The purpose of all of this is to catch them in some misstatement, no matter how trivial, which can then be labeled as false or even perjurious. |

Criminal defenders, he says, are not the only ones who are blinded by zealotry, who interfere with witnesses or who elicit testimony they know to be perjurious. |

Elected crooks such as Jonathan Aitken, a perjurious Tory minister, have been convicted in the past. |
It would be better if the excesses of legalism were rolled back, so that Americans feel readier to impeach the next perjurious president. |
