Clinton guilty of wire tapping too?

[BILL53]

The Repubs have determined that if Bush is guilty of wire tapping that Clinton also is guilty of it ,so one of them suggested to have Clinton included if Bush has to go to a hearing.

NOW ,suppose they find Clinton guilty with the Republican hearing that they would certainly have,and want to send Clinton to jail,,would they realize that if Clinton has to be punished that Bush would also require the SAME punishment,or would it be determined that it only means that Dems would be guilty of it and Repubs are exempt and say that Clinton had done something entirely different than Bush in the wire tapping, maybe???

1. The repubs have determined wrongly. n/t

2. Republicans are still trying to make that lie stick?

Man, they're more obsessed with Clinton than they are with Reagan. No wonder they can't do anything right--they're living in the past, and they don't even understand the past they are living in. Congenitally stupid people.

5. They remind me of a bunch of five year olds

You know how it goes ...
A five year old gets caught doing something and when they have no legitimate excuse, they point the finger at someone else: "He did it, too!" or "She did it first!" :eyes:

If they have evidence against Clinton then let's see it!

The reality is that they spent several years and million of dollars to get Clinton on something - on ANYTHING! They investigated every aspect of his private life and his political life. If Clinton spied illegally, they would have found out about it - and used it against him - long before now. It's a crime. You know it, I know it, they know it. It would have been much easier to impeach him because of illegal spying than it was to impeach him because of a BJ.

The "Everybody else did it, so why shouldn't I" excuse doesn't work for grown-ups and it certainly doesn't work for the so-called leader of the free world. It's pathetic and if BushCo really believed their own spin about it not being illegal, they wouldn't have to resort to this childish excuse. If this is the best they can come up with, then they must really be on the ropes and the Dems should go after them .... HARD!

Welcome to DU! :hi:

6. I don't have the facts on Clinton's wiretaps and have no idea in hell if

he even ordered / approved any.

I do know that every time the Bush administration is criticized, it tries to pass the blame onto the previous administation. Which more or less makes the Bush administration a bunch of pussies in my book.

7. "without a warrant" should be in that phrase

THAT'S the issue. NOT whether he did it or not.

From now on, you should use "wiretapping without a warrant" or "warrantless wiretapping"
