Poll question: Who Deserves/d Impeachment More???
I'm too young to really remember Watergate. So I have no context. But given what happened in Florida with Jeb Bush, not to mention Iraq, Watergate looks like child's play. Am I missing something? Or are the Bush families' "crimes" far worse than what Nixon did?

1. All Nixon did wa orchestrate a break-in
use the power of his office to cover it up and block the investigation, and lie to the American people...

Shrubya on the other hand... oh why bother go into it, we all know what he's done...

Nixon pales in comparrison...

2. Nixon commited impeachment worthy crimes
Iran-Contra was worse than watergate.

3. Both do equally.

That should have been an option.

Once you cross over a certain line, which both have crossed, I don't see much point in comparing.

I was alive and paying very close attention back then.
Watergate and its related crimes were not small potatoes.
Nixon was in danger of creating the exact same kind of problems as Bush tries to do now.
And in considering Iraq think about Cambodian bombings & Allende's assasination for starters.

edited to add this comment--
Every man thinks his burden is the heaviest. Be careful about thinking that your generations problems somehow are significantly greater and more dangerous and more worthy than preceding generations.
That you leaders are somehow more evil.
I mean that advice in a quite friendly manner. I'm not trying to flip flak at you.

5. I voted for bush ............ (Had to force myself to type that)
Not just because he is the pain-in-the-ass we have to contend with right now, but I believe he is consciously far more deceitful than Milhouse ever was. And he surrounds himself with far more deceitful sleazebags than Nixon ever did.
