Adultery wasn't the issue (though it's clearly wrong).
Perjury & obstruction of justice, however...

lying still is, and it was wrong of him to do it
it was also wrong of the current administration
None. He was impeached, but he was not forced to resign. Impeachment is an accusation that requires a trial before the Senate. Here's a summary of the events
Lying is stll wrong. Clinton lied about failing to return his fly to its full upright position. Guess we could move it to Politics and News and discuss the merits of lying to take the nation to war and get a good number of Americans killed along with thousands of others.Originally posted by: Staley8

Hey retards, there's a Politics and News forum expressly for stupid flamewars like the BS you're pulling now. Move your stupid crap there.
Depends on your culture and beliefs.

Clinton lied about getting some on the side, GWB twisted the truth to kill thousands and earn billions for his campaign contributers and powerful corporate allies. Make your own judgement. Something to consider, the rest of the world laughed at the republicans who impeached Bill and they are now truly scared of the current administration.

i read something like this and i cant help but think how much of a disconnect democrats have with reality. no wonder its been all downhill for them since 1998 (or whatever year it was that they lost control of the senate and house)
but what really boggles the mind is how he was found not guilty. i mean surely he purgered himself and obstructed justice, but for 55 senators to blantantly disregard the law and to say that he in fact did not commit purgery or obstruct justice is truely pathetic
should he have been removed from office? maybe, maybe not - but he was guilty as charged

ya, just goes to show how corrupt our govenment is.
oh and my little own tinfoil hat consperacy theory is that the powers that be set up the whole Clinton lying under oath thing to desensitise the populous in preperation for the current adminisation to lie about their justfication for war.

he lied under oath, he told Lewinsky to lie under oath, for this he was impeached (only second President in History to be impeached), and he was disbarred...
i am at a loss how anyone can believe "he did nothing wrong" unless of course you share Pres. Clinton's moral compass.
