Tom, 
   Again, no one is defending W. Certainly not me. I may be from Texas but I didn't vote for the daddy or the son. 
  Nor  will I ever. 
   Yeah, the radiosubversion.com is a cool site. 
   As a webmaster with a pretty cool site your ownself you might enjoy hearing what Mr. Lee has to say tomorrow morning.
   Best,
    TL

The truth is, Mr. Lohrmann, you don't get it.
 
To put it simply:
 
After Clinton's lies to the people were all said and done, everybody walked away and it became a minor embarrassment.  Although many Republicans pushed for impeachment proceedings against Clinton.
 
After Bush's lies to the people are all said and done, over 200+ soldiers are buried, and we are still looking for weapons of mass destruction in Iraq.
 
We could quote an old statement by (of all people) Bruce Springsteen when he said, "Blind faith in your leaders can get you killed."  But, I guess that one death is horrible.  200 deaths is a statistic.
 
But, I will thank you for the link to www.radiosubversion.com.  It tends to clean up the air a little.

Amy, 
    It wasn't about his sex life. It was about sexual harassment.
    What is it about 1. a state's chief executive exposing himself to a low-level underling over which he could indirectly have firing authority; 2. having sex with women under him in the White House; 3. groping women who work for him. etc. that you don't call sexual harassment.
    And THEN for feminists and the feminist minded not to speak out against him just because he happened to have a D by his name? It's mind-boggling.
    If he hadn't been a political ally of the major feminist groups they would have been first in line on the impeachment bandwagon for his perjury and you know it.
    At least the ARK Bar had the guts to disbar him for his crime.
    
  And again, no one that I saw has defended W for his actions at all. 
   Best, TL

Tim, though I'm sure this is a tired thread by now, I have to jump in. 
Feminist-minded Democrats condemned Clinton, but not because of his sexual 
behavior or his womanizing. Clinted deserved criticism from women because 
he signed a welfare reform bill that punished women and children, forced 
them to work for low wages (often less than minimum wage as in New York's 
workfare programs), all without adequate funding for childcare, education 
and healthcare. Feminists were also outraged because he signed DOMA. 
Clinton and Gore did enough to piss off the women who voted for them, but we 
care about more important issues than a president's sex life or whether he 
calls someone Babe.

As for lying--it is despicable that he lied, but the national discussion of 
his sex life was such an affront--another kind of cheating, and you know it. 
Po! liticians throughout this nation's history have been womanizers, have 
cheated with their interns. They drink, smoke and have a lot of sex. The 
right-wing attack on Bill Clinton was a paparazzo-like attempt to make 
national politics more like the Jerry Springer show. And they spent 
millions of tax-payer dollars to create the spectacle.

If a leader should impeached for lying, we better start the process for Bush 
right now--he's told serious lies that have killed thousands of people. He 
lied about WMDs in Iraq, about Hussain trying to buy uranium from Africa, 
about our economy improving and about jobs being created during his 
administration, about the No Child Left Behind Act working.

The Guerilla Girls have a great new poster showing that Bush is one of the 
worst threats to our national security 
http://www.guerrillagirls.com/posters/womensterroralert.shtml . I hope 
this time next year we are inaugurating another flawed Democrat ! to replace 
this scary Republican. I want to send Bush and Cheney life-sized pink slips 
on behalf of the thousands of workers who have lost jobs since they've been 
in office. I'd also like to draft them and stick them in Baghdad. I can 
dream, can't I?

Ted,
I don't get it. I think it's ridiculuous for supposedly feminist minded 
Democrats to defend Clinton's actions--so because of that I'm supposed to 
defend Bush?
Why?
Are your political views so simplistic that a person who doesn't 
approve of a Democrat party president's actions must automatically be 
enamored of any GOP'er president?
Or were you just upset that no one responded to your post?
By the way, your argument about! "cause a scholar said so" is 
ridiculous.
Just like courtroom "experts," you can find numerous scholars on almost 
any side of any issue.
Best, TL

Carl, Tim, et. al.

I posted to V2020 that Bush telling the nation lies to scare us into a war 
was worse than Clinton's lies about his sex life, yet not a peep out of Tim 
or just about anyone else that I recall on V2020.

Tim, I'd gladly accept replacing some of the "Wilson/CC" subject headed 
posts with "Bush Lied" subject headed posts. But I think this focus on a 
religious group that seeks to expand and gain influence over the community 
is worth the attention it is getting.

Ted
