In my previous post, from which you quoted, I also wrote this:

He did not invite her to appear because of her CP advocacy. But, that's the impression he gave the majority leader and the house.

It appears to me he deliberately misled them. I trust you're familiar with the courtroom oath; it's not enough to tell the truth and nothing but the truth. It appears he purposely avoided telling the whole truth, with the intent of misleading his audience.

They weren't misled - she is a CP advocate, she did everything he said she would do. If he had said nothing else afterwards, they would all still be fat, dumb and happy.

I trust you're familiar with the courtroom oath; it's not enough to tell the truth and nothing but the truth.

So, witnesses just go up and start spouting their story unprompted? They just start randomly volunteering details? Or, do they answer truthfully, but only to every question asked? Maybe you wanted to use a different analogy for this room full of lawyers called a legislature.

It appears he purposely avoided telling the whole truth, with the intent of misleading his audience.

'Intent' is subjective. As for the "whole truth", go tell it to the Son of Man...
