House passes resolution criticizing Wilson

Sorry....Wrong on both counts. Show me a link to Clinton being convicted of perjury & show me a law that says that receiving oral sex...... between consenting adults.....violates any law.
Additionally your comments about Obama lying are pure partisan BS.

Clinton may have been accused of perjury, but an accusation is meaningless unless it's followed by conviction in court. ..You know....Like Scooter Libby was convicted of perjury in a court of law.;)
Stop with the strawman. He lied to a federal judge, that's contempt of court. He lost his law license. Any more questions?
 
Just one:
Was he convicted of perjury? (....like Scooter Libby was)

He committed perjury but was not convicted. We rarely hold politicians accountable for their actions.

No, he was not charged and convicted by a jury. He was, however, found by a court to be lying under oath, so yes, he did commit the offense.

Don't fall for Devil's word games, Clinton lied his ass off and everyone knows it. And not just about a blowjob, but his entire presidency. He's a liar, period.

Believe me, I don't "fall" for anything Devil does. Which will include his inevitable, unsupported retort that I have, many times, without knowing it.
 
When did he committ perjury?

Ask the judge who found him in contempt for lying under oath. (Strange; I think this was said already.)

(deep.....evil laugh...).....What can I say.....I am the :devil: after all!;)

No, he's not.

Now, it's true that Clinton DID once try to make the argument that he was "active duty military" in order to avoid something (don't remember exactly what), but that went nowhere. The President is a civilian, and civilian control of the military is exactly the point.

As for perjury, he was found in contempt of court for lying under oath.

Which proves my point.

Even if I were to totally concede that Clinton's adultery was not illegal, Clinton was still found guilty of braking a law whereas Wilson broke NO law.

So, to answer the question:
Of course it wasn't... but the democrats were desperate for any kind of a win, so they latched on to this colossal waste of time.

.
One question:
Did you find the mutli-million dollar impeachment proceedings against President Bill Clinton a "colossal waste of time"..... & money, or was that different because he was a Democrat?

Impeachment proceedings against President Bill Clinton were not a "colossal waste of time" because Clinton was found guilty of braking a law.

Wilson did not brake any law.

Since Wilson did not brake any law, his deceleration is covered under free speech and therefore Congress admonishing him is not only a "colossal waste of time" but an affront to the Constitution and an insult to greater American public.

Obama WAS lying, and lying to the public IS illegal, so impeach the bastard.

Perjury and lying under oath are not the same thing. Do you know what the three conditions of perjury are?

Didn't know Clinton was driving his automobile against the law. The lie came about because of a perjury trap by the prosecution. Kenneth Starr tried anything and everything including threatening witnesses in order to try to get something on clinton.

Also Obama wasn't lying in order for his statement to be a lie Illegal Immigrants would have had to have gotten health coverage under his health efforts since wednesday which hasn't happened yet.

So when Bush lied about not firing Rumsfeld he should have been impeached right?

When he claimed he gave up golf for the troops?

When he claimed he quit drinking and yet was caught drinking a pisco sour at the Apec summit

Who the **** is taking about Clinton driving a car? I mean seriously wtf are you smoking :confused:

The lie came about because of a perjury trap by the prosecution.

But the lie DID come about, and was illegal, which was my point.

Also Obama wasn't lying...

Yes he was, this has been proven since Wilson's outburst.

So when Bush lied...

This thread is not about Bush. Nothing Bush said or did justifies Obama lying to the public anyway.

You were talking about Clinton "braking" the law :rofl

Yeah he lied about a lie from another case which wasn't relevent to the case.

Yes he was, this has been proven since Wilson's outburst.

Umm no he wasn't his statement was that people said illegals would receive coverage under his reform measures. When in the last week did Illegals receive coverage under his reform? Until that day comes its not a lie.

This thread is not about Bush. Nothing Bush said or did justifies Obama lying to the public anyway.

It just shows your disingenuous standard of what you think constitutes an impeachable offense. Obama not lying about health care and you think its impeachable. Bush lying multiple times, a-okay. Clinton lying about a blowjob that had nothing to do with the case, good enough to waste millions on an investigation.
 
You were talking about Clinton "braking" the law :rofl

I don't get it....Firefox isn't flagging "braking" as a misspelled word, so idk wtf you're talking about :confused:

Umm no he wasn't...

Umm yes he was.

It just shows your disingenuous standard of what you think constitutes an impeachable offense.

No it shows your ignorance on my opinion of Bush. I didn't even vote for the guy so I'm not ever going to answer for anything he did.

No the word isn't misspelled you used the wrong word. To brake means to stop you know like the brakes in your car. Break is the word you're looking for.

Umm yes he was.

No he wasn't. Again when in the last week did Illegal Immigrants receive coverage under his health care efforts?

No it shows your ignorance on my opinion of Bush. I didn't even vote for the guy so I'm not ever going to answer for anything he did.

Well so far you've said two democratic presidents deserved impeachment but the republican? No comment. You said lying to the public is impeachable but you have no comment on Bush. It's disingenuous of you

There was never any requirement for me to comment on every president whenever I comment on a few.

Generally speaking, I'm likely to refrain from commenting on Bush because you people keep bringing up Bush every time Obama is criticized. I'm not a Republican and I'm tired of hearing about Bush when we want to discuss the sitting president.

It may seem disingenuous to you, but I know my motives and don't seek validation from others for those motives. I'm tired of Bush being brought up every-time there's a discussion of Obama. You don't have to believe that, but that's all it is regardless.

What's wrong you couldn't take a joke?

Yes he was.
You could claim this until the cows come home it still won't change the fact you're wrong. How exactly was his statement a lie?

You seem to only be commenting on democratic ones seems like selective outrage.

What do you mean "you people"?

It's not that it seems it's that it is disingenuous. You jumped from Clinton to Obama but skipped an entire presidency that lied to the public. Seems like you only apply certain standards to certain presidents.

I was directly answering a specific question.

The question I was answering did not include Bush, so it follows that my answer would not include Bush, either.

So going back to the question should President Bush been impeached for lying to the public?

"The question" did not concern Bush, and who cares about Bush now anyway. He's out of office.

Obama is now the one lying to the public. Obama is now the one braking the law. Not Bush, not Willson. Obama.
