How can you compare the Clinton scandal with Bush's numerous scandals? Clinton had an affair (so do 100 million other men) and Bush gives huge tax breaks to his billionaire buddies and puts America in billions of dollars in debt. What do you think is worse? (Sorry, I really don't mean to be bias or shove my opinions down your throats. I just want an honest answer about why people see Clinton's scandal as worse)

Okay, in response to my answer from I eat paint:
I don't see what raping kids has to do with anything. Maybe you should stop eating paint so your answers can make sense...?

And Clinton didn't get us out of debt because he didn't HAVE TO!! We're in billions of dollars of debt now because of Bush and we're just getting ourselves deeper and deeper!

I never said it was Bush's tax breaks that have put the U.S. in debt. It's not. It's the war. And I personally don't understand how making the rich richer is a good thing to do with our money?!

Clinton was one of best presidents. Bush is arguably worst one. We can humbly hope that he is not the last one and country will manage to recover after his rule.
Bush is not only destroying us here in US by going beyond any balance with huge debt (though this alone is right now breaking trust in dollar). These money are lost in large part in course of unsuccessful aggression, that turns former typical non-threatening us secular dictatorship country into a country torn by civil war, soon most probably be ruled by religious fundamentalists. Not to mention all the scandals with curbing democracy. We, citizens of this country, are now partly a joke for electing a moron, - and partly a scare for the aggressiveness and religious extremism of the moron.
Those who voted for him are responsible for so much trouble that I don’t know how they explain this to their kids. The rest of us, I guess, do not feel comfortable too.
I cannot compare Clinton’s affair with Bush’s scandals, errors and probably crimes. It is just incomparable.

Ok first, how do you compare a tax break to a scandle? Bush didn't lie in front of the courts to give money back to tax payers!
Second, you need to get your facts straight! Bush gave tax breaks straight across the board! If you didn't see a big one, its probably because you don't make a lot of money!!!
For example! Lets say you make $100 a week and Bush's buddies make $10,000 a week. You will get $5 and his buddies will get $500! Yes they get more! Its because they have more! and they contribute more!
Why should you have a right to a higher percentage of your money just because you haven't worked hard enough and recieved enough of an education to earn the kind of money these people do??? Yes there were some people who didn't get a break at all! And these are the same people who are on Welfare and dont pay anything in! You can't get back what you don't contribute!!! No I don't have a lot of money! So Im not defending him for that reason! Im sick to death of people screaming that Bush is benefiting rich people. Period!
Yes, the rich benefit more than you simply because they have more than you! But this has in no way put the nation MORE in debt! As a matter of fact it was released last week that because these tax breaks were given, people put it back into the economy and it has benefited the nation exponintially! People in general saw it as a gift and spent it! Which made our economy stronger.
Please don't compare Clinton lying to the court about his illicit sex acts to Bush's tax cuts, there is simply no comparison!

First off you obviously condone affairs, there is your first problem. Second, Bush gave all Americans tax breaks which DID boost our struggling economy directly after the 9/11 attacks. Clinton never got us out of debt, he never fought against those who attacked the trade centers the first time, but maybe that was because he was distracted...not by his wife! You don't have to agree with how a president runs the country and all in all i think that Bush is doing great, especially with what he came into office facing. He has handle himself great and there is a reason he is still the president and the libs aren't.

It isn't worse. As a matter of fact, I commend Clinton for taking away some stress for 10 minutes in the oval office. Bush takes away stress by spending 5 weeks in Texas.

Let me know when there is a murder in the air, such as in the Whitewater scandal. If you still believe that EVERYONE invoved went to prison except Hillary and she had no idea, you are sadly mistaken. By the way, why were the Clinton's the first people allowed in his office BEFORE the police or FBI to go through his files and get anything they wanted? Get a clue, THEY COMMITTED MURDER!

I am totally with you, but the Christian right wing thinks that sex is far dirtier than killing our men uselessly for nothing. Clinton lied, no body died. Bush lies, and lies, and.....and ...well, what can I say. And, to 'I eat paint."....your response looks as if you HAVE been eating paint...with lead! Sorry, but your response was mindless.
