Let the games begin!

Q: If President George W. Bush had been questioned by Fitzgerald, what would the headline be in the NY Times.

A: President implicated in Blago scandal. When will the truth come out?

The honeymoon for "the One" will be a lot longer than the first one hundred days.
