Nope. At last count, close to 3000 American troops and God only knows how many innocent Iraqis have died because of Bush's lies. But try to explain that to a Bush supporter...all 300 of them that are left.

To date no one has proved that Mr. Bush lied about anything. Relying on faulty intelligence without knowing it is faulty does not constitute lying to the nation. Everyone, and I mean everyone, the UN, Democrats and Republicans believed that Iraq possessed weapons of mass destruction before the invasion. Further, he did not lie about Hussein supporting terrorism. Presidential detractors have this bad habit of forgetting certain facts when preaching their claims. Try remembering this one, Saddam Hussein paid 25,000 dollar bounties to families of suicide bombers. Now you can look at this however you want, but it is by definition supporting terrorism. I don't have a problem with investigations of the administration. I further don't have a problem with consequences against the President if impeachable offenses are proved. However, I am sick to death of people appointing themselves judge and jury while presenting unproved evidence as though it were absolute established fact. Lastly, lying is lying period. There are no degrees to it. When a president is proved to have lied as is the case with Mr. Clinton it is a serious credibility issue and every time someone tries to defend Clinton on this they also place their own credibility in question. When they further try to defend one while accusing another of the same offense which hasn't been proved they also place doubt on their own integrity in general.

Mr. Bush became compelled into taking a stand re: 9/11. If Clinton had had the *balls* to take into attention all the education, GWB does no longer have had to take the stand he did! what's your genuine *freaking* element.

INVALID QUESTION
Clinton was more interested in his activities with Monica than in examining the evidence against one Osama bin Ladin for the 1993 World Trade Center bombings. The evidence tying him to it was overwhelming by 1998 when Sudan arrested ObL and offered him to the US, only to be turned down by the Clinton Administration. Lets remember this shall we?
It was 1987! At a lecture the other day they were playing an old news video of Lt.Col. Oliver North testifying at the Iran-Contra hearings during the Reagan Administration.
There was Ollie in front of God and country getting the third degree, but what he said was stunning!
He was being drilled by a senator; "Did you not recently spend close to $60,000 for a home security system?"
Ollie replied, "Yes, I did, Sir."
The senator continued, trying to get a laugh out of the audience, "Isn't that just a little excessive?"
"No, sir," continued Ollie.
"No? And why not?" the senator asked.
"Because the lives of my family and I were threatened, sir."
"Threatened? By whom?" the senator questioned.
"By a terrorist, sir" Ollie answered.
"Terrorist? What terrorist could possibly scare you that much?"
"His name is Osama bin Laden, sir" Ollie replied.
At this point the senator tried to repeat the name, but couldn't pronounce it, which most people back then probably couldn't. A couple of people laughed at the attempt. Then the senator continued. Why are you so afraid of this man?" the senator asked.
"Because, sir, he is the most evil person alive that I know of", Ollie answered.
"And what do you recommend we do about him?" asked the senator.
"Well, sir, if it was up to me, I would recommend that an assassin team be formed to eliminate him and his men from the face of the earth."
The senator disagreed with this approach, and that was all that was shown of the clip.
By the way, that senator was Al Gore!
Let us also never forget......
Terrorist Mohammad Atta blew up a bus in Israel in 1986. The Israelis captured, tried and imprisoned him. As part of the Oslo agreement with the Palestinians in 1993, Israel had to agree to release so-called "political prisoners."
However, the Israelis would not release any with blood on their hands. The American President at the time, Bill Clinton, and his Secretary of State, Warren Christopher, "insisted" that all prisoners be released.
Thus Mohammad Atta was freed and eventually thanked the US by flying an airplane into Tower One of the World Trade Center This was reported by many of the American TV networks at the time that the terrorists were first identified.
It was censored by the UN from all later reports.
Lies or incompetence, there is much more innocent blood on Clinton's hands than on President Bush's.

Actually if you want to know, yes they did. When Clinton was being investigated for old "banking issues" (use that loosely), there was either 2 or 3 (I can't remember exactly) people who were involved who died mysteriously. Do you remember that?

No foreign BODY died, when Clinton lied, because he didn't do his job as a president. He sat on a fat couch, eating McDonalds cheeseburger's, and having his "parts" sucked, while our soldiers were murdered by terrorists on the Cole, in Yemen. And he did NOTHING about it. He was too busy to protect America. What happened in Yemen was an act of WAR, but he did NOTHING! Is that the kind of leader you want?

Clinton was good at lying, Bush couldn't tell a lie if it hit him in the face. Clinton was a good president, although he lied, everything in America was surplussed and not so much inflation. Now look at it inflation is extremely high and Bush is a dumb *** for sending troops into Iraq instead of focusing on Afghanistan.

no, we can't say the same for Bush. Also, Bush went about going into a war in a country that was less threatening than others at the time. No direct connection between Saddam's government and the terrorists was ever found.
So it has little to do with terrorism and more to do with dirty minds like those of Donald Rumsfeld.
Yeah, Saddam may have been a nuisance and a genocist, but at the time there were a lot of them in other parts of the world and even more threatening to the U.S. but why Iraq?

Your right, people find justification for impeaching a president with a sexual problem. For some reason a President with a sexual problem is so much worse than a President who has caused war, chaos, fed coruption and responsible for the loss of American and innocent Iraqi lives.......
However the American People are not only too proud to admit they have a failure of a president now who has lied to us over and over again, but they even re-elect him after he's allowed this country to fall to pieces, and not even keep his word of getting those responsible for 9/11 - Bin Ladin.....
Where is Bin Ladin? Where is the retribution he promised? Oh thats right, we got Sa Dam Hussien........ oh yeah, but he wasn't involved in 9/11. And we got more troops in Iraq...... oh yeah, Bin Ladin in in Afganistan where we are decreasing our troop numberes? Doesn't sound like we were ever really after him with the intent to catch him, just to ingnite and justify the conflict in Iraq! ........ YET he is still our president?!!!!!
Instead he's (pres. Bush) managed to destroy this country and Iraq as well, killing patriotic soliders who have and will die for his personal agenda, being responsible for widowing families, responsible for the ever growing deficite, new laws that impose on peoples civil rights and liberties and it can keep going......
Yes Bush lied, many many people have died!
All for what? Only he know the truth to that question. Of course he'll tell people what they want to hear, or what sounds really good, but its far from the truth.
