Pat:Having sex with an intern is not a crime. Lying about it under oath is a crime. ....Clinton's crimes have no more to do with politics than with sex. It is irrelevant what he lied about.All that counts is that he lied under oath. Reasonable , logical , and fair mean?!! In Saudi Arabia if someone steals a pack of gum they cut his hand off. Tell me, is that a reasonable thing to do?! I bet once we start copying the Saudi Arabian laws here in the US, our jails will have so much room we can use them as shelters for our homeless people. I am at a loss really to explain why people keep trying to defend Clinton. Reasonable people are defending the country. Can you imagine what the impeachment trial of the president (over his sex lies ) in the senate would do to the country as a whole?! And I am not talking about the economy, the normal business of government, and our international responsibilities. I am talking about the deep wound and division that the trial would create in the country. If you are a republican, surely you should know the following statements made by President Abraham Lincoln (whom I believe would be ashamed of his republican party affiliation if he was alive and knew that Bob Barr, Tom Delay and the honorable Henry the Hide disguised themselves under the republican party). President Lincoln in his second inaugural address stated the following:"...With malice toward none; with charity for all; with firmness in the right, as God gives us to see the right, let us strive on to finish the work we are in; to bind up the nation's wounds; to care for him who shall have borne the battle, and for his widow, and his orphan-- to do all which may achieve and cherish a just and lasting peace among ourselves, and with all nations. " "to bind up the nation's wounds" , and logical thinking and behavior?! If Congress fails to do its duty and impeach this sorry excuse for a human being, then the country will never be the same afterward. No one will ever look at the flag or the White House or our other symbols in the same way he once did. idiotic statements/nonesense?!!
