Reply #68: "It" didn't "paralyze the running of our nation" [View All]

The Republican witch hunt did.

Obviously the COUNTRY thought that's exactly what it was and supported Clinton all the more during it.

Again, you apparently think the reason the Republicans went on with all this crap, that the reason why we had hearings and impeachment and the like, is because of "THE SEX he had."

You're wrong. The reason for it was revenge for Nixon. Openly stated as such by the chairman of the Judiciary Committee, Henry Hyde (R). If it wasn't an affair, it would have been something else. Oh wait. It WAS something else!

Whitewater, FBI Filegate, Socks the Cat's fanmail!! -- the Christmas card list, Vince Foster's suicide ("murder"), and on and on. Clinton could have sat his ass at the Oval Office desk for 8 years, not moved from the chair, and worked nonstop around the clock, and the Republicans would have impeached him for working TOO much.
