The purpose of his statement was to mislead and misdirect. I teach my children that is lying. Also, lying includes not telling the whole truth or relying on the exact meanings of words to misdirect or purposefully leave the listener with the wrong impression of the truth.

From the article:
It didn't take long for some reporters to realize that this claim was easily checkable and that it was misleading at best.

The Clintons made their tax returns available while Hillary was in the U.S. Senate. And those tax filings show that Clinton claimed $155,590 in 2006, $27,427 in 2005, $57,313 in 2004 and $136,046 in 2000.

Add them up, and they total $376,376. And that was just during those six years. Who knows how much Bill's cleared in cap gains since then?

Bill Clinton is a compulsive liar. He lies.

In the Catholic Penitential Act we say "...I have greatly sinned, in what I have done and what I have failed to do..." There are sins of commission and sins of omission. Some of the greatest lies are those that leave out important facts.
