If it is not politically expedient for Bush to pursue corruption, then it is safe to assume that it will not be expedient for the next President to pursue it, or the next President after that -- and the beat goes on! When does the corruption stop? We can hope that the electorate is smart enough to figure this stuff out and vote for the right people, but there's no guarantee of that. They almost voted a continuation of Clintonism and we may get one worse in the future. They vote in Mexico, Iraq, and most countries around the world. Does voting stop corruption? If our most powerful will not fight it, then we are doomed to a corrupt society.

Well said. What is that saying: "Power corrupts, absolute power corrupts abso..."?

clinton's relentless corruption caused a lot of changes
there is no one I see the same now as I saw before him
perhaps the best thing our Republican Congress did was not to allow censure
everyone had to stand up and be counted
there was no cover
and it swept George Bush into office
slick's corruption continues -- in the dark now
and will continue to jeopardize honest government
George is wholesome --
but the great lesson of Henry Hyde's Impeachment is that truth is a rock which cannot be budged
it's because Henry hitched his wagon to truth he succeeded in Impeachment
I don't see how we can have stability if compromises are chosen
