You know what I feel about him, How???


Because your response is typical and I've seen it dozens of times from
those who try to "condemn" the man based on one act that had practically
zip to do with the job.


Um, it doesn't bother you that a seated (and married, sort of) president
used his power and influence to bop a cute (if slightly plump) little
intern in the Oval Office?


Um, even if it did I think I have enough sense not to base an entire 8 year
presidency on that single act. I didn't really care that much when I heard
Gingrich cheated on and then dumped his hospitalized wife either, other than
the hypocrisy was interesting to note. So unlike some I apply those
standards equally.

If your school board president was caught doing this, he'd be in prison
right now. Yet the president of the United States is above all that
because he "otherwise did a good job"?


In prison for what? Is sex illegal in your world? I don't know if you
realize it or not, but scarlet letters went out of fashion quite some time
ago.

What kind of standard is *that*?


The kind that are applied equally to both sides.

It doesn't bother you that a seated president then perjured himself by
lying under oath? If that were a Senator -- or you -- punishment would be
swift.


There was no perjury. Clinton was never convicted or even so much as
indicted for any such crime, or any other crime for that matter. If you're
not familiar with the facts of the situation, you should better educate
yourself before you comment.

Not only was the guy never punished, he instead wields great influence in
our morally bankrupt political system. Worse, the Democrats still get all
teary eyed about him. It would be funny if it weren't so sad.


So does John McCain, who cheated on and dumped his first wife and mother of
his children after she was disabled, yet still voted to remove Clinton from
office for his extramarital affair. Apparently he wields enough influence
to get a Presidential nomination.
