When Clinton lied-nobody died ( not to mention the disgraceful acts of Starr and the right wing attack dogs). Over 3000 Americans and untold tens of thousands of innocent Iraqi civillians have died for a madman's dream. How is this and a BJ comparable?

On an overall scale, the aforementioned lies of the Bush administration has caused far more trouble. The problem is that Clinton lied under oath, which Bush has yet to do. Lying under oath is an action no president should take. A good argument to be made is the question of why Clinton was being interrogated about his personal affairs under oath. Many presidents have had affairs and mistresses, including, I believe, G.H.W. Bush. Why was he never placed under oath and asked about his personal life? I think the fact that President G.W. Bush would not go under oath in front the 9/11 commission is proof, that if anything, he learned from Clinton's mistake. When Bush is going to lie, as he has, he will not lie under oath, making it much more difficult to catch the slimy bastard and his cronies.

If President Bush's response to 9 11 and false intelligence reports is a lie, than what about those who submitted the reports. President Bush responded to 9 11 the way a majority of the country wanted. The baby boomer population does not understand war, it is not won by kindness, diplomacy at the UN level failed, therefore alternatives were necessary. Also, have they forgotten all ready, Desert Storm and the aggressor, Saddam Husein against Kuwait. I guess Mr. Bush should have done the same thing, Clinton, did in Haiti, let the then president go into exile cushioned with millions of US $$$. Perhaps the greatest lie, Clinton should be known for is the lie of mission, the gutless act of not dealing with Bin laden when the opportunity availed itself. If he had, would there have been a 9 11?

Bush has been trained to be a pathalogical liar by his upbringing(CIA). The whole family is in denial, they are just lurking around and holding themselves back, because they are just dying to tell us all to go to hell! And tell us that we are inferior and they are the Gods just like the Pharoahs eh? Can't you see that everytime that guy squints his eyes and his mouth twists up when he is angry and wants to tell the truth but is compelled to lie? His Dad was arrogant plus some, and would walk away like he was right and no one had the right to question him. Bush appeals to your sympathy and fear, and digs in with his sales pitches and arrogantly feels you should like him because he is the son of a, well you know the rest! So yes his lies kill people just like he did as governor of Texas, 100 people executed without DNA testing?
The nerve of that bastard! Now Texas state faces plenty of lawsuits and hatreds all over this country have started fires in their hearts,and minds! Men who talk with fork tongues are truly evil and should be stopped! Hidden Agendas that is all it is! Clinton was a liar too, but he did not kill people! He did in his heart feel for the public, he really was raised as a Southern boy, and Bush is a Yankee! Big freaking difference! and Clintons daddy was not a big arab supporting mogul or cia, or a liar to the public as a president as well! Big freakin difference eh?

People tend to believe that there are really 2 kinds of lies, white lies that are spoken to alleviate heart and despair and black lies that are meant to harm. What we forget is that a lie is a lie is a lie. As I have referred to Dr. Martin Luther King before, when he said, "There is never a good time to do a bad thing."

There is a big difference between a little white sex lie and a big national security lie. Clinton lied about sex and no one was killed, Bush and Company lied about Iraq and we have lost over 3000 people. AND, as time keeps going by, we find that those who lied, even Bush, knew that they lied. I didn't like Saddam, but was it right to invade a country, ruin it's landscape, hang it's dectator because we didn't like him????

It is no where close to being comparable. But then again we live in a country where the major news story today was who fathered Anna Nicole Smith's daughter! I don't get it.

Why? Because that is the best they can do to defend their Idol Bush.
How? By repeating the hyperbole they hear on delusional right-wing talk radio.

Bush's lies are plentiful and well-documented.
I'm not going to list them myself because they literally go on and on for pages but here are some links:

Thing is, Bush didn't lie. Evil Muslim terrorists killed 3,000 innocent Americans in 9/11/01 and Bush is showing balls (something liberals don't have) by fighting terror around the world. Our troops knew that there was a chance for combat, it's a volunteer army. He acted upon info the CIA gave him, and it was the best info available at the time. And big deal if Iraq didn't have WMDs, at least we ousted the genocidal Saddam Hussein.

What exactly did Bush lie about?
Clinton committed adultery sounds like a sin to me.
What did Bush do? Followed the information that was presented to him by our intelligence committees.
LIE? What LIE?
And Saddam was strung up by his people not the President.
