6. It's just a potpourri of anti-Clinton talking points
The charges of theft and vandalism are nothing more than baseless charges made by the Bushies soon after they moved in; it is never been supported by fact. One may assume that, like their case for going to war against Iraq, they are false and that those who disseminate them know that they are false.

The charges about some of Clinton's pardons as he left office raise valid points. Hopefully, those making these charges will be willing to give scrutiny to any pardons Mr. Bush gives as he goes out the door.

The points about Mr. Clinton's personal conduct and sexual mores are red herrings. He was not the only occupant of the White House to have personal failings of this nature; he is simply the only one to have Ken Starr snooping about exposing them. As for impeachment, it was only right that the Senate virtually laughed the impeachment resolution out of town by refusing to give a majority for conviction, let alone the two-thirds required for removal. The Republicans shot themselves in the foot over impeachment. Al thought the official charge was perjury, one is only being charitable to the Republicans in saying that Clinton was impeached over a blow job; he was impeached for being a Democrat. It was bald faced partisan politics carried to a level where it did not belong. The real question there is why did the GOP push impeachment when their case lacked any merit.
