If it had been anybody but President Bill Clinton, he'd have been convicted.
Nixon resigned because he knew that his party wouldn't back him when the truth came out. Clinton didn't even have THAT shred of decency in him, to resign for the good of both his party and the country.
I hope the Democrats think it was worth it to save his ass...because it sundered this country as surely as Secession in 1861 did. I truly believe that we're either going to see a dissolution of this country, or outright civil war. There's no other real option at this point. And it's going to be bloody when it comes.

Hey share that LSD don't be greedy.
If you think Clinton's lie to protect himself and his family is any worse than Bush's lie to the american people which resulted in the deaths of thousands and thousands of innocent people then you sir are on crack.
If I was standing before God and he was judging me i'd much rather tell him I cheated on my wife and then lied about it then tell him I lied so that I could kill thousands of innocent people.
