Why won't impeachment of Bush be taken seriously when Clinton was impeached for lying about his personal life?

Question

I'm just saying....

Bush ( and his administration) misled a country into war, costing the country trillions of dollars and Iraq the loss of 100,000's citizens ( but I guess that doesn't matter much, does it...).

(I'm not saying Clinton didn't do anything worth being impeached for...)

Answer 1

May be  Bush thought that its useless to have a fight with a lady Clinton who is the citizen of nation as his. so he acted liberal.

Answer 2

the GOP spent 40 million of taxpayers money to try and impeach clinton. But only 15 million was spent by congress to look into 9/11 when nearly 3000 people lost their lives this total does not include the many who have lost their lives since due to this so-called war on terror. I think this sums up the ignorance and complacency of our elected officials in washington.

Answer 3

FIRST......Clinton did MORE than lie about his "personal life".... He committed pergury.....lied under oath......anyone else who would do that would have served time in a prison..... many are serving time in prison as we speak

SECOND..... Bush did not "mislead" anyone.....EVERYTHING he stated was true based on the information available..still is..... there were WMDs found......WMDs were even used on our troops......Saddams generals believed he had them......and indications are he had more than we thought.....

BUT even if he did mislead them (which he did not).... the Congress has access all the  information and is responsible to draw their own judgements......they have access to the CIA.....FBI.....military EVERYTHING.....  ALL of the Democrats believed the same thing President Bush believed......and said so...... Bush mislead no one.

the vast majority of innocent deaths in Iraq are from terrorists..... they stop buses and slaughter unarmed civilians......they bombed a police recruiting station yesterday....that is not America

Nobody in America has any fear of.....or anger toward the people of your country..... not even your President

Your link suggests that Bush tried to link Iraq to 911......not true.....I watched Bush on tv.....twice before the invasion ....tell the world there was NO LINK between 911 and Iraq......the war is NOT about 911.....the people who claim Bush mislead Congress are all from the opposing political party

Answer 4

Ignore those peoples comments mostly.

GEORGE BUSH IS THE BIGGEST CRIMINAL EVER!

AND HE DESERVES DEATH!

There is no bigger crime then sending a country into war under false Accusation.

But the Bushes (Actually he is a Rotschild) are Jews and as such they are Offspring of Aliens that landet on our Planet 14.400 Years ago.

They hide their knowledge in the "Occult" and Made Religion to Dumb us down.

Then they create war after war untill we are all killed.

On Dec 21 2012 an Extrasolar Planet crosses our path and will create floods and Earthquakes.

We can prepare for it as a global community.

But the Bushes who are really Jews and The Freemasons who are their Henchman want us all dead.

Why not telling us about so we can prepare?

Because it is WWIII.

They want to create one in Iran.

But WWIII is us against the Jews.

Either we win this Time and live in peace from then on or they destroy our planet.

Genocide is their Game: From Native Americans to Palestine.

Answer 5

Clinton committed PERJURY (That would be a crime for you folks that keep beating this very dead horses bones).

Bush has not committed a crime therefore won't be impeached.  Try to keep up we got passed this one over a year ago.

Answer 6

The republican majority in the mid 90's was impressive. The democrats today don't have anywhere near that type of a majority. There were many democrats would voted for the impeachment of President Clinton. In the end, Clinton won out. Yeah he was a lil' sleazy but he proved an effective president. (That's not a value judgement, per se. I'm not saying what he did was good or bad, I personally disagree with several of his policies, BUT he was able to execute them with relative success) There have been impeachment attempts but they don't have the political impetus that the clinton proceedings did.

Its also much easier for people to admonish an adulterer than a man who may have led the country into an unjust war. I think the Democrats are really to blame here. They don't have the political cojones to do what they feel is right. I don't know if Bush needs to be impeached, but they seem to be WAY to conciliatory for my taste. But then again they have little to gain from these last two years. And if you don't like Bush he's gone in a few months.

Yeah interesting question though.

Answer 7

Bush didnt commit any crimes

Clinton did

thats the difference

Answer 8

Because you have to have proof.

You only have hate.

Answer 9

Clinton's trail was a dog and pony show in a kangaroo court set up by the GOP. If any of us were brought before a judge on what Bill and Monica did it would have been thrown out of court immediately. In short, he would have been asked any questions to incriminate himself to begin with. Get it?

I swear, republicans are sociopaths that are incapable of feeling shame or embarrassment.

Answer 10

Did anyone even read the sources this man provided?

Clinton was impeached, but if he was delt with properly he would be in jail. 10 days before Bush gave his first speach on Iraq he was presented with the NIE. The NIE is the National Inteligence Estimate of all 16 intelligence agencies in the U.S. In it, they conculuded that Sadam was NOT a threat. Bush had a summary made up with that part left out. This makes him guilty of about a few hundred thousand if not over one million counts of Homicide. In fact the war was planed out as far back as 98-2000 under the Project For A New American Century. You can find the almost 100 page document entitled Rebuilding Americas Defenses online. However I don't think the audience of this forum has the mental capacity to actually do that kind of research. So I will provide a PDF document for you. Bush, and Rumsfeld, and Cheney, and Rove, and Rice should all be Imprisoned. Rumsfield is ON TAPE, saying that we need a NEW South Korean syle dictator to replace Saddam, and that America needs to be attacked again to get into Iran. These people are criminals. The man who sent Charles Manson to jail plans on going after these people. He has never lost a case in his history, and said that he would not be coming out of retirement now(hes in his 70's-80's i'd imagine) if he didn't know for a fact that he had evidence to bring them down. Lets pray to God that justice is done. Either here on Earth, or after...

Answer 11

I agree but I don't want the defense lobbyist, d**k Cheney as my president either. Look down the line, next would be Pelosi and then Rice.

Woulds we really be better off with them?! Seems like a lose lose situation to me.

Bush DID mislead us into war, I voted for Bush and I am not so arrogant not to be able to admit when I was wrong. You would have to be some kind of idiot not to see we were mislead. Bush has a 27% approval rating. Many more than 27% of the nation is republican, this just goes to show how disliked he is by both parties.

I am not saying Clinton was any better.

Could it just be folks...GASP....

That they are all sell outs who do not have your best interests at heart?

Answer 12

umm bush didnt mislead?my two daughters and grandson are better off without saddam in power,one less maddman to deal with!!!

Answer 13

Cliton got impreached for lying "under oath" which would of been an obvious and direct cause for impeachment, and how do you know that bush wasn't mislead himself or made a mistake or that we are doing the right thing (we usually find out more after their presidency). They know more on whats going on than we do usually.
