Hmmmmm. a seven letter word for the willful giving of false testimony under oath or affirmation? Full marks for the guy or gal who gets it.

The theme of the puzzle is "Twistin' the Oldies," Is that what they used to call it in the Oval Office...
I have to admit I do listen to Will Shortz' puzzle segments Sundays on NPR, but he really is a suck-up when it comes to X42.

he is supposed to be able to break 80 when he plays golf...I believe that one as much as I believe that he finishes the NYT crossword.
15 Across 6 letters starts with “V” Where I should not stick my cigar...Oh my Mr Clinton, you are very playful!

he is supposed to be able to break 80 when he plays golf... Only with a liberal use of his "hand wedge".

Since leaving office in 2001, Clinton has worked as an advocate for international relief efforts; launched the William J. Clinton Foundation which, among other efforts; is trying to make HIV and AIDS drugs more affordable; served as a spokesman in such health efforts as fighting childhood obesity, and organized the Clinton Global Initiative to help fight poverty, disease and climate change.
Wipe your chin, Reuters.

Sax? He played saxamophone on Arsenio.
Sox? He had a cat named Socks/Sox that he gave away when he left office.
Six? Six scandals?

he is supposed to be able to break 80 when he plays golf...He played a round with Tiger Woods who gave a description of his play which left no doubt that Clinton's 80 was more like a three-digit score!

They sure make him sound busy with all that philanthropic work..... no mention of his two-hundred speaking engagements a year and his earnings of something like $40M the last couple of years.
