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
