Too bad Clinton didn't do what BUSH does routinely and simply REFUSE to be put under oath (9/11 commission? Have a cozy little chat, did they). Hard to slam anyone for lying under oath when they feel they are so above the law of the land that they aren't subject to taking the oath in the first place - and why should they have to when they've made it perfectly clear that anyone who even THINKS about opposing them is going to suffer - big time.
And haha - we're supposed to believe the SCOTUS is a moral authority on anything? Haha! They dumped their reputations in the toilet on the day they dirtied the Constitution by taking it upon themselves choose the next president rather than allowing the people of the United States to follow due process of law in electing their own president. If you're looking for noble champions of the people whose opinions you can cite to make your case, they aren't it. We all saw what they did, and history will record their shameful and traitorous ruling and will not be kind to them.
By the way, how's that overturning of Roe v. Wade going?:)

Oooh, I hear this so often
and it just frustrates the you know what out of me!!! I am proud to consider myself Republican and I am far from selfish!!! I give to charity what I can, I volunteer at my son's school, as a family we volunteer at the homeless food pantry here in my town, and my children just had a yard sale two weeks ago to raise money for MDA. I am a good person and there are good people in my family (who are also Rebuplicans). You can't just lump all Republicans or all Democrats into one nasty group. If that were true, my best friend, who is a liberal Democrat, wouldn't be my best friend because we wouldn't be able to stand each other, seeing as I'm so selfish and all. I understand getting frustrated with the opposing political parties, but let's try to keep statements to facts and not just say something for the sake of saying something. There are a lot of people out there, Republicans and Democrats, that are still open-minded and really want to hear the issues, not the crap that the candidates are throwing at each other every day. Let this be the place for those who are open-minded.
oooh, I didn't say that well at all. sm.
Let me apologize please. I didn't mean that at all the way it sounded. You have done very well for yourself raising your children and making it on your own. I didn't word that right at all and didn't realize how awful that sounded when I wrote it- obviously. My point was - why a higher percentage? Why not equal percentage? obviously on an equal percentage basis, he/she/they who earn more pay more. Why should higher income earners pay an even greater percentage?
oooh that's an insightful post --
where'd you get your psy degree -- the cracker jack box?
oooh - I like poopie-breath, can I use it? LOL
You instantly brought me back to my childhood. Gave me a laugh.
Oooh, O lovers don't wanna hear that....that's
!!
Oath
He was nervous folks, wouldn't you be in front of millions? For Pete's sake, he has only been president since noon. Let the man take office and see what he can do. Lots of talk shows, etc., have been griping about him since November. Pretty lousy since he didn't take office until today. No, not one person can solve the world's problems, but let us pray that President Obama at least tries, not like the last 8 years.
The president did an oath do over
with Roberts. I would think he was actually very nervous, which is understandable. Personally, I would have said every name but my own trying to get past I...(state your name). There is a Washington City Paper article about a law professor that states that Condoleeza Rice was actually president for a whole minute before Joe Biden was sworn in because they were running late, then Biden was president for a whole three minutes before Obama was sworn in. So the author states that Condoleeza Rice was actually the first female AND first black president. I don't know how much validity is given to this paper, but it is an interesting article so far. Obama was not the first president to flub the oath and apparently the reason for the do-over is because the constitution states the oath must be said word for word as it is written. The only thing that changes is your name.

Lying under oath is just that.
Lying under oath. There are no exceptions to this rule regardless of whether Bill's action on the side was our business or not. If he was so worried about protecting his daughter, he should have kept his pecker in his pants and away from Monica's mouth. He lied under oath...period.
Gonzales not required to take oath??
That just beats all. Why even have him testify if he is not required to tell the truth UNDER OATH? Not too hard to figure out where this is all coming from - reminds one of the way Bush visited with the 9/11 commission but refused to be put under oath.
The question is, and always has been - why is this administration so terrified of telling the truth?
The word is that Rove is threatening to withdraw all Republican funding and support from any Republican senator or representative who fails to fall in line with the administration's ambition of unbridled above-the-law autonomy. If they so much as make a peep about protecting the Constitution rather than dear leader, they're dead in the water. It's kind of pathetic watching them all sweat and stutter and grovel, heh - might even be entertaining if it wasn't such an important issue.
Perjury - lying under oath - How is it that
Bush swearing on the Bible and breaking his oath to the American people is "no big deal." Generalities, don't have all night to type here. Just answering that Clinton lied about sex, but Bush took us into an absolutely unfounded war for no good reason, with no good intelligence, Cheney knew in 1994 what would follow an invasion into Iraq, an absolute disaster of foreign policy, so I cannot give Bush any respect. And I do agree that the Dems who voted to give Bush free reign should not be voted back into office, and for your information, I, for one, will not vote for Hilary for the aforementioned reason. Our country has changed immensely in the last six years with all of this policital strife, the hate that Bush has evoked here and around the world, and the shame he has commanded. My prayer is that he does absolutely nothing for the next year and couple of months. Wish the windshield cowboy would take a long drive back to Crawford.
I see he couldn't even repeat the oath...
of office without it being repeated for him twice. Get the teleprompters ready!
What oath did he break? He swore to uphold the law of...
the United States. He has not broken that. I am not his biggest fan; there are a lot of things he has done that I do not agree with. There are many things he has done that I do agree with. I had a problem with a lot of the things Clinton did, but I did not hate the man. I absolutely do not understand the personal hatred some of you people feel for him. It just seems unreasonable and totally out of whack. Especially since he is gone no matter who is elected. Kinda wasted effort to expand all that energy hating someone.
What if Hillary is the Dem candidate and it is her or a Republican? You will vote for her then, right...? lol
Doctor's take the Hippocrates oath and have to abide...sm
by it or have their license pulled. It may not be illegal but is unethical. It is hard for me to believe a doctor would risk his license by talking about this on tape on the record. Do you have a verifiable source?
Again, doctors take the Hippocratic oath, do no harm etc. nm
.
If a doctor truly believed his hippocratic oath he would not be...
killing babies for ANY reason other than to save the life of the mother.
also, Obama did not flub the oath - the justice did - nm
x
You always forget the phrase *under oath*, which is what lost him his law license sm
and the respect of the Supreme Court Justices who for the first time in history, did not attend the State of the Union address of a sitting president. But I guess all that is okay, too.
So you have no problem that he put his hand on a Bible and lied under oath? nm
