It is 2 examples of the sitting POTUS being brought up on Impeachment charges. One was Abuse of Power and Obstruction, other was Perjury and Obstruction. But in both examples at least 1 Repub didn't "toe the party line". So what Dill said was rather hypocritical with all things considered. It really has nothing to do with which was worse.

What both did was stupid in my opinion.

EDIT: And Dill's response was pretty much the same.

46 years ago a Republican Senate told their president they would vote to remove him from office, once it was clear he sought to quash investigation into his abuse of power and fired his own investigators. No reason to believe they'd have done that had he lied about a BJ. 

If we are talking about party double standards based upon false equivalence,
then which was "worse" has everything to do with it.

You are dismissing the vast difference in the nature and degree of violation recorded in these impeachments 
by restricting your comparison to no more than Senate voting tallies.

That's what produces the false equivalence. 

The Democratic party is no mirror image of the Republican.
No Dem could remain in power doing what Trump does; s/he would lose voter and party backing.
