I bet everyone has forgotten Larry Patterson, the former Arkansas state trooper who claimed to have arranged sexual liaisons for former President Clinton when Clinton was governor of Arkansas.

To refresh your memory, Patterson told his story to now-repentant liar and former right-wing Anita Hill basher David Brock. Patterson was paid $6,700 by a Republican fund-raiser, which reportedly surprised Brock, who wrote the American Spectator article in which Patterson's story appeared.

Patterson is in the news again, at least in Arkansas (the general news media isn't too fond of clearing up questionable stories in which Clinton was implicated in misconduct). He just pleaded guilty in a U.S. Federal Court to one count of making a false statement to a federal agent, a crime punishable by up to five years in prison and a fine of up to $250,000.

Poor Larry. After he did so much to defend our country.
