Politics has always sucked & NOBODY from those "Elite" have ever been held responsible......I want them to pay for all of the young men who have died, The lies they have told & their greed!!

I disagree with the Repugs that have answered & The people who sent me horrible E-mails can just blow themselves!!!
Clinton lied, yes BUT Bush has killed many people, ours & others FOR NO REASON!!! We got hurt because of 9/11 but war solves nothing!!!
To the guy who lost his son, I'm sorry for your loss.

My hope is someday the will be a war crimes trial in the world court similar to those trial held after WWII for the Nazis, not only for the nearly 4,000 troops lost, but for the 500,000 Iraqis killed.
To equate this with Clinton's actions is to say a lie is as bad a murder in the courts eyes. To refresh those with selective memories, Clinton was impeached, but the committee that impeach him concluded that a criminal trail was not warranted. So if you did not agree with the decision, the people you need to blame are the people you supported to impeach him.
Two wrong do not make a right anyways. the question was if this war is wrong, not if someone else did something wrong as well.

Well there have cerainly been some brave men & women killed keeping America a safer place. It is so easy to sit back and take pot shots and make comments about how we were lied to. I for one believe Clinton should have stood up and been the leader he should have when he KNEW what was truely going on but he was too busy with his girl friend to be the president he should have been.
I have lost a son six weeks ago in Iraq and know he was there to help the country get past the evil that prevailed. I am proud that my hero of a son chose to defend our way of life and protect our values here in America.
And to get to your point on being held responsible for the mistakes....We are only given a taste of what REALLY goes on in respect to the good of the Nation or more globally, the world economy and welfare.
Thank you.

enable me enable you recognize a touch secret, Lisa. GW became an Air stress fighter pilot. possibly which skill little to you, yet to those that are attentive to all that involves, it skill he became an extremely clever guy or woman. otherwise, he'd have by no skill been allowed in that cockpit. he isn't a solid public speaker, yet then few human beings are. He often times listens to propose he wouldn't have, yet then who hasn't carried out a similar difficulty. Mr. Bush feels the shortcoming of those armed forces human beings a lot extra deeply than you do, I promise you. merely because of the fact he has the heart to do what he believes is powerful and is not afraid to make a command determination, merely because of the fact he does not placed on his emotions on his sleeve does not advise he's a foul guy or woman. to the choice, that's the mark of a guy. You goofy liberals circulate forward and chew on him. the those that count number understand extra advantageous.

Please explain why the sudden interest in people being held responsible for their actions?
Where was this when Bill Clinton got a pass for Perjury, or when Hillary got a pass for illegal possession of FBI files and for Whitewater? How about Pelosi's responsibility for meeting with Syria's president? Harry Reid for his words encouraging our enemies? Al Sharpton's part in several riots and the Tawana Brawley matter? O.J. Simpson getting away with murder? Dan Rather presenting forgeries as genuine? Ted Kennedy and the death of MaryJo Kopechne?
I could go on.
So, you want to hold politicians accountable like everyone else?
Couldn't we set the sights a little higher?

Look at the facts, Clinton lied on the witness stand, under oath in a court of law and nothing happened when he admitted to the lie. You can not expect a different standard based on political party.

Well Bush and Cheney should be impeached, but they should be allowed to keep their position in office, just like Clinton. I'd rather have a lame duck President and Vice President, than have Nancy Peolsi in the office of the Presidency.

Yes they should be tried and executed, for their crimes. They should be held accountable, to a higher standard of justice. That goes for Clinton, Bush the first loser, Reagan.

I agree I've been saying it for years. They should be accountable for each and every life lost in this made up WAR.
Each death and lie that led up to it should be counted individually and that way they would be in jail forever.

9/11 was not a mistake, it was planned and carried out by elements of our gov't. If you don't belive this, i highly suggest you do the research.
