When Clinton lied, you could hear the audible gasp from America's rightcolumn. Where is the outrage now?

Where you as outraged with Janet Reno and her behavior? Where was the outrage when 400 FBI files of prominent republicans were found in the Clinton White House. That alone was worse than any surveillance program instituted by the Bush administration. At least they have been trying to combat terrorists unlike the previous administration.
As usual there is a double standard when Dems are in charge. Shouldn't the same rules apply to both administrations?
The issue described in your link is a BS one. There are so many more important issues neglected by the Bush administration that should be investigated by Congress (like non-enforcement of immigration laws, porous borders, excessive domestic spending on questionable programs,...)

first, after testimony he has an option of altering his testimony.
So congress must wait to see if he does what he did last time, and write them a letter changing the story he can remember.
From there its on!!!
He really backed himself in a wall.
Now hes completely contradicting himself and documents, so its going to be fun to see how he squirms his way out of this one.
But heres the thing -- #1, Dems know it will take longer than his term to impeach him.
#2 - even if his is cited for perjury, look at what happened with Libby

He hasn't been tried! You're treating him as guilty until proved innocent!
THAT'S outrageous! Have you abandoned every just principle in your body?
Goodness sake.
We're tired of this. It is just to pursue an inquiry and try him if it is found to be appropriate (if so, I hope they do). Otherwise, this kind of post is about as unpatriotic as you can get.
There is no perjury, until it is proved. Until then you are just showing that you are ignorant of our basic rights, or deliberately ignoring them for political bigotry.
I'm a Democrat. That means justice comes first, not political vendettas.

Because Clinton was up against a republican congress from day one.
Bush has still got his cronies all around him.
Which reminds me.......where has Condaleeza been?
Hiding?
