Not that I think Bush was insincere....I am simply pointing out the weakness of your post as a bebuttal, and the tendency to sideline, or whitewash the debate by redirecting it. I have noticed this defense of our current Administration on a regular basis, and noted also, that by doing so we quite effectively postpone or disregard the discussion of what accually occured. Instead focusing on the actions of others to justify a situation that may be distastful.

So a simple question here:

By qualifying Mr Bushs' actions, and placing them in the context of Clintons/Renos Lies....are you in effect admitting to a belief that he is guilty of the charge?
