Clinton and his wife
Hillary, who have both been caught out lying.
1. Reporter: "Mrs
Clinton, in order to look tough and courageous, you claimed you entered Bosnia under sniper fire, but there is film of you stepping off a plane and being greeted by a welcoming party - no gunfire anywhere."
Hillary: "I admit I may have misspoke."
2. Bill: "I did not have sex with that woman!"
Monica Lewinsky: "I gave the President blow-jobs in the Oval Office, and he stuck cigars up my
vagina and masterbated me with them."
Bill: "It wasn't sex, but I admit I did a little Miss
poke."
Reporter: "And what about Jennifer Flowers?"
Bill: "Well, I thought her cunt was vase so I stuck my stalk into it. That wasn't sex - it was just ikebana."
