Clinton saw only what was given to her. The admin. ignored any evidence that didn't conform to what they wanted it to show (curveball). The admin. even planted a story w/the NY Times about the alum. tubes then had Powell/Cheney/Rice/Rumsfield go on the Sunday morning talk shows and they used that Times story to make the arguement that Iraq was using them for nuclear weapons.

Is planting a story then using that story to justify something an intellegence failure or a deliberate act and does that then rise to a level for impeachment?
I believe it's around 6-8 Trillion after debt service.

I've never said Bush lied and I doubt you could prove it if you tried. But when it comes to deception on a gross scale it's almost hard to comprehend.
