Perspective: leading the US into an unnecessary war in Iraq, under what most reasonable people would say were trumped up claims and distorted logic, which then directly led to 3000+ American military deaths, and a multiple of that in Iraqi deaths..... Not a felony.

A woman claims a man (IMF chief Strauss today) forced her into some sex acts: mere accusation causes him to be led off a plane and put into a jail cell pending a full trial. Before a fair trail, he's now in jail. Based on one person's accusation. (Which may or may not be legitimate, or may have been a honeypot setup, we don't know yet, and may never know.)
Several men and women claim a man (and his administration) did (the things I claimed in my first paragraph): neither Bush or Cheney or any other top leader ever spent time in jail to this day, nor even charged in the first place. (Libby doesn't count, he was charged with something else, a formality.)
What's broken here?
