Huh? What? Sorry, I don't get it. :-( Johnleemk | Talk 20:12, 21 December 2005 (UTC)
The facts were not necessarily incorrect, but the wording appeared to be substantially less neutral than the previous version of the article. Johnleemk | Talk 20:21, 21 December 2005 (UTC)
The removal of a fact ("The House passed two of the four counts. The Senate acquitted Clinton on both counts in a trial concluding on February 12, 1999.") can easily be construed as non-neutral, or at least...something. Johnleemk | Talk 20:30, 21 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] 45-55, eh?
Anon., you are spreading misinformation. The votes in the Clinton trial were 50-50 on the perjury count and 55-45 to acquit on the obstruction count. See here for the details. --Jfruh 04:58, 22 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] King George can now refer to GW Bush whether you like it or not...
"I think using such informal nicknames that could be seen as politically motivated should not be allowed."
This informal nickname already refers to President Bush in public discourse; hence, its presence on a disambiguation page.
"On top of that, I have never heard either President Bush nor Geo. Steinbrenner refered to by that name. A lot of other names, both good and bad, yes."
These usages are easily verified by anyone with Internet access, a browser and a search engine.
"This sort of fluff stirkes [sic] at the heart of why Wikipedia has such a low reputation as evidenced by recent news stories."
Your clearly partisan and non-NPOV edits to this disambiguation entry, the "Bill Clinton" entry and elsewhere within Wikipedia have more to do with such poor perception than the properly presented factual entries that you continue to vandalize.--68.164.157.51 06:20, 22 December 2005 (UTC)
It's a disambiguation page. The nickname refers to President Bush as well as other historical figures. BTW, given some of your other entries, a quick read through the NPOV might improve your contributions. Please sign your talk entries.--68.164.157.51 07:08, 22 December 2005 (UTC)
You may also find the page List of U.S. Presidential Nicknames informative. In addition to King George, you may object to Usurper-in-Chief, Commander-in-Thief, Commander Cuckoo Bananas, D-Dubya-I, Dumbya, Dubbia the Incoherent, Incurious George, The Great Divider, etc., all of which are listed. I'm curious given some of your other entries elsewhere whether you would express similar concern over such nicknames as Slick Willy or Bubba--68.164.157.51 16:36, 22 December 2005 (UTC)
