Remember how they whined and whined when Clinton was in office? Remember how they impeached him for lying; but have not even hinted at impeachment for bushie who has killed innocent iraq's, has stolen elections; and has sabotaged the Clean Air Act? What are we to make of this?

Politics as usual, what else?

Um, are you serious? I thought this was going to be a serious question.
If you would like to see an example of whining or of "sore losers", look at the 2004 election aftermath. The pilgrimages to Canada, the suicides, etc. While you chastize republicans for "whining" about Clinton, you do the very same about Bush right within your own post. At least some of the things they said about Clinton were true.
What is true is that people like to criticize. I think most of the criticism our presidents get (and I mean all presidents) is unfair or unfounded. You provide an excellent example of this. Bush never stole the 2000 election, that's a myth. Nor did he invade Iraq for oil and to kill innocent civilians, just like Clinton didn't attack Serbia or bomb Iraq to escape the Monica situation. Those are myths. Say it with me, "myths". And I have absolutely no clue what you're even trying to say about the Clean Air Act. Bush has been a greener president than Clinton by far.
Its painfully clear that you've already made up your mind on this. I just wish you had come to your conclusion a bit better informed.

What do Republican have to be sore about? We have had one of our guys in office 28 of the last 40 years and 20 of the last 28.
Based on what I expect to be a vicious fight between Hillary and Obama I wouldn't count out the Republican yet for '08.
Edit - I forgot to address "stole the election". Don't you guys get tired of this? Do you think that saying it enough times makes it true? If that was the case I would be dating Rebbecca Romjin. There have been many reports including one by the NY Times stating there was no wrongdoing in the 2000 election. Get over it. If you guys would propose a plan instead of just calling names and slinging mud more people would be behind you. Look at the '04 elections. John Kerry still couldn't beat a weak George Bush. Its still about ideas people, not badmouthing the other guy.

No. I remember that Republicans didn't complain when Nixon was impeached, but How the democrats whine that a president breaking the law was no big deal, when Clintons was undergoing impeachment. Or should I carry on and on on how we should distract are President with legal action on the Valerie Plame case because we will distract the President from keeping AMerica safe from Terrorist. The knife cuts both ways. If you want the Republicans to obey the law, you have to prosecute Democratic lawbreakers with out prejudice.

Unfortunately politics have divided this nation. It's time for a 3rd, 4th or 5th party.
Democracy works better by allowing the citizen to chose from the most options.
I'll be labeled as a freak, but I think Bicameral legislation is the chains on humanity. It only gives you "Black & White"! Most people believe in Grey.

You can't truthfully say that about *any* group (except maybe the Selfish Sore Losers Club). That said, it does seem that some of the more outspoken Republican mouthpieces want it both ways--it's okay to attack the president when he's Clinton but not when he's Bush? Tsk tsk tsk. Here's hoping the Democrats don't act the same way although, group-think being what it is, some of them probably will as well--and some Republicans will try to make blanket statements about *them*

They are selfish, but not sore losers. If they can't win honestly, they cheat and win anyways, but you already knew that. We are all just pawns in Bushes global conquest. Democrats and Replublicans don't give a sh*t about you. Don't think so? Look at Americas new Democratic Congress, they are supposed to represent us, we being the majority of Americans who wanted a change. Yet to date they have failed to do anything to stop a president who got elected without winning the popular vote. Democracy is a JOKE!! Move to Canada.

I'm just going to guess that you've forgotten all about the 2000 election and the Florida re-count? There's plenty of sore losers in both parties, but you seem to only want to focus on the Republications. Hmmmm...I wonder why?
The only thing I make of this is that you are obviously a political partisan who sees everything through Bush-bashing lenses.
Oh well, each to his own.

The only sore losers are you and the rest of the liberals. We aren't in Iraq to kill innocents, and the election that he "stole" was 7 years ago, so get over it. And im pretty sure perjury is a federal offense.

No.
I only know Liberals are real sore losers. I think they still whined about 2000 and 2004.
