    Actually you have your facts mixed up. Clinton wasn't impeached for getting a blow job. Here is text from the Library of Congress on the impeachment:

    "On Article I, that charged that the President "...willfully provided perjurious, false and misleading testimony to the grand jury" and made "...corrupt efforts to influence the testimony of witnesses and to impede the discovery of evidence" in the Paula Jones lawsuit, the President was found not guilty with 45 Senators voting for the President's removal from office and 55 against. Ten Republicans split with their colleagues to vote for acquittal; all 45 Democrats voted to acquit. On Article II, charging that the President "...has prevented, obstructed, and impeded the administration of justice"..., the vote was 50-50, with all Democrats and five Republicans voting to acquit"

      And saying that a president is responsible for the deaths of soldiers at war is completely ignorant.

      Lincoln started the civil war - I guess he is responsible for those hundreds of thousands of deaths.

      Washington started the revolutionary war - he is responsible for thousands of deaths.

      Nixon, JFK, LBJ, Truman, Jackson, FD, Teddy, Van Buren, Wilson - shit the list could go on and on and on and on.

        Once again....Where did I say he was impeached??? I said he "faced impeachment." Geezus man. No wonder you think the president and the 6 years of Conservate Congress done this country well.....

          Oh and if you can't understand the paragraph above about the impeachment trial of Clinton (I know you had a hard time understanding some pretty elementary stuff earlier in this thread and others) it means he was impeached for perjury and obstruction of justice.

            Welfare is not a long term solution to people bettering their lives. I have no problem with it in the short term. Your kind would rather keep the poor relying on these meager handouts instead of working there way out of his way of life.


            Your comment about liberating Muslims proves you are the racist one. Where is your compasion for them?? Not your color??? These people and particularly the women were brutalized under Saddam. Even your Rhodes Scholar hero Clinton knew that. Bush had the balls to do what the UN could not and would not do.

              Comparing the Civil War to this war is ignorant....

              Bush declared war on a country for faulty information. And because of that, thousands have lost their lives. The only thing that's ignorant is that you believe we belong there or that we needed to go....

                Oh I understood it, too bad in your case ignorance is bliss....

                Bottom line, he faced impeachment hearings for a blowjob. It's what led to all the accusations and all the perjury and obstruction of justice. Maybe you need to go back to school instead of continuing to insinuate or assume.....

                  Laughing out loud again. This is fun.

                  You really aren't a history guy are you. I teach American History.

                  Clinton WAS IMPEACHED. Here is a little history lesson for you.

                  Impeachment is so rare that the term can be misunderstood. (as you have clearly demonstrated) A typical misconception is to confuse it with involuntary removal from office - this is not the case. Impeachment is the charge by the House of Representatives that the President should be tried for removal from office. If impeached the vote goes to the Senate who needs 2/3 majority to remove the president. This is called a conviction.

                  2 presidents have been impeached. Meaning that they were found guilty enough to be tried for removal from office. Andrew Johnson and Bill Clinton. Neither one was convicted by the Senate.

                  I am glad to enlighten you.

                    Clinton did not face impeachment - he was impeached. He was not convicted. At least you learned something.

                      Declaring war under the conditions that he did, which were weapons of mass destruction, was incorrect. And funny how all these so called people, who we are fighting for, want us the hell out???

                      We could also do battle with Iran, N Korea, China, etc, etc. for the same reasons you listed. And don't think he won't or hasn't seriously thought about it. Typical war mongering. Nazi Germany buddy. Maybe you can go find an island and start your own country of biggots....

                          What part of, "he faced impeachment for a blowjob," didn't you get?

                          What part of, "he was impeached for perjury and obstruction of justice" don't you think I get?

                            Are you really that bull headed that you think that he faced impeachment for a blowjob? That was what he was on trial for? Come on you are smarter then that.

                            He faced impeachment, and was impeached for perjury and obstruction of justice.

                            If he wouldn't have perjured himself and obstructed justice there never would have been an impeachment. It is not hard to understand.

                            What would be a correct statement is "Clinton getting a blowjob led to his impeachment." That is true. But he consciously made the decision to lie about it under oath. If he doesn't do that - the whole impeachment issue goes away.

                              You misconstrued my statement. I understand because of the way I worded it. That's all I'll say. I know what happened to Clinton Kim....Trust me, I don't need a history lesson.

                              I'm glad I can have these arguments in a free country. Some others would disagree. I'm also glad I can say I think Bush is an evil POS. Contrary to others opinions. Thanks for serving in this country. I have no problem with that. I think you're blind by your commitment to the Conservative party. There have been numerous reasons to impeach Bush. I listed them on here a while back. Clinton was set up by the Republican's. Unfortunately, he fell for the bait. I think what he did was far less impeachable than what Bush or even Reagan did for that matter....

                              That's my opinion. Thanks for fighting to give me that right to have it.

                              As the Kapt would say.....Good night to you Professor.

                                Thanks for the respect for my service. It is appreciated.

                                That is one of the things that makes this a great country. We can voice our opinions and not get thrown in jail!

                                I agree I am stubborn and a conservative Republican. That isn't going to change. You are the opposite. That is great. I like having a little sparring match here and there with smart and informed people from the other side. I am sure we might have more of these discussions. (and neither of us will change our minds! LOL)

                                Good night
