I might suggest that you do some in-depth research on the matter. If you did, you would find that it was Janet Reno, the Atty General of the United States, an appointee of Pres. Clinton, a Democrat, who ordered the investigation(s) on the matter and who went to the Congress for the money for the investigation -
Check it out.
Yes and conservatives or republicans chose to waste our money pursuing it. Why do you think it was OK to waste tax payer dollars to put Bill Clintons "private sex life" on the stand?

You really need to check your facts - Yes, Republicans voted for the funds - but, so did DEMOCRATS. Your statement asserts it was only one party that supported the funds - which is blatantly untrue. I would also ask you why a Democrat, Janet Reno, would keep asking for money. She had the absolute power to shut down the investigation - any time she wanted to. Yet, she did not. Don't you find that interesting? Even a little bit?
And, it was not Clinton's "private sex life" that was the issue; it was lying under oath to a Grand Jury that was under the microscope. An issue that resulted in his license to practice law being suspended for a number of years.

BTW - your bias is quite clear.
So why was his sex life pursued to the point he had to comment on it to the grand jury? Why is this "waste" of tax payer dollars ok?

IMO, you need to go and read up on the issue surrounding President Clinton's impeachment. It does appear you are not informed on the issue. And, while you are at it, take a look at the Attorney Generals comments regarding the issue. The Atty General, a Democrat, felt it was important enough to pursue it.

I am plenty informed on the issue.. You're twisting the facts...Any way that is beside the point. Why is it OK to add debt to our grandchildren to investigate Clintons "sex life"?

It wasn't about that...it was about perjury and obstruction of justice. This site will explain it to you:

I know what the impeachment was "technically" about. My question is why do conservatives support wasting tax payer dollars investigating Clintons sex life?
Well so far I've gotten answered why they went after him after his testimony, but no answer on way they supported our tax money investigating his sex life? Especially ironic that it's coming from the same people that don't want Bush investigated.
Why is Rush Limbaugh, a disc jockey who never served in the military, never served his country in any capacity, never governed or lead government bureaucracy on any level, nor advanced a successful proven agenda criticizing Colin Powell who has served this country honorably for his entire life? I mean he's so dismissive of his comments like he's the be all - end all of the republican party...
1) RL is a conservative. Powell is not. He supported Obama. He's one of those Republicans that are Democrat-Lite.
2) Just because you are a great General, doesn't mean you're great at minature golf, babysitting or rocket science and should automatically have your opinions regarding those three areas held in awe. In other words, Limbaugh wouldn't have much of credence if he criticized his military expertise or military leadership skills but in any other area, Powell is just like the rest of us...and open to criticism. Powell is waxing about how we Republicans all want to pay more taxes and want more government in our lives. If that "we" is what he thinks is Republican, along with supporting the most left wing person in Presidential history, then I'm with Limbaugh and through with the Republican Party.
If it was not for the backbone of conservatives we would all be speaking German. As for Powell, it was a lack of backbone that made him a turncoat.
I'll take Rush over Powell anyday. Liberals are very jealous of Rush's success while all the liberal radio stations fail.
