I think ya'll are counting your chickens before they hatch. You are taking things out of context - using supposition, rumor, and assorted and sundry things to try to prove your point that Bush has betrayed us already.

I'm sorry, but I just do not believe that. Bush is just too much of a law and order kind of guy - and I am confident (by the expression on his face when he sees Clinton), that he has no special desire to protect such varmin.

However, you must remember, Bush, as President, wants to protect the presidency itself. Since none of us have ever been in his position, we have no idea what is in the documents we think are so important and need to be released. Maybe they would be very compromising to the workings of the presidency; not to any particular person.

I have written to the President regarding these documents. My feeling is this: if the documents hide criminal activity by one person (albiet a president), then they need to be revealed. The nation needs to experience some justice regarding the Clintons. However, if the documents don't hide criminal activity perse' but are strong enough to lead to a criminal conviction, then it might not be right to release them right now.

Until the record is set straight as to what the documents actually contain, then I can't see what everybody is so upset about??

If he is protecting scumbag clinton, then he may as well BE clinton.

The statement by Fliescher is very telling, reminding me of the stonewalling of x42. He didn't say they are protecting the presidency as much as that it was a "fishing expedition" by Burton.

With the mountain of criminality by the clintons this statement may speak volumes about the commitment to justice we are to expect from the current admin. I hope I'm wrong.

I have gone out of my way on this site and elswhere to stand up for Pres. Bush. But now I'm wondering whether the election of Bush was just a train stopping at a staion briefly, instead of switching tracks.

The Bush administration isn't using the Janet Reno 'continuing investigation' excuse. They claim it's a matter of principle. But their 'principled' stand looks very weak when they start hurling Clintonian insults at Congress.
