Clinton slams media, Starr's investigation after library opening

Yeah, he shouldn't have been impeached. And he is not a sexualy moral person as far as fidelity is concerned. But there is more to morality than not cheating on your wife. I think Clinton policies were very much moral. Not handing down huge amounts of debt to your children is a moral policy, IMO.

Frankly, I made no comparison between Clinton and anyone else, you did. So, whatever strawman you're trying to erect, please bash it to the ground and burn it now because it's doing you no good whatsoever.

Your false sense of outrage of Clinton's lie and your continued support of a habitual liar is what I'm referring to.

I voted for Clinton twice. I have never voted for Bush. So take your imaginary accusatory bullsheeite elsewhere foo.

A hundred years from now history will be be describing the Clinton impeachment and so-called scandals along the lines of the Salem witch hunts of our colonial days. Public hysteria and tragic results for no reason at all. The GOP did a magnificent job of manipulating our legal system and public opinion. Perhaps it was entertaining for some, but it certainly hurt our country.
Facts or opinion?

George W. Bush, President of the United States
given documents he thought were true

AFAIK, Bush himself never even saw the documents.

failed to thoroughly investigate the facts
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It's not the president's responsibility to "investigate the facts." The CIA and George "Slam Dunk" Tenet were supposed to do that and failed, pasing bad info on to Bush.
quote:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
reported documents to the American people as true to make his case
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Erm...that's because his intelligence advisors told him it was true. It was also based on information from the UK which was not related to the Niger documents.
Bush's claim was not a lie either:

But what he said ? that Iraq sought uranium ? is just what both British and US intelligence were telling him at the time. So Bush may indeed have been misinformed, but that's not the same as lying.

when confronted with the facts, twisted the truth and stonewalled an investigation

If you're going to slam someone on facts you better have your straight. Your assertion is untrue:
http://www.washingtonpost.com/...Jun12?language=printer
A White House spokesman said yesterday, "We have acknowledged that some documents detailing a transaction between Iraq and Niger were forged and we no longer give them credence. They were, however, only once piece of evidence in a larger body of evidence suggesting Iraq attempted to purchase uranium from Africa."
As to the investigation, it's ongogin but going slowly. Maybe you should gripe about the democratic Senator Jay Rockafeller, since it's his baby and ask him why he's dragging his feet? Is there something the democrats don't want to divulge about these forgeries? Considering their recent involvement with other forgeries, I certainly wouldn't put it past them to have done these as well.
Here are some documents and reports on the case:

Clinton's problem was that he was the quintessential American. The most powerful man in the world and yet, vulnerable. I think all the moralistic sh!ts on this board and elsewhere in the US hated him because he was what they were - but better. I've lived in the US long enough to know that you bumfvcks criticizing Clinton's morality are fvcking hypocrites, nothing more. Yeah, you Genx87, are a fvcking hypocrite.
Facts, with a larger agreement on the state of america's hypocisy in morality crisis:

In justifying the reasons to goto war in iraq Bush stated in a speech:
"The threat comes from Iraq. It arises directly from the Iraqi regime's own actions -- its history of aggression, and its drive toward an arsenal of terror. Eleven years ago, as a condition for ending the Persian Gulf War, the Iraqi regime was required to destroy its weapons of mass destruction, to cease all development of such weapons, and to stop all support for terrorist groups. The Iraqi regime has violated all of those obligations. It possesses and produces chemical and biological weapons. It is seeking nuclear weapons. It has given shelter and support to terrorism, and practices terror against its own people."
The duelfer repost showed these claims as false. I don't know about you but in my world a person who speaks falsehoods is a LIAR. BUT THIS THREAD IS NOT ABOUT BUSH. If you want to debate whether Bush is a liar just do a search there are tons of threads and discussions on P&N about this. 🙂

Of course most people are morons who like being spoonfed whatever the conservative media tells them.
Clinton dropped hundreds of bombs on Iraq in hopes of taking out Saddam, his weapon sites, and his cronies in the 4-5 days of Operation Desert Fox. But he obviously failed miserably.
Who knows how manyc innocent people Clinton killed during Operation Desert Fox.
Man Clinton was just bad all around eh :roll:
