Although Clinton has been able to rise above it historically, they did succeed to an extent by tying his hands and monopolizing public attention for two years...Ultimately, the smelly fallout helped contribute to the defeat of Gore.

Hopefully the public (and media) won't fall for it again...But we're not always a very intelligent country and it could still become a giant needless pain in the ass.

I love your sarcasm....not Armstead Nov 2012 #3

You're quite welcome to believe anything you please. 99Forever Nov 2012 #16

I don't necessarily disagree...I just get sick of this type of internal discussion-board sniping. Armstead Nov 2012 #18

The repukes were talking about impeaching Obama way before the election MiniMe Nov 2012 #4

True, but they have talked about a lot of things -- actually trying is something else Armstead Nov 2012 #7

I just don't see how they can justify it... marions ghost Nov 2012 #5

of course they are. Watch for this key phrase: "the president lied." librechik Nov 2012 #6

If "lying" was grounds for impeachment, the Rethugs should be impeached for lying about lying Armstead Nov 2012 #11

It's only a crime if a Democrat lies. Repubs follow other god-blessed rules. librechik Nov 2012 #37

Yes, Romney's campaign was a working example of that principle Armstead Nov 2012 #38

IIRC, they were throwing around "impeachment" before the election. City Lights Nov 2012 #8

three things -- I'd add narcisscistic ego to that list Armstead Nov 2012 #14

And look how childish they are being treestar Nov 2012 #21

Of course. They failed to steal or buy the election so impeachment is their next step. yardwork Nov 2012 #10

Good. I want them to lose the House in 2014. nt geek tragedy Nov 2012 #12

Of course. It's what they do. treestar Nov 2012 #15

They also pick their noses and cheat on their spouses -- I just wish they... Armstead Nov 2012 #20

I hoped they'd stick with "scandals" like birtherism or their phony outrages over creeping socialism Armstead Nov 2012 #30

Armstead, may I suggest that you are wrong? ChairmanAgnostic Nov 2012 #24

I hope I am wrong Armstead Nov 2012 #31

Yes. It will fail in the Senate but the damage done to Obama's 2nd term would be worth it riderinthestorm Nov 2012 #25

It's sounds to me like some of the GOPers didn't get the memo.... Grammy23 Nov 2012 #26

At the moment there are a whole lot of conflicting memos flying around Armstead Nov 2012 #35

Yes, because impeaching Bill Clinton worked out so well for the Republicans (nt) Nye Bevan Nov 2012 #27

It did, in the sense of being a huge time-consuming distraction. WinkyDink Nov 2012 #33

They had better tread lightly. Those ORCA-busters are still around. Ms. Kelley is WinkyDink Nov 2012 #32
