Clinton was technically impeached, but he was was acquitted in the Senate (much like Johnson back in the 1800's). Lying is lying, and people, especially politicians, have been doing it for years. I didn't think that Clinton should have been impeached, nor do I think that Bush should be. Now there's a caveat to this. I just heard on the radio that the Zogby poll to which Gruss was referring asked the impeachment question as such: "If it was found that Bush knowingly mislead the public concerning the reasons for going to war, should he be impeached?" Now that is a completely different question! I would hope that everyone would answer that question with a big, resounding YES! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Purchase Flash MX Pro from House of Fusion, a Macromedia Authorized Affiliate and support the CF community. http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=57 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:162647 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
