I don't know that I'd trivialize watergate that much - that was a corrupt power grab that resulted in the short-circuiting of democracy. It was pretty serious stuff. So was Iran Contra, since it involved giving aid to our enemies.
Now, I wouldn't object to saying Bush has done more DAMAGE to this country than any previous president.
And you're right, they'll bring up Clinton as their excuse.
Let's see what the charges are.
Bush has borrowed more money than all the other presidents in history combined.
Clinton got a blowjob.
Bush selectively used intel to justify an unjustifiable war.
Clinton got a blowjob.
Bush has killed 2000+ American soldiers.
Clinton got a blowjob.
Bush has killed 30,000+ Iraqi civilians.
Clinton got a blowjob.
Bush has taken an already unstable region and plunged it into what will be decades of extreme instability, with US national security implications that we can't even imagine.
Clinton got a blowjob.
Bush just admitted he would have invaded Iraq even if it had been conclusively proven that there were no WMDs, despite the fact that his whole prewar justification came down to WMDs.
Clinton got a blowjob.
You get the idea.
So they can bring up Clinton all they want, but fortunately we're not only onto their little trick, we also realize that the charges against Clinton are pretty silly compared with what Bush has done.
