I don't give Bush a pass for his dishonesty but even excluding the perjury factor I don't see him as being nearly the liar Clinton was. I understand you disagree. In fact I think I could handle both sides of the debate, I've heard it all before and been around and around and around with the same issue.

And what if Bush were under oath and asked about any extra-marital affairs he's ever had? Would you support that line of questioning?

Only if the affairs were relevant. The affairs where somewhat relevant in Clinton's case, and Clinton signed the law that insisted they where relevant. If Bush was in the same exact situation than yes I would support that line of questioning. I might support the law being repealed, but the person who signed it should not be immune from it. The governor (Clinton was governor when he signed the law and also when the alleged sexual harassment took place) or the president, should not be above the law, most esp. when they themselves supported and signed the law.
