    The only physical search in modern history without a warrant of any kind was authorized by the Clinton Justice department and carried out by a reluctant FBI.

    I guess the fourth amendment was temporarily suspended during the Clinton years. Otherwise this would have to be a clear violation of the Constitution.

    Actually, he is eligible to have his license reinstated, if he so chooses. The bar of his licenses was for a period of 5 years. That ended in January of this year I believe.


    Also, he did not lose his license for violating the Constitution, he lost it for lying under oath.

    Elian Gonzalez?

    Really good usage of search and seizure - seizing a little boy at gunpoint ... automatic weapons stuck in his face . . .

    Committing "high crimes and misdemeanors" while holding the office of President is a direct violation of the Constitution. Perjury qualifies.

    Um........yeah.........okay...................WHAT?

    First of all, you didn't answer my question. Secondly, my apology was due to the fact that I cannot help you. A post like this simply reinforces my point.

    And to think you posted this for everyone to see. Wow: I'm embarrassed for you.

    Besides: this ruling will be overturned - so you have nothing to fear.

    Perjury may qualify. While undeniably a disgraceful misdemeanor, lying under oath in a civil suit about a private sex act between consenting adults is hardly a "high crime". This was the best that years of investigation, with weekly leaks from the special prosecutor's office, and a trillion dollars could buy.

    That is not even in the same league as torture, kidnapping, invading & occupying a sovereign nation on bogus charges or violating the 4th Amendment rights of your own citizens.

    When the top law enforcement officer of our country lies under oath it is a high crime. And if President Bush was caught lying under oath about anything the head hunters would be out in force.

    True

    And he does not possess the ability to look into the camera and lie. He gets way too excited and confused when ever he gets shook up good . . .

    As long as the Republicans control Congress, Bush won't have to testify under oath.

    Republican control of Congress has no bearing on whether civil suits, like the one during which Clinton committed perjury, are filed against Bush.
