It's not so much what got in their way, as it was tying up the POTUS time defending baseless, unproven (Whitewater) charges.
But their job is to yell to the media all the time. If it wasnt one thing, it would be another.
Tell me - what legistation did the investigation get in the way of?

That's great and before it we had Henry B calling for an impeachment of Bush41 and of course the Democrats never tried to investigate the Reagan administration. Never.
Clinton had a direct attack on the WTC in 1993 to respond to. He demurred. Khobar Towers in 1995, he declined. The embassy bombings in Nigeria and Tanzania. He wilted.
He was busy. See: GOP circus.
Great comparison. One whackjob SOTEX congressman, vs. an entire GOP congresss hungry for blood when their POTUS candidate lost an election.
If I am not mistaken the Iran Contra investigation was still underway during Bush41's administration and the investigator was pretty much a partisan loose cannon as Starr is portrayed. It was more than one congressman.
You know, perhaps if Bush43 wasn't subjected to the level of vitriol directed at him from the deranged left, you know, the "extra chromosome" (thanks to Gore for that phrase) lib-left then perhaps he could have gotten more done.
Maybe if the Secret Service wasnt busy extinguishing idiot liberals, they could be doing something productive like finding bad guys.
I've been reading through this thread and I believe some history is in order on the Whitewater investigation.
First, President Clinton wasn't the sole target of the investigation, he was merely the highest profile suspect -- and, as President, required the appointment of a special prosecutor. Justice could have conducted the whole investigation alone but for the implication of his involvement.
The investigation, if I remember, resulted in 16 indictments and 13 convictions...some at the highest levels of the Clinton Administration. I think it is only because he was able to insulate himself that he wasn't convicted.
But, he was impeached and a weak Senate chickened out on convicting him and throwing his ass out of office.
It's because like a lot of us, she's tired of all the righteous PC bull , and thank god she also recognizes the fact that we aren't going to beat Osama by giving him a hug and tell him we want peace.what makes this woman so hard? so mean? so evil-looking? Look at her eyes! Look at the cement hard set of her face.
Anyone who France dislikes (which they already hate Condi) is a winner in my book, and I'd say that about any liberals that they hated too (just haven't seen any they did).
Clinton was never implicated in the White water wash. The independent investigation went well beyond its original stated mission. The Monica Lewingski affair was used by the right to keep Clinton off-balance the last 2.5 years of his Presidency. When Clinton bombed Sudan and Afghanistan for the bombing of the Cole the Right cryed wag-the-dog. It was the Republican controlled House and Senate that prevented Clinton from protecting this country, and they and this adminstration failed us again on 911.If Clinton was involved in WW - a money laundering scheme - he did not deserve to be President. Because of the nature of the allegations, they needed to be investigated.
These were personal problems, and if they did cause Clinton to not be able to adequately perform his job - as was suggested by extatic, then he should have been forced to resign to concern himself with those problems.
Still not as significant as a Cabinet member being found guilty of a felony. Does the name Casper Weinberger ring a bell?The investigation, if I remember, resulted in 16 indictments and 13 convictions...some at the highest levels of the Clinton Administration. I think it is only because he was able to insulate himself that he wasn't convicted.
Tired of the self-righteous bull ? , you haven't seen the beginning of the self-righteous bull , but then again look who I'm talking too...you would probably support stoning harlets again.It's because like a lot of us, she's tired of all the righteous PC bull , and thank god she also recognizes the fact that we aren't going to beat Osama by giving him a hug and tell him we want peace.

I'm sure the 100,000 American WW1 Veterans buried in France are turning in their graves at what the right has done to the American-French relationship.
Any WW1 vet I know would want to kick France's ass for the way they have acted recently.
Of course it doesn't. Nothing matters to you wing-nuts.Doesn't matter.
How have they acted recently? Tell me, what makes France such a purge?Any WW1 vet I know would want to kick France's ass for the way they have acted recently.
You read what I wrote mother er. Now shut the up already.
LOL, this coming from a man who thinks our military is targeting civilians, that we should negotiate with the insurgents, etc. etc.Tired of the self-righteous bull ? , you haven't seen the beginning of the self-righteous bull , but then again look who I'm talking too...you would probably support stoning harlets again.
The 100,000 WWI vets would wonder WTF we even bothered liberating France, and didn't just leave it to go to .I'm sure the 100,000 American WW1 Veterans buried in France are turning in their graves at what the right has done to the American-French relationship.
France hasn't done to support the UN or NATO in 50 years, in short it's not holding up its mutual protection clause for either one of those alliances.How have they acted recently? Tell me, what makes France such a purge?
It turned its back on its allies when they needed help or wanted permission to do things, if they didn't somehow pertain to helping France in some way.
It's appeased the Muslim invasion in Europe, and will by all accounts be the first European power to fall to the Muslims here in the next 12 years or so.
It's never fought when it mattered, just chicken ted out and surrendered - some ally, more like a liability.
And to top it all off most recently it took at least 2 billion in bribes from Saddam to block any vote on the UN Security Council pertaining to Saddam's breaking of UN treaties, regulations, and agreements.
Yeah, what's not to like about France?
Marcus supporting the suppression of free speech? How quiant.You read what I wrote mother er. Now shut the up already.
Don't go away mad . Just go away.
Now Marcus, play nice. This is a political discussion forum and if political opinion get under your skin your more than welcome to go to the Spurs forum and talk whimsickle nonsense while the right purges our country of its remaining wealth and dignity.Don't go away mad . Just go away.
Think I'm playing mother er? One email and you're gone.
