Presidential lies

When Clinton lied and Republicans screamed, Democrats acted like they couldn't understand what our problem was. Now, Democrats are screaming that Mr. Bush lied and we're trying to ignore it and sweep it under the rug just like they did. The Grand Old Party ought to be better than that. I've always thought of us as the upright party. We don't dance very well, but we stand up and look problems like Social Security in the eye. If Mr. Bush did something wrong, then one of the best things that he could do for our country would be to set a good example and show that he is not above justice. I don't believe that justice ought to call for him stepping down.

With Mr. Clinton, our country showed that we expect politicians to lie to us. Democrats, you wouldn't let us get rid of Clinton for lying. Your side won. There is a new law in Washington. Our Chief Executive lying to us is now OK. Those are the rules. You made them. And now you're whining because you don't like them. Oh, well. Sorry. We didn't like them either.

I don't think that Bush lied; I think that he was misinformed (like many world leaders) and that was the only information that he could act on. I'm glad that he did have the guts to confront what many thought were a threat. The country can debate on his true intentions, but we know for sure that he was misinformed by faulty intelligence. Now it is time to fix that broken system instead trying to get rid of people that were simply misinformed.
