Come on Bob. IT IS CALLED PERJURY! I am shouting because that was
posted at least twice on the List in the past day, and I know full well
that you know what crime is at stake here. And yet, you somehow can't
connect the two?
But I forgot, lying is only criminal when Republicans do it.
But at any rate, why *was* Clinton compelled to testify truthfully in the
Paula Jones case? It was because Clinton himself pushed a law through
Congress called the "Violence Against Women Act" that made a man's entire
sexual curriculum vitae fair game in any claim of sexual harrassment. So
let us be clear here, Clinton did not just undermine the foundations of
America's judicial system by committing perjury - he did so because he felt
that the provisions of his own law should not apply to him.
If any Republican ever committed so craven an act, all the liberals on this
List would be allllll over him and the coming "police state in America."
And yet, Democrats couldn't stomach impeaching their criminal President,
even though the Constitution expressly provides for such a situation by
virtue of allowing the President to name a hand-picked successor as
Vice-President.
Of course, the last laugh is on all you liberals who despair so much about
this Bush Presidency.... because I think that it is almost absolutely
certain that an incumbent Al Gore running for re-election with a
rip-roaring economy wins either New Hampshire or Florida to continue a
potential 10-year Presidency.
Ah.... what could have been, eh?
