It just shows that the only scandal for which he was caught was the one in which someone talked. There were plenty of scandals for which he and Hillary should have been prosecuted if only their partners had talked or they didn't destroy evidence.

<<This Starr/Clinton hide and seek is a political attack on the person of Clinton to unseat the Presidency. Get it.>>

I tend to agree, but that doesn't excuse Clinton from the consequences of his actions.

<<the fact that he lied about an affair and attempted to hide it is not a high crime against anyone but himself and his family, its certainly not a crime intended against the state or to defraud or use his office. >>

I agree here, too. However, I don't believe that an impeachment will be based solely on this one issue. If there isn't a clear pattern of abuse of power or corruption, I doubt the general public would support impeachment, and I doubt the Republicans or the Democrats would have the cojones to pursue it without the support of the public.

No. I don't get it. He's clearly abused his office to hide his reprehensible behavior. End of story. Resign or be impeached. Has nothing to do with "sex." JLA
