Short Answer: Yes.
That's what I thought (not being a lawyer).
So why is this being equilivated (new word?) to the level of Monica's favors?
I smell a subtle deflection going on. As the real crime of Slick42 (the harrassment of Paula Jones and the rape of J. Broaddrick) was morphed into silly s3x with an intern, so the real crime of the Dems/CBS/AbileneForger is being morphed into something lesser. What that is, they are still trying to figure out, I think.
