I'm suspicious about this article. The only source that I could find is NewsMax which has an extremely well known right wing/anti Bill Clinton political agenda. Its the rightwing version of Moveon.org, sorry I'm not buying it, something like that would be in the mainstream media and you could be sure the right such as FOX would pounce on it. Newsmax, Drudge, Moveon, Mediamatters etc are all extremely bias and their crediability is zero with me.

All politicians lie, including the good ones. The difference is what they lie about. Yes Lewinsky and the drug thing was stupid and quite obvious. I refer to it as 'lawyering' which means take a very simple concept such as sex with a women and try and dissect it so much that it sounds like something else. Except its so obvious, that it fools nobody. No doubt, its a chilish tactic that tries to take everyone for a fool. I understand why Clinton lied I dont fault him for it (just try admitting an affair in front of 4 Billion people) he should have just lied better. Clintons fibs while childish were generally harmless (at least to the nation, although I doubt Hillary minded too much either). I mean seriously how much sleep did you lose when you discovered Clinton had an affair? It wasnt their first time thats happened (Kennedy, Eisenhower, FDR).

On the other hand compare that to a president sent his C.R.E.E.P friends to spy on political opponents and then had the audicity to say "I'm Not a Crook!". Or another who traded anti-tank missiles to Iran in direct violation of congress and claimed "he didn't remember". Or worse the current situation in a sitting US President knowing full well that there was no evidence to link Saddam to Niger Yellowcake went ahead and presented this as fact during the State of the Union in order to trick the American people into believing their lives were in danger.

It makes what Clinton did rather small in comparison.
