Sunday Shows

It's apparent that the popularity of President Bush at 39 percent approval will be the topic of the Sunday News Shows.
And the will use the incident of "Scooter" Libby and the indictments as the biggest facton in this slide. After all, the president talked about changing the morals of the White House and this happened.
So you're comparing someones recollection of events and being charged with purjury because he REMEMBERED WRONG, and was indicted for what? A bad memory. Now let's compare that to Bill Clinton's "indescretions" and purjury.
Gossiping with reporters and not remembering it the way other remember events isn't a crime, it's a difference of opinion.
What Clinton did WAS a real national security risk. What do you think Clinton would have done to help the Israelis of the Palestinians or even the Russians if they knew about his little sexcapade of pocket rocket syndrome and threatened to make it public unless they went along with their plans for money or arms or anything else.
Let's see, a president controlled by foreign leaders because he couldn't keep his zipper up and his temptations in check and lying about what the word "sex" means?
Not that Clinton wouldn't be fun to spend a weekend with, but this incident was enough to tank his presidency because he had no morals and could be manipulated to go against the best interests of our country.
Libby's recollections aren't an indictable offense. If everyone was indicted because of not remembering things the way someone else remembered things, the courts would be clogged with perjury cases.
It just goes to show you, grand juries are the most dangerous meetings in our democracy.
Thanks for reading.
