Key passage:

"I was there," the Memphis Democrat said. "I like football, and I like girls. I don't have … no apologies for that."

Ford has not been as direct when the topic has come up before. He told George Stephanopoulos on an ABC Sunday morning talk show earlier this month that he had never been to a Playboy mansion party.

I don't know. That seems pretty direct to me. It's just that he was lying.

He was parsing, not lying. The party he attended was NOT at the Playboy mansion. Its as bad as lying, though.

It was a Clinton-style truth. He never has been to Playboy Mansion party...but he's been to other Playboy parties.

Be fair. He wasn't lying. Directly, that is.

He was being CLINTONESQUE.

"I never had sexual relations with that woman..." Tell a lie then tell the truth when you have been had.

" I don't have … no apologies for that."

If that is a direct Ford quote, electing him would seriously degrade Senatorial eloquence...
