Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor.

Under oath during a deposition, yes he did lie. I just explained how he lied.
No, he didn’t tho.
It’s history, and this is getting boring. He didn’t technically lie. You can post as many walls of text as you like, but you can’t change what happened.
He did lie in every meaning of the word, and pretending he didn't is some boomer head-in-the-sand bullshit.
He said he didn't touch her breasts, genitals, buttocks, or thighs while she was blowing him. She said he did grab those parts of her body while she was blowing him. He smoked cigars that had been inside of her, but he never touched her? Not once? Not a smack on the ass or a titty squeeze?
Do you really believe that?
But not in the technical aspect as the republicans laid out in their definition while he was under oath.
Look, you lost this argument the instant you began it, and every time you respond, I’m just gonna reply telling you that. Forever.
Give. It. Up.
You’re wrong.
He did lie in the technical aspect as the Republicans laid out in their definition while he was under oath. I've already demonstrated that. You haven't made any argument other than "nuh uh" and you want to dance around like you won.
No. Just stop. You’re never going to win this argument.
See, you think reality is an argument to win. You can have your opinions, but you don't get your own facts. I don't need to convince you.
Your type is so annoying.
"He lied to Congress!"
"No he didn't, per the definition the Congress gave of the act, he didn't lie."
"But he did lie! To his family!"
"Doesn't matter. We're talking about lying to Congress, and he technically didn't lie."
"But he lied!"
"Nope."
"Yes, he did!"
"Nope."
"YES HE DID!"
What the fuck are you talking about? I never mentioned his family. He lied under oath in his deposition. There's no technicality to it. Even with the absurdly twisted definition of "sex", he did have sex with her and said he didn't. I pointed this out six times.
You're trying to rewrite history in this comment thread.
Give. It. Up.
You lost this argument the moment you started it.
Stop feeding this troll, friend. It's probably a bot anyway.
That's what I keep trying to tell you, it was never an argument. You're just delusional. You haven't argued anything. None of your comments contain arguments, just denials.
I’m sorry that you can’t cope with the fact that you’re wrong and that Clinton didn’t lie to Congress.
You can keep this going for days or weeks or months, but I’ll just keep telling you that. Deal with it.
You keep saying "to Congress." Nobody ever accused him of that. He lied under oath in a deposition and to a grand jury. He said he didn't have sex or sexual relations with Lewinsky, and he did. He had sex with her mouth, and he groped her breasts and fingered her vagina, which falls under the definition of sex provided to him. Those things all happened, he swore an oath to tell the truth,and then he said he didn't. That's literally, technically, and in all other ways exactly what happened. He lied, and pretending he didn't is gaslighting. You can keep claiming it didn't happen, but we all know it did and nobody is going to believe you.
Another wall of text, more of you not letting it go.
You lost the argument as soon as you started it. Get. Over. It.
"Oh no, a paragraph of information I don't like."
Another wall of text, more of you not letting it go.

Reading is fundamental. There's no shame in asking for help.
Go on then. Ask for help.
Ok, please, help me help you. For the sake of all humanity, go back and read the comment thread. Because you're not doing anybody any good being belligerently ignorant.
more of you not letting it go.

It's definitely a bot. It's kinda fun to watch it insisting at it. It's like a Wrong Argument Terminator.
"It doesn't eat, it doesn't sleep, it won't stop until it has the last word."
Good troll.
Reality is upsetting to a lot of people.
Lol you're a good bot! :)
Lol you're a good troll! :)
Every accusation is an admission.
Lol you're a good troll! :)
