My issue with Clinton...and by the way...my Democratic dad's isue...was that as the chief law enforcement officer of our country he should face whatever charges went with lying under oath.
Obviously, to be carrying on with an intern as the POTUS was galactically stupid and does make you question his judgement. However, it was the undermining of our legal system that, in my mind, was impeachable.

I agree with this. But you just said that those bibical characters were heroes, though flawed human beings.David: Adulterer and Murderer Peter: Lied three times, after pledging his undying devotion the previous day. Moses: Murderer. So Clinton's flaw was lying under oath - that certainly doesn't rise to the level of being a murderer. You said, "If you think that because Newt had a moral failing that he is unfit to lead...you better take another look at the Bible." How does that not apply to Clinton as well?
I personally don't think Clinton or Gingrich have any business running for office after what they have shown themselves capable of.
