Only in America would that be seen as a more serious offense than starting a
war on false pretenses.

You assume that because the intelligence didn't prove to be entirely correct
that it was a fabrication, but I've seen no evidence of that being true. I've
looked at the same intelligence, most of it is available at the UN or
www.globalintelligence.com, or even at the CIA website, and it all pointed to
the same conclusion, that Saddam was still pursueing programs to develop WMD.
The only difference in any of the was to the extent he was being successful and
how to deal with it.

Intelligence is often inaccurate. The bad guys are trying to keep you from
finding things out and often your source of information is indirect. Even
Humintel can get chancy, these sources often have scores to settle or their own
agenda.

The real offense Clinton committed was that the prejured himself when
questioned about the having oral sex. Even that really didn't go very far.

Only in America could getting accurate confirmation of intelligence before
starting a war be of greater importance than telling the truth about who you
had oral sex with.

Keenan, I think you meant ....Lesser importance .... in order to
maintain the sarcasm. We may not have our facts straight, but at least
you could keep your sarcasm straight!! TnT

Er. Thanks. I'm not being sarcastic. It's true. I can't think of any other
country where the sexual habits of the president would be more important
than the waging of war.

Well, that's the same country that enshrines guns in the Constitution
but considers a woman's bare breast to be a threat to children.

Ooo. That's a good one.

Also there's the opposition to stem cell research but support for the death
penalty.

Saw a CNN poll yesterday where 80% of the population thought it was OK for
gays and lesbians to serve in the military, but 55% thought that same-sex
marriages ought to be illegal.
