But the point of my post was that Clinton's 'crime' was not something that justified
impeachment. His affiar was a civil matter, as is lying under oath.

Was the guy a scumball for cheating on his wife? Sure, but take a look at all the
other politicians who did the same. Newt Gingritch(sp?) is a prime example. He was
having an affair while he was the Speaker of the House. And he had an illegal immigrant
working for him. Did he get investigated? Where was the 4 year long, taxpayer funded
witch hunt by a special prosecutor?

So Clinton had an affair and tried to cover it up. Big deal. Was this the business
of the public? Not in my book.

Did 2050 american soldiers die because of it?




>Bush will never get impeached and will never fully take the blame because it cannot be proven he willfully lied to anyone or that he even knew what was real intelligence and what was manipulated. Just as it could not be proven that Reagan knew about Iran/Contra. History is scattered with leaders lying: President McKinley led the U.S. into the Spanish American War by lying to the people and stating that the USS Maine was sunk in Havana Harbor by a Spanish mine when it was really sunk by a coal explosion. Hitler told Germany that Poland attacked first. FDR claimed Pearl Harbor was a surprise attack when most know now that that is not true. Johnson lied about the Gulf of Tonkin incident and Vietnam was escalated.
