If Clinton was Impeached for LIES & Ommissions .......Why hasn't BUSH been IMPEACHED?

Question

All Clinton did was get a BJ, BUSH has started a war based upon lies,that has killed and mamed tens of thousands of our countrymen, not to mention the hundreds of thousands of innoscent civilians.

Answer 1

The only reason I can think of is that the Democratic majority isn't as petty as the Republican majority was in the nineties. Kenneth Star was hell bent on finding something, anything, to pin on Clinton. If the Democrats went after Bush like the Republicans went after Clinton there is no way that Bush wouldn't be impeached and convicted. Republicans should be grateful that Democrats are not as scummy as Republicans are.

Answer 2

Why don't you at least come close to facts before running your mouth? Then you wounder why people don't like liberal democrats - they don't check their facts or they just make up lies to suit their purpose.

In your questions you state that Clinton was impeached for LIES & OMMISSIONS. Then you down play it and say all Clinton did was get a BJ.

Well getting a BJ from Hillary may be a scarey thought. Getting a BJ from another woman is called adultry. Showes his moral character and lack of respect for law.

The LIES & OMMISSIONS weren't just to the media. It was under oath in court and to congress.

You forgot to mention imbezzelment, illegal campaign funds, etc.

Why hasn't Bush been impeached? He made good decisions based on poor intellegence. He hasn't killed or mamed tens of thousands of our countrymen. Look up the body count - less in this war on terror than in past wars. Hundreds of thousands of innoscent civilians. First your count is highly exaggerated and how do you know if their innoscent? Did you interview them?

Answer 3

Try to understand this. Mr. Clinton committed perjury. He lied under oath. This fact is not in dispute. If he had been honest about the fact that he got that unimportant BJ we would not be having this conversation. This is because while many Americans might not have liked it, there would have no crime on which to base an impeachment proceeding. Mr. Bush has not been charged with any crime and no evidence has been presented that he has broken any law. Making war is not a crime even though maybe it should be. Congress saw the same intelligence, arrived at the same conclusion and authorized the use of force. So if we impeach Mr. Bush we also must impeach every sitting member of Congress who voted to allow these actions. Our system of justice is based on the concept of innocent until proved guilty, not guilty because I believe you are. Until someone presents legitimate evidence that a crime has been committed Mr. Bush will not and should not be impeached. I am not against investigations to find who know what and when they knew it, but I am just sick to death of calls for impeachment based solely on speculation without benefit of proper evidence.

Edit: To those posting Clinton wasn't impeached, you need to learn the definition of terms. Impeachment is the process. Clinton was impeached, he was not convicted based on the impeachment and was not removed from office. Doubt this statement, look up the definition for yourself.

Answer 4

Well...This is a good one. Clinton lied to a Grand Jury, and he was impeached (Not convicted but impeached) now him being a lawyer he should know better. If he would have told the truth then I think that it never would have happened. And I think that this whole things could have been avoided if Clinton would have done his job as POTUS...Which he didn't by not taking care of the terrorists that did do the attacks on the World Trade Center in 93.
And not to put a fine a point on it but if the UN would have been doing their job then this would not have happened, but it is the left minded radicals that make up the UN that let Sadam use his weapons on his own people and that is what they hung him for.

Answer 5

From 1994 – 2006, Republicans controlled Congress. That was bad news for Clinton and good new for Bush. If there was more time left in the Bush administration, you can be certain that Bush would be impeached and (unlike Clinton) likely found guilty and removed from office.

Answer 6

a million. Clinton replaced into impeached he replaced into not bumped off. comparable element happed to Andrew Johnson. 2. The Republicans have been by no potential going to question Bush (that could advise going up against one among their own, and all of us be responsive to which will by no potential ensue) and the Democrates and to poultry to do the terrific suited element. 3. i might by no potential impeach every physique until I even have the votes to do away with him as properly. Having impeachment hearings purely wastes a large form of tax payer money (simply by fact the Republicans be responsive to). So i does not decide for impeachment until i be responsive to that I even have what it takes to do away with that person. The Democrates knows they don't have that magical huge form, so what's the element. The Republicans additionally knew (for the time of Clinton) that they did not have the votes yet purely out of spite, and without the will of the persons, they wasted money. Fiscally in charge, outstanding.

Answer 7

I know, have oral sex at work and lie about it, get impeached. Order the illegal war disgracing our country and killing hundreds of thousands (over 1/3 children under the age of 9) and it's smooth sailing. I don't get it. The anniversary of the start of this illegal war is approaching. Here is a site that can give you some info on how you can make your voice heard this month. http://www.unitedforpeace.org/

I don't care if he is impeached or not, I just want him to be held accountable for his disastrous deeds.

Answer 8

Could it be that Clinton isn't as smart as Bush?

Answer 9

Bush didn't lie, that's why. There is a difference between lying, and repeating what was told to him by England, and our own CIA, and FBI. Clinton blatantly lied. You know that as well as I do.

Answer 10

It's a little more complex than that, honey. Clinton was under oath. Bush has never been questioned about anything under oath. Lying isn't illegal. Lying under oath is.
