I'm sorry; Perhaps it's because I'm a former Marine but I don't think anyone should be taking pot shots at the office of the President of the United States. The office needs to be respected at all costs, no matter whom or what group is in office.

This was a lie about nothing important. Granted, it was under oath. But he should never have had to answer such questions under oath.

Clinton was impeached in the House, but he was not convicted in the Senate. The reason he was not convicted? Politics.

If you put the Presidential office above the law, at all costs, you wouldn't like the result. The result is a King. We broke away from England to avoid Kings.
