Is it worse to go for impeachment on Bush or Clinton???

Question

It seems cut and dry for me... Clinton's impeachment was Divorce Court material... Bush's potential for impeachment would bring charges for many, MANY consecutive life sentences if not the Death Penalty--THAT would be ironic... the texan redneck president facing an ending that he drooled over for others as governor of Texas.

To weluvgwbush: (nice name by the way... and you're AGAINST gay marriage???) FYI: if you haven't read my profile info I was in the military for a bit too, what's your point??? You must be jealous you're not as open-minded as I am. Than again, you are right by North Korea... thinking like a North Korean already... MUST LOVE MY MASTER...

You morons keep saying "Clinton was going through impeachment for lying under oath". I KNOW, but WHAT was he lying about??? Having an affair??? Oh no... STOP THE DAMN PRESSES... you found the WMD!!! It's a stained blue dress worn by a intern!!! CONGRATULATIONS IDIOTS!!!

Answer 1

I personally feel Bush should be impeached for lying about "weapons of mass destruction". He disgusts me with his agenda. I am so tired of him using the 9/11 attacks as propaganda for his campaigns. How he can convince millions that the attacks make him a great leader are beyond me. It makes him weak if anything. Pretty sleazy how he shifted the patriotism shortly after the attacks toward Iraq...ugh! And another thing, these idiot blind followers who think that anyone who dislikes an incompetent President and unprovoked war is a terrorist or unamerican are the same ones who voted for the guy. Like a bunch of rats following Peter Piper. Wake up people!

Answer 2

"Check your facts. Clinton was impeached for LYING under oath."

Bush has done nothing except protect the American people. If you want him put to death, you'll have to include every senator and representative that voted for the war. They had access to the EXACT same intelligence and made the same decision."

Um. You're right... clinton was impeached for lying under oath. You have that right. Where you're wrong is that Bush has done nothing wrong. I can't believe you even think that Bush is a better president than Clinton. I don't mean in his views on abortion or such. But the things he's done! Jeeze. Go do a search online for "Impeachable Offenses By Bush".

If you just dismiss all of those sites as being biased and false without looking then you yourself are biased. I've looked on countless conservative sites talking about the good things the president has done. Go, search for those sites. You'll find that the president has done impeachable offenses. Not saying he should be impeached or not. Just look and admit that he's done impeachable things.

Answer 3

Clinton's impeachment was politically motivated. Sure it was embarrassing, and he was a bit of an idiot, and he almost certainly lied under oath. Technically - yes impeachable offences, but do they really merit it?

I presume that the basis for impeaching Bush would be around false claims of WMD in Iraq. If Bush was really in possession of intelligence that they existed, then I, in all honesty, can't see a basis for impeachment, though his political judgement is certainly in further doubt. If, on the other hand, he had a hand in pushing the case for the Iraq invasion through, knowing the intelligence to be false and that WMD did not exist, then there certainly is a case for impeachment. You need to make the call.

Whatever, the war in Iraq will undoubtedly be viewed by history as gravely mistaken, hugely costly in terms of human life, and ultimately counter-productive for the West. There was NO LINK between Saddam Hussein and Al-Quaida: much more likely is a link in Syria, or Iran. Saddam was a genocidal maniac, but had the West acted accordingly in the 80s, when he was in receipt of Western military assistance in the war with Iran, he would have been contained in a much more effective manner, and would not have been set up as a martyr for Islamic extremists.

Answer 4

Bush should be impeached for the whole Iraqi fiasco, and if more legitimate information comes out about his (and his cronies) role in 9/11 that too. I really think he's simply the figure-head of the Halliburton fascist military regime that's colonizing the Middle East, he doesn't really make decisions, he just uses catchy phrases made up by Cheney and Rumseld to brainwash the people into believing nonsense like, "we're going to take your freedom away to protect it."

I don't care how many thumbs downs I get, I'm more patriotic then the entire population of neocons put together. If the Founding Fathers were alive they would have hung Bush, Cheney, Rove and a slew of other criminals for treason by now.

Answer 5

Clinton's impeachment was about lying to Grand Jury. A felony. (Remember, liberals are demanding Scooter Libby be sent to jail for the same thing... ironic huh?).
Bush will not be impeached. To be impeached you must be guilty of "High Crimes and Misdemeanors" (which lying to a Grand Jury is btw, but lets not go there). It will take a huge stretch of imagination to argue that anything Bush has down is a High Crime or Misdemeanor, and Democrats are more than aware that any attempt to impeach Bush will appear to be petty and trying to get back for the Clinton Impeachment. They also know that Republicans were punished at the polls for impeaching Clinton, and they would be too.
Sorry to let you down liek this.

Answer 6

Clinton's impeachment was NOT Divorce Court material. He wasn't impeached on those charges. It had more to do with the military intelligence that was sold to the Communist Chinese by his administration. And as far as Bush is concerned.... What legitimate charges will you bring against him to be able to impeach him much less put him to death? And I certainly don't remember Bush 43 wishing death be the demise of anyone except Bin Laden, who by the way, would want you to die - kuffar.

Answer 7

Both are equally worse. Impeachment is for "high crimes", which does not fit either Bush or Clinton. It is time we stop all the whining and crying because we dislike or disagree with the sitting President, and instead start worrying about the real problems facing our nation and our world. Otherwise you are just part of the problem, not the solution.

Answer 8

Clinton was nearly impeached for lying about cheating his wife.
This president lied to congress(Iraq has wmd remember[don't say he didn't know])started unjustified wars, Led the country to near bankruptcy. Got 1000's of his countrymen killed in terrorist attacks and wars, and even more foreigners. He turned his back
on his people when they needed him most (remember Katrina)
And he should just get impeached. In most states you can get a death sentence if you commit one murder. So How many death sentences should we line mr Bush up for.

Answer 9

Sorry Charlie, Clinton was impeached for lying under oath. If he would have said, none of your business, or Hey, I'm just a guy trying to get laid...., I would have had much more respect for him and there would not have been anything impeachable.

As far as Bush goes, I'm sure you do not agree with his polices. He has tried to break new ground with the presidential war powers act. Since he is the president, it is his purview to call upon them. Until it reaches and is ruled on by the supreme court, one can only speculate wither or not he was out of bounds.
But it always has been unlawful to lie under oath.

Answer 10

Clinton fell into temptation and lied about it, live on TV. However
he later admitted his guilt and apologised. He is a great man and
leader and was not the first to get caught red handed. I would
say that, today, Clinton is possibly the greatest diplomat alive and
history will show him greater and, perhaps, the greatest of all.
Now Bush, sorry to say that he is just plain dumb and is unable
to make a decent speech, let alone run the world‘s greatest
power.
