First, let me correct an incorrect statement that has been fervently repeated by Democrats for years. Bill Clinton was NOT impeached for “…lieing about extra-marital affairs.” This repetition of this lie is done on the operating principles of the Democrats that, “If you tell a lie often enough and loud enough, people will come to believe that it is the truth.”
The reasons for Clinton’s impeachment are laid out the articles of impeachment:

Article 1: Perjury before Independent Counsel Ken Starr's grand jury.
Article 2: Perjury in the Paula Jones civil case.
Article 3: Obstruction of Justice related to the Jones case.
Article 4: Abuse of Power by making perjurious statements to Congress in his answers to the 81 questions posed by the Judiciary Committee.

It was these same crimes that caused the courts, including The United States Supreme Court to have his law license suspended for five years – are these too ‘Kangaroo Courts’?

On one of your other points, Bucco has recently posted a link to a WSJ editorial that discusses this at length. Of particular interest is that Nancy Pelosi was the ranking democrat on the House Intelligence Committee and was thoroughly briefed on all topics, including waterboarding. Should she be investigated and indicted, or is it to be only members of the Bush Administration? According to her Republican counterpart, Porter Goss, her major concern was that the CIA was not doing enough.

Oh, I forgot that she has said, in the immortal words of Hillary Clinton, "I can't recall."

Steve, you were dead on when you pointed out that Bill Clinton had vastly reduced our intelligence capability and President Bush was building it back and as a result, Obama inherited a much stronger intelligence capability than President Bush did. However, the recent ideas of 'after-the-fact' criminal prosecution by the Obama administration will cause continuing CYA activities in the intelligence committee to the detriment of actual intelligence gathering.
