danarhea said:I posted about the Bush administration authorizing the leaking of sensitive information more than a month ago. The article I posted was linked to a blog, since the mediawhores were staying silent as usual on this issue. However, pressure from the blogosphere itself has forced this issue out into the open, and once again, the mainstream media was finally forced to run with the ball. Thank God for the blogs, because without them, we would be getting more pablum puke from the mediawhores instead of discussing this issue today.
My original thread is here.
The blog I referenced is here.
Once again, it is time for me to gloat and say..........
I told you so.
Funny thing you would say that. Getting a blow job isn't a crime neither. But seems enough for impeachement.KCConservative said:If it were only unlawful, then you might have something.

disneydude said:I love the continued desperate efforts of the Bush Apologists to cast this as a legal v. illegal debate. Again, you miss the point. This issue is whether Bush knowingly and purposefully mislead the American people (as he has done so many times before - but thats for another thread).
Staying on topic here - Bush stood in front of the American public several times and denounced these leaks and promised to fire anyone involved/take appropriate action all the while he knew full well that he was involved in the leaks.
You Bush apologists can play with words and say he used the term "Classified" and "Sensitive" so because he had "De-Classified" it so that he could leak it, he didn't lie.
OK, well lets stay within the spirit of what he said to the American people. Are you so desperate that you are willing to argue that there was nothing that he did that was intended to mislead the people of this country?
If you say yes....can you do so with a straight face?
At some point, even the most die-hard Bushlover has to be honest with themselves.

Looks like Bush learned his lesson well from Bill Clinton, and can now tell us what the meaning of the word "is" is. :roflTrajan Octavian Titus said:You are making up your own facts here, Bush was decrying the leaking of classified information, now if the information has been declassified by the President himself then it is no longer classified is it??? This was the Presidential National Intelligence Estimate summary, it is his information to declassify if he wants, therfor by the very definition this isn't a god damn leak. A leak would mean that the information which was leaked was classified this information was not classified it was declassified. But hay keep making up your own facts.

That post is absolutely false.jfuh said:Funny thing you would say that. Getting a blow job isn't a crime neither. But seems enough for impeachement.

Would you kindly show the evidence that Clinton was impeached for having received oral sex? I know you won't, but I'm still asking.jfuh said:Funny thing you would say that. Getting a blow job isn't a crime neither. But seems enough for impeachement.
Oh? HOw is it false? Isn't that how the whole thing started to begin with? It's what lead to him having to define what the word is means.mpg said:That post is absolutely false.
Show me where I said Clinton. Come on KC you're good at it, so show me where I said clinton.KCConservative said:Would you kindly show the evidence that Clinton was impeached for having received oral sex? I know you won't, but I'm still asking.
How soon we all forget - *sigh*.jfuh said:Oh? HOw is it false? Isn't that how the whole thing started to begin with? It's what lead to him having to define what the word is means.
Sounds perfectly legitimate, unless we forget of course what the purpose of the "leak" as you put it was for. This was only an attempt by this administration to quash the opposition by discrediting them. Is this how a democracy and free society functions? It's pathetic. WHat's even more pathetic is that there are still quacks that feel this president has done nothing wrong and that it's only partisan bickering over what Bush inc has done.vauge said:How soon we all forget - *sigh*.
It was a sexual harassment case with Paula Jones and another lady in Arkansas. It had everything to do with what he did or didn't do *previously* while Governor. They asked Clinton if he had sex with Monica [his intern] to determine if he had a history of adultery [with interns] (which could confirm if he had a problem with harassment) - he said no - under oath.
Star proved he was lieing. That is what got him impeached.
As for the topic:
It is entrirely semantics - it's hard to "leak" publically available documents.

I don't know if the fact that you feel the need to respond to every single person is noble or pathetic. I tend to think the latter.
Just a little advice. George Bush is a big boy. He doesn't need you to apologize to every single person on this board. Especially when you are spewing out more ridiculous information that even his advisors are.
Nice try though. If you keep trying hard enough, maybe you can convince yourself.
Oh Good Lord! Is there anyone else who you guys claim to have been impeached for oral sex? Give is a break.jfuh said:Show me where I said Clinton. Come on KC you're good at it, so show me where I said clinton.
Do I need to google "articles of impeachment" and post a link? You know perfectly well that he wasn't impeached for a bj, and that wasn't even what started it. It started before that. The first part of your post might be false too. A bj can be illegal. Adultery is a misdemeanor in many states and a felony in some states. I'm not sure about The District of Columbia.jfuh said:Oh?
