    ah, the Clintons ...

    I think I first started paying attention to Bill when he was asked whether he had ever smoked a joint.
    He said something like, "I did put a lit joint in my mouth, but I didn't inhale."
    I remember that the US comedians had a lot of fun with that.

    It was an astonishing thing to say - perhaps the most outrageous lie I have ever heard from a pollie. I remember thinking at the time that this is no amateur, this is a professional liar and someone to watch. The fact that he somehow got away with saying something so preposterous continues to amaze. Makes The Donald look like a wannabe.

    I'd like to think if I had been the journalist who had asked that question and received that reply, that I would have leaned across the desk and slapped him hard, once, on the side of his face. Might have changed history

    All the best for the coming week Main ones I'm watching/holding right now are ZMIO and SYAO.
