Clinton's "is"

"It depends on what the meaning of the word “is” is. If “is” means is and never has been, that’s one thing. If it means there is none, that was a completely true statement."

"Now, if someone had asked me on that day, are you having any kind of sexual relations with Ms. Lewinsky, that is, asked me a question in the present tense, I would have said no. And it would have been completely true."
