He's already had a half-dozen Watergates according to FOXNEWS, so there might as well be a Waterloo thrown in there too.

How ridiculous. He not only didn't know the flight numbers, he didn't know what day, what time, what city/airport, or even IF it was a credible threat. As I said, there was nothing specific to go on.

Impeachment is for "high crimes and misdemeanors", not "coverups".

Nixon's coverup of the Watergate break-in involved abuse of authority, payment of hush money, firing the special prosecutor, and obstruction of justice, not just saying "I am not a crook".

What we knew in the fog of battle differs from the aftermath today.
So the CIA is feeding one version to its head and another to whom exactly? I mean you folks must think the rest of us are as dumb as the Obama base.

Was Bush forced to resign over 9/11? He lied.

No, he will not be forced to resign. There is no smoking gun present in General Petraeus' testimony that would lead anyone with common sense to believe that there was anything criminal in the President's actions..

If we've learned anything about the left it is that they never turn on their own no matter what.They may even garner more respect for less than honorable behaviour.
