1. Makes Nixon's antics look like mere childish frat pranks in comparison
IMHO.

7. Nixon would never have had the nerve
to pull the stunts Chimpy has gotten away with. Given how corrupt and crazy Nixon was, the mind boggles.

10. Even if you only look at the domestic spying issue-
Can you imagine Nixon going on TV and saying, "Yeah that's right. I did it. And I'm going to keep doing it"?

2. you notice though 2 cool
how every time they do something that is either questionable or downright against the law they cite either
A;that Clinton did it too or
B;make it up that he did it even if he didn't
and these are the people who were going to restore "dignity" back to the oval office-yea sure

4. My apolitical coworker said this morning
"Why haven't they impeached Bush yet? After all, they impeached Bush for an affair, and this is much worse!"

5. extent
Remember, we don't yet (and most probably never will) know the extent of these crimes. Diebold/election fraud/9/11/LIHOP/MIHOP/genocide in NOLA?/US chem war/torture in Iraq. . .

8. Bill Clinton: The right-wing's moral barometer
Edited on Wed Dec-21-05 12:26 PM by Marr
That's what I don't understand about the "Clinton did it, too" nonsense. First, it's just ludicrous to compare an affair to Bush's numerous crimes. But even if it weren't...

Clinton was impeached. The right despised Clinton so much that numerous dimwitted gasbags managed to build *careers* on it. They hate Bill Clinton.

So where's the argument?

9. The Constitution doesn't even say...
that the president has to be married in the first place, let alone be a good husband.

:wtf:

So what's the point?

Crazy religious bigots...ruined the whole country...

11. I still say, there's not many people who wouldn't be embarrassed
enough to lie about something that a significant percentage practice on a daily basis. That's all I'm sayin':shrug:
