Clinton committed perjury, whether it was perjury in a civil case, or had it been perjury someplace else - its perjury.
are we now saying the Bush can violate the foreign wiretap laws (as you claim), but its "different" then violating other wiretap laws?
the reason the left is so "gung ho" about this issue is because they want to use it for impeachment, they know full well how these foreign intelligence matters have been handled in the past, what the NSA routinely does with all foreign traffic, etc. its not about the facts, the left simply wants to see some case get to the 9th circuit and obtain a politically motivated favorable ruling they can wave in the air as "Bush broke the law" to get the impeachment ball rolling. You will soon see (next week) a flood of cases entering the system challenging convictions/pleas that were based on evidence obtained via these wiretaps.
