As for breaking the law I have seen plenty of legal analyst come out and say that either A) it was within his right to do or B) the law is murky and there is no way to prove he did/did not break the law. I support President Bush doing that and would have supported a Democrat for doing the same thing.
Clinton also was caught in a bold-faced lie directly to the American people and after it was proven were impeachment procedings begun. As much as some people really, really want to prove President Bush has broken the law it has yet to happen.
Agreed with all points. Bush's case is definitely not as clear cut as Clinton's.
