But if it had been Pres Bush would he have been investigated to the extent that Clinton was? Not with Republicans controlling Congress he wouldn't. If the Democrats controlled Congress today there would be a couple of investigations of Pres. Bush going on right now.
And if the Democrats had controlled congress, the Clinton investigations would have ended years before they did - if they had ever started to begin with. That's politics.
Let's face it - without the never ending investigation of Pres. Clinton the 'lie' never would have ocurred. It was politics and political jockeying that caused the whole situation to happen. (And let's not forget the Special Prosecutor overstepped his legal authority when he started the whole Lewinsky investigation. Had to get permission - and forgiveness - AFTER the fact. Now there's integrity!) Clinton chose to lie, but the whole situation was a political trap. A very well sprung political trap at that. Gotta admire the way it was all handled by the "get Clinton for whatever you can" folks, in a perversely logical way, of course.
And if you think Bush wouldn't lie, or hasn't lied, you really are living in a dream world. ALL politicians lie. He just hasn't been put into a position where he would have to do it under oath. And as long as the Republicans control Congress, there won't be any grand jury investigations that will require him to lie under oath. The days where Congress acted in the best interests of the country ended years ago. Now it's all about Party Politics above everything else.
Was what Pres. Clinton did wrong? Sure it was. Did he get his ashes hauled in the White House? Sure he did. Is that really why conservative hate him? Nope. They never liked him and wanted him out of office at any cost - to both parties and the White House and The USA. They hated him because he was the opposite of everything they wanted. They hated him because he kept them out of the White House - twice. They wanted his ass any way they could get it. The "lie" was just an excuse.
Now that's what I call disrespect.
And if you think I'm a liberal you really are a selective reader. I feel the same about ALL politicians, political parties and ideologies. I decide for myself and rely on no one to tell me what I think. I vote for men and issues - not ideologies or parties or dogma.
Oh, yeah - how respectful is it to call Pres. Clinton "Slick Willy" and Pres. Bush "W"
Liberals and Conservatives... gotta pity 'em.
