And We Need Him Now More Than Ever

"He could find wiggle room in the word is. He could issue stern denials about his relationship with Monica Lewinsky while looking straight into the camera. Sen. Bob Kerrey once described him as 'an unusually good liar.'"

- From John Dickerson, writing in Salon.com

  1. The Bob Kerrey remark has always annoyed me. Clinton wasn't a good liar. He was a terrible liar. It got to the point that even when he was telling the truth, reasonable people assumed there was a fib in there somewhere.

    The real point, in my opinion, is not that Clinton was a good liar, but that so many people, despite knowing that he was lying, just really didn't care.
