Can someone explain the impeachment of Bill Clinton?

Can someone explain the impeachment of Bill Clinton?

Dude was impeached for f****** a ho?

No, he was impeached for perjury.

He wasn't impeached. It failed twice

he was impeached for lying without having a vagina

So he was basically impeached for having sex?

Why are you so puritanical?

He was, two impeachment charges passed in the house. The senate acquitted him.

He was impeached for lying about it on a signed statement.

He violated the law, which was also why he was disbarred.

We take an oath very seriously

He was impeached for lying about it under oath.

Then he was disbarred by the American Bar Association and can never again practice as a lawyer.

He is an adjudicated pathological liar.

This and it was overturned in a 50/50 vote

But it was such a petty lie, was it not?

Which is why he got off

An oath is an oath, user. You can just break it.

This.

He was impeached for lying about it under oath. Honesty.

This, but the impeachment is separate from an indictment. It's the difference between pressing charges (the impeachment) and not being found guilty of them (which happened when the dems wouldn't vote against clinton).

You can't overturn an impeachment, he had a little show trial and was acquitted of the charges.

Many others have gone to jail for perjury about sexual matters.

He got off because he's powerful.

They have the dirty on all of the people in politics. They can even manufacture it now where it doesn't exist at all (you think hollywood CGI is good...).

He must have did something that somebody didnt like

So they smeared him, and he managed to get out of it mostly.

Just imagine how much of this shit actually, I mean actually goes on day to day. Like little kids and everything.

Being blown by your secretary intern trying to blow her way to the top is minor. But its a smear.

Yes he was retard.

Impeached means hauled before Congress and brought up on charges.
He was acquitted but he was still Impeached.

Vast, right wing conspiracy

YOU DUMB FUKKING MORON!

He was impeached because HE LIED UNDER OATH to Congress! It's called perjury! and it's a FELONY offensive especially jury to CONGRESS!!!!

It's not about cheating on his wife in the oval house and the sacred grounds of the White House, it's about looking into the camera and lying so easily to the American people and the courts!

Daily reminder Brazilian Brazilian throw their SHITTY used toilet paper in the garbage bin instead of flushing it down the toilet

Bill was the Romeo of American presidents.

No because he lied about it under oath.

You expect far more from a leader

You can't LIE under oath...PERIOD!

There is NO such thing as a little perjury or a lot of perjury. Perjury is Perjury! What part of Perjury don't you understand?

But hillary lied under oath

Isn't it pretty much open and shut that Hillary committed perjury when she testified to congress? Must run in the family.

That cunt should be in prison too!

Ya, well she has a lot of money and moloch behind her.

Didn't he also turn her into a humidor?

he wasn't impeached for fucking his wife though

Man Bill must have not had any for a while.

Lied under oath playa

He went after any and all women around him.

>perjury = sex
>low reading comprehension
Your first language must be Portuguese

Pretty straightforward. Monica was an intern, Bill was the most powerful man in the world, but a public official. When Congress found out he was banging his employee in the oval office, they decided to probe to see if there was anything illegal going on. It's clearly a conflict of interest. Were the Republicans innocently just trying to uphold the rule of law? Of course not. They were obviously elated that Billy boy slipped up and it was a great chance to embarass him with a legitimate cover. But then the dumb bastard lied under oath, which is a crime, and gave them what they never could've dreamed of. A chance at impeachment. People act like the Republicans were huge hypocrites here. Of course they were. It's fucking politics. Bill did something insanely and blatantly stupid and they tried to nail him for it. If the Democrats could've done the same to Bush, they would have.

The dems should have nailed bush for war crimes tbqh

because America has a two-party system where both sides are actually competing for power, so either side actually opposes the government, and they do all they can to remove the other side as soon as they do something illegal. Not like third world shitholes like Brazil where opposition is barely existent, we have 30 parties in congress, everyone lies and gets away with it. Even in our impeachment the rising party protects the former ruling party because they were all in it together.

Can't now. Obama's done just as bad, if not worse, yet he's their poster child for how """""successful""""" they are

>war crimes
That shit would've never passed because evidence was scant. And if the wind was blowing that way, then he would've just resigned like Nixon and then Dick fucking Cheney would be the POTUS. You want job security as president? Make someone who's a real sack of shit your V.P. lol.

Ew, autism.

No, he was impeached for perjuring himself before a grand fucking jury when he was asked whether he had fucked her. Which is a huge deal in itself, as the President cannot be trusted if he is willing to lie in the most serious circumstances, and is therefore unfit to be President. It's also a big deal because they finally managed to nail Clinton on literally anything after years of being given the slip.

Keep in mind that Clinton is actually a thug and a crime boss of the worst sort. Keep in mind that Lewinsky was only one of hundreds of women. Keep in mind that many of those women were threatened, blackmailed, bankrupted, blacklisted, thrown in prison, and, in some cases, killed after going public about it. The man has committed bribery, embezzlement, fraud, tax evasion, extortion, obstruction of justice, assault, battery, arson, cruelty to animals, malfeasance of office, kidnapping, rape, murder, sedition and, in all likelyhood, outright treason.

But all kids are told about it today is that he got unfairly treated for having a side bitch. So much fucking ignorance.

slick willy

He was impeached cause his crappy wife wouldn't toss him a BJ now and then when he needed one.

underrated

Are you doubting Dick "I thought my friend was a deer" Cheney?

This.

It was bullshit. Republicans wanted Clinton o it and latched onto a supposed perjury charge to impeach. Clinton did nothing wrong, in the questioning he was not specific what woman he had sex with or the definition of the word "to".

>The dems should have nailed bush for war crimes tbqh
Thats a can of worms you dont want to open. Obama and every president since Truman has commited war crimes and if you try to charge one you pretty much have to charge a lot more.

Still mad after all these years. It was none of your business who Bill was fucking and I support lying if it means busy bodies get told off.

>s. It was none of your business
False. Not only was Bill an ELECTED public official, but he was also in charge of the largest military in the world. IF hes lying about 1 thing chances are hes going to be lying about a lot more than just sex.

As soon as you run for office to be president you make it everyone elses business beacuse you were elected to do a fucking job

Who the president is fucking doesn't matter. Grow up, he got his dick wet so what? Was anyone killed? Did people starve? No? No one should have been asking him who he was fucking in the first place

B...but muh ethical behavior
Muh president must be a strong role model

He was impeached for perjury.

I don't think anyone could have blamed Bill for his affair, especially looking at Hillary.

But the fact that he went out of his way to cover up any involvement of sexual allegations utilizing public funds and then LYING about it doesn't paint too great of a picture either, considering his other sexual escapades in the white house that are now just coming to life.

How is that nigger Bill campaigning for Shitlery? The faggot fucking desecrated the highest office in the world. Everyone only remembers him for this one thing. Sure, nobody can really blame him for doing this considering that he is married to that old dirtbag, but it was just shameful and he didn't even have the decency to tell the god damn truth.

>brazilian perception of honesty

>Bubba lies under oath about one of the countless side pieces he fucked
>(insert innumerable unearthed transgressions here)
>twenty years pass
>>"Why is there so much degeneracy in the States now????"

Nah, he raped a bunch of women too.
Even when he was like 20, he raped a nurse at some hospital he was working at.
Look it up.
