      Maybe it's just men who lie under oath? ;Phttps://twitter.com/Delavegalaw/status/1038580628780994560 …

      Well, few more: Clair George, war hero/CIA intel legend, convicted of perjury before Congress (Iran-Contra); John Dean, Georgetown Law, convicted of perjury before Congress; Scooter Libby, Yale B.A., Magna Cum Laude, Columbia Law, Harlan Fiske Stone Scholar, convicted of perjury.

      The correct response to this would be to point out there are just more men in a position to lie under oath.

          eh i'm willing to bet there's also a bit more of 'but but it's me and i'm special' involved with men who end up under oath

          Certainly seem to be a lot of lawyers represented on the list. Same reason I guess.

          Well, yes, Bill Clinton did lie under oath, and, last I checked, he was a man.

          she wasn't under oath or are you saying she didn't lie?

          I am saying she didn't lie when the FBI questioned her about the email server. Or when she answered hours of questions about it in Congress. About that, she didn't lie.

          did she have approval to use a personal email server to do government business?

          I've been thinking about Harriet Myers who was rejected by fellow conservatives for not having an Ivy pedigree and for not being a known ideologue but to my knowledge, didn't use stolen documents or make false statements about said documents.
