Also not under oath:



Like President Bush, former President Clinton "refuse[s] to testify before the commission publicly."

There are a lot of reasons, due to National Security and Constitutional Separation of Powers issues, why Presidents--or ex-Presidents--wouldn't testify before a Congressional committee.

You can choose to accept those or not. However, if you don't accept them for the sitting President you can't excuse the ex-President.

The keyword, again, is "UNDER OATH".

Bush just wants to shoot the shit for an hour NOT UNDER OATH, of course, and with only a couple of people rather than before the full panel. If he's not UNDER OATH and refuses to speak UNDER OATH, what reason is there to beleive a word he says? Why does he fear talking UNDER OATH? Prosecution for perjury?

If he's half the imperialistic tyrant that you constantly portray him to be, being tried for perjury would the least of his worries, dumbfuck.
