Everyone knows Bill Clinton's big lie of "I did not have sexual relations with that woman", but while browsing Newsweek last week, I learned (buried on p. 41) that President Bush said this on April 24, 2004 in Buffalo, New York:
"Now, by the way, any time you hear the United States government talking about wiretap, it requires -- a wiretap requires a court order. Nothing has changed, by the way. When we're talking about chasing down terrorists, we're talking about getting a court order before we do so. It's important for our fellow citizens to understand, when you think Patriot Act, constitutional guarantees are in place when it comes to doing what is necessary to protect our homeland, because we value the Constitution."
I couldn't believe our beloved President would lie to us like that. (At least until I found the statement on the official White House web site - it's about halfway down).
Someone please explain to me why lying about sex is sooooo much worse than lying about violating the Fourth Amendment? And why hasn't the "liberal media" covered this story like they jumped all over Clinton? I would like to have the facts reported so that I could decide.
