It shows a pattern of lying and trying to cover-up misdeeds, which I see as very relevant to the type of man that is (unfortunately) in charge of our country. I think lying about a criminal conviction is a big deal.

I am not saying that Bush is absolved from any guilt about that incident. A distinction that I do make is that Clinton lied under oath about things that he did WHILE IN OFFICE.
To say that "most of us would have done the same" in reference to Clinton does not make what he did right in my eyes. And I think lying under oath when you are supposed to be the person who enforces the law is a big deal. I would have much more respect for the man if he would just have fessed up to begin with. Look at all the trouble Martha, Inc. has gotten herself into by trying to "cover-up" what she did.
