Bush Tapes? Front Page; Clinton Tapes? What Clinton Tapes?

[Kennedy 0]

So why is it that every news source known to man had something to say about the Weid tapes of Bush (before he took office), but when alerted to the existance of Bill Clinton "sweet nothing" tapes to Lewinsky, yes while he was in the Oval Office, nobody has anything to say?

You'd think with Bill incapable of giving up the public spotlight and Mrs. Clintonista (yeah, I don't like here deal with it) alluding to a presidential run every six seconds, wouldn't something about them be news as big as Bush talking about a spliff?

For one thing, Bush is the current president, as much as that pains me to write.

Mostly though, I have a hard time hearing/reading anyone state that Bush is more persecuted in the media; remember that little impeachment thing? The same could be done to Bush with the entrance of the Iraq war and the alleged WOMD, but with no Ken Star looming in the shadows I don't see that happening.

Just like we can all be cited for a traffic violation at any given time, I think most/all presidents could be impeached or at least highly scrutinized for corrputioon and/or mishandling of public affairs.

Reagan/ Bush 1 with Iran Contra, Ford with his pardoning of Nixon, Nixon with Watergate (not being prosecuted, just being allowed to bow out), LBJ for his war atrocities of Viet Nam, possibly even a lame duck pres like Carter for mishandlingthe Iranian hostage crisis. I think we can go to any presidency and find a reason to severly investigate or even impeach most presidents. The decision to go forward with these investigations/impeachments is, let's say, political....

Bush persecuted? Nah
