IF BILL CLINTON HAD BEEN GEORGE WASHINGTON
"George, did you chop down that cherry tree?"
"No sir Father, I did NOT chop down that cherry tree!!!" (Picture young Bill with his lower lip pushed up, his brow wrinkled is a most serious manner, wagging his finger at his father.)
"I believe you are lying to me."
"No sir, I SWEAR I did NOT chop down that cherry tree!!"
"Son, I saw you out there with that axe! Your punishment will be much greater if you lie to me! Now tell me the truth."
"But Dad, I answered your question truthfully. Still, I must take complete responsibility for my actions. While my answer was legally correct and accurate, I did not volunteer any information."
"Indeed, Dad, I did cause the cherry tree to be lying on the ground. To do this was WRONG. It constituted a critical lapse in judgment and a personal failure on my part for which I am solely and completely responsible."
"I know my answer to you gave you a false impression. I misled you, my father. I deeply regret that."
"I can only can only tell you I was motivated by many factors. First, by a desire to protect myself from the embarrassment of my own conduct."
"I was also very concerned about protecting Mom from this shock."
"What I did Dad was use a saw to cause the cherry tree to fall. Only after the tree was already down did I go get my axe to chop off the individual branches."
"So I actually just SAWED down the tree. The only thing I chopped were branches."
"Look at the saw cut on the stump and the axe cuts on the branches."
"Therefore, legally, I told the truth!"
"And therefore I now ask you to turn away from the spectacle of this fallen tree and to return our attention to building a solid family relationship."
