That was not the point of my post. It was to show that you didn't
understand what impeachment meant. Unfortunately it went right over your
head.

And so the news says he was impeached... The news also said he was
acquitted...

Lets see, acquittal, means he was found not guilty.

That was verified by the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court:
"It is therefore ordered and adjudged that William Jefferson Clinton be
and
hereby is acquitted of the charges in the said articles," declared Chief
Justice William Rehnquist in the Senate chamber.

Sorry, you were outvoted by the United States Senate, you were also called
a
liar by the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court.

Get over it, Clinton was found INNOCENT by a jury of his peers.

CLINTON IMPEACHED
_____

HE FACES A SENATE TRIAL, 2D IN HISTORY; VOWS TO DO JOB TILL TERM'S 'LAST
HOUR'

By ALISON MITCHELL

WASHINGTON, Dec. 19 - William Jefferson Clinton was impeached on charges
of
perjury and obstruction of justice today by a divided House of
Representatives, which recommended virtually along party lines that the
Senate remove the nation's 42d President from office.

A few hours after the vote, Mr. Clinton, surrounded by Democrats, walked
onto the South Lawn of the White House, his wife, Hillary, on his arm,
to
pre-empt calls for his resignation. The man who in better days had
debated
where he would stand in the pantheon of American Presidents said
he would stay in office and vowed "to go on from here to rise above the
rancor, to overcome the pain and division, to be a repairer of the
breach."
Later, Mr. Clinton called off the bombing in Iraq, declaring the mission
accomplished. Mr. Clinton became only the second President in history to
be
impeached, in a stunning day that also brought the resignation of the
incoming Speaker of the House, Robert L. Livingston.

He was charged, he was not convicted. With no conviction he is
innocent.

Sorry but your impeachment song doesn't play any longer

Wow...the lunatic fringe element of right-wing obviously is getting
*very* nervous. How delightful. And with a really good chance now that
their dumb boy Bush will lose the election (beyond fixing it), we've
only begin to see their bile.

Poor Jackoff.


Jack,
It looks like you have gotten the best of Harry. You can always see when he
starts his diatribe concerning the "right wing".

LOL, he was impeached. Accept it..

before
a proper tribunal.
I see nothing in this definition that says he is guilty of anything... It
mearly says to make an accusation... The accusation was proven false.

So was OJ. But get over it already, Clinton was IMPEACHED. Look up the
meaning, and have a 10 year old explain it to you. Spin it all you
want,
but he was IMPEACHED.

He *was* IMPEACHED. Get it yet?

You *do* understand that acquittal in a court of law, and being innocent
of the charge you were acquitted of have little to do with each other,
right? That there are many reasons an acquittal can be reached, and true
*innocence* of the charge levied is only one of them?

Excuse me, but not in this country. In this country, you are *innocent*
until *proven* guilty.


Not if you're a Patriot (with a capital "P"), like Jack.



By almost all rational criteria, our country is in far worse shape than
it was before Bush assumed office.

We're mired in a trumped-up war, with hundreds of American soldiers dead.

The budget deficit is through the roof.

Civil liberties are under attack.

Our standing in the world has fallen.

Anti pollution regs have been softened.

Workers rights have diminished.

And the list goes on and on and on.


We have an affable idiot in the white house now. We deserve better.

Uh, Jackoff...if the US House at that time was not controlled by rabid

vote would have been quite different.


If Clinton had told the truth he wouldn't have been impeached.



Bull****. The rabid Republicans in the House were out for blood.

Again, charges mean nothing if they are unable to convict...

Your impeachment song doesn't play any longer

Really a shame you have nothing better to do than hang onto a bad charge...

Right. And the main mouthpiece behind that impeachment was Newt Gingrich. Do
you remember what silenced HIM?

1) Except for mine, we know that nobody's dick is so big that a blowjob
requires a month or two (the length of Bush's vacation) to finish.

Hehe... is there really any possibility now that Doug is carrying a full
6-pack?

What a dim-wit... too funny.
Maybe Harry will come around and circle-jerk you to make you feel better.

In the meantime... has anyone offered GW Bin Laden's head on a platter?
Answer: NO.

Did anyone offer Clinton Bid Laden's head on a platter? Answer: YES

Now go away and come back when you're all grown up.

Too funny Doug. Can you crack me up some more?

My wife pegged Clinton the first time she saw him. Used car salesman.
