is in fact a very important verb. the verb to be.

That is right; "is" has many different meanings, depending upon context; the _ New Shorter Oxford English Dictionary_ devotes a column and a half to "be." Of course, the rigid minded and inflexible are unable to realize this significant fact. That is the reason that the conservatives and the rabid right tried to ridicule Clinton for saying "That depends on what 'is' means."
