alfreda89 | Don't these people know what "Congressional Record" means?

We do look back at it, you know.

Kay Bailey Hutchinson said, "I certainly hope that if there is going to be an indictment ... that it is an indictment on a crime and not some perjury technicality."

That is extremely disappointing coming from Hutchison because perjury is not a technicality. It is lying under oath. It also sharply varies from her comments in 1999 when the topic concerned perjury and testimony by then-President Bill Clinton.

Thanks to blogger Andrew Sullivan for providing such a nice cluster of material leading to quotes taken from the Congressional Record. Kay Bailey Hutchinson got points from me for voting for McCain's No Torture Amendment, while The Other Senator voted against it. (He not only lost any remote chance at my vote, I'll push for anyone who looks competent who runs against him.) Now she's making herself look foolish, uneducated and, well...like a crony. Not a good place to be right now.

I didn't like her voting record, but I thought better of her. Now, I'm getting cold feet on even that assessment.

She was right about perjury being a crime even when we were spending millions on Clinton's "equipment" and where he was putting it. She's wrong now.
