He could have been looking for the Loch Ness Monster, he shouldn't have been lying. Oh well, do stupid things, win stupid prizes.

If the judge gives him that then I guess it does.

You're going to need to show how me thinking the rule of law is important doesn't jive with Libertarian ideals. Stone pissed his individual liberty away when he broke the law.
Your partisan stance on this is clouding your judgement.

I agree with him getting justice, and if that means going to jail then that is his justice. I am talking about the hypocrisy here. Too many others have lied to congress with no punishment.

Once again, Stone's attorney is apparently a giant moron just like Stone, if this were the case he should have excused that juror.
