First...Wikipedia? Please.
Second, Clinton was never convicted of perjury. He was up on actual charges of perjury before a real court, not this fake "impeachment trial" and was not convicted of such.
So Taz was correct: By a strict interpretation of the law, he didn't lie. Did you read the transcript of the trial? The prosecution fucked themselves up. They knew they were up against a lawyer and thus crafted their questions in extremely intricate ways such that they were implying an ongoing relationship right then and there at the time of the trial. Thus, Clinton was being perfectly honest when he said no because there wasn't.
