So, it is ok for people to lie in court because politicians do it?

[mcv]

No, but if you only prosecute poor people for it and not politicians, you create an unjust, class-based system where the law is different for different people. Politicians need to be held accountable perhaps more so than average people.

[curiousgal]

Yes. Politicians are representatives of the people afterall.
