Both are evidence of a lack of integrity, and under some circumstances lying IS a crime. If I admit I lie all the time about everything but never actually steal anything, does that make me a better person than someone who doesn't lie but drives away without paying after pumping gas? Or a worse one? If I cheat on my income taxes that's both lying and stealing. It's a dumb distinction.

I would have added "Just like you." but that might have made it too long for a bumpersticker.

Yet, it is considered a crime if you lie while on the stand after taking oath. Does this mean if this asshole lies on the stand after he takes oath it will not be a crime only for him? That Mofo is a piece of shit than needs to be flushed to the sewer where he belongs. Oh, oops sorry that would put him back into the current White House.
