The implication of the charges seem to be that if there wasn't an investigation there wouldn't have been any crime at all.

< cough >....you mean exactly like William Jefferson Clinton's crime of lying under oath, right?Getting hummers from interns in the Oval Office is no crime, but lying under oath is an impeachable offense.

IMO, don't go there.

There's arguably some similarities, but the Clinton ultimately settled the sexual harassment case that he committed perjury while testifying in, so presumably the suit had at least some validity. Also the lawsuit wasn't brought by the government in the first place.
