quote[On the October 23 edition of NBC's Meet the Press, Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison (R-TX) downplayed the seriousness of a perjury indictment as a "technicality" and falsely claimed "there were charges against Bill Clinton besides perjury and obstruction of justice" during his 1999 Senate trial on impeachment charges. In fact, just two articles of impeachment against Clinton were approved by the House of Representatives: one for perjury, and the other for obstruction of justice. Hutchison's falsehood went uncorrected by host Tim Russert and was not mentioned by any of the news outlets that quoted her Meet the Press appearance.]Glad I wasn't the only one who noticed.
