The lying is the point. When was he lying and why? I remember seeing him standing beside a fence in Iraq saying that he knew there were WMD but the Clinton administration would not back him in forcing Sadaam's hand by insisting that the inspectors not have to get permission prior to visiting sites. If he was lying then, why and who was pressuring him - not Clinton. If we are going to go to war based on lies I want to be certain who the liar is!
