I am asking the House to rescind the Clinton impeachment articles |
|
The latest wisdom from the conservative Republic party is that perjury and obstruction of justice are technicalities and that they are just drummed up charges that prosecutors use when they can't indict the suspect for the "real" crime. They tell us that if the suspect did not commit the crime for which they were originally being investigated that perjury and obstruction should just be overlooked.
Fine. Bill Clinton was impeached by the House on two counts, one for perjury in front of the federal grand jury and again for obstruction of justice in the investigation of the Paula Jones civil lawsuit. That suit was dismissed and then settled. In fact, Clinton was never charged with any crime.
Hence, I am now asking the House of Representatives to schedule a vote for consideration of the repeal of the Clinton impeachment articles enacted in December of 1998. If the resolution passes, the articles will be expunged from the Congressional Record, and members will be forbidden to ever speak of them again on the House floor.
I can wait.

But don't be disappointed if they say no, considering the jackals are in control of the process.
And yes, I call the bastards the Republic Party too, and Republics...EVERYONE in the Democratic Party should follow our suit as well.
