Clinton, the great hero of women, lied to cover up a severe case of harassment. Do you believe he didn't drop trou on Paula jones?
How can someone who is a hero to women frustrate a sexual harassment claim and not be seen as pond scum by women?
on the other hand, Bush believed that which Clinton, the Democratically controlled Senate, the UN and Blix all believed. we only know the fall out from bush having taken the only responsible course- we'll never know the fallout on hnon-action in Iraq.
We could extrapolate from the fall out of Clinton's non-action in Afghanistan, but that is really apples and oranges.
