Been carting that tidbit around since you mis-posted, way back when?
I recall your putting things more-or-less as Busyman is doing now.
You must split that hair even more finely in order to continue your disagreement, I think.![]()

Busy is saying he was not impeached because the senate didn't convict, and I can see his point on this but it is dependent on the definition of "impeach".
I am saying say he was impeached but found not guilty. I am not splitting any hairs on this. He went through the impeachment process and was acquitted. Get over it.
Anti clintons keep saying "clinton was impeached" but keep omitting the fact that he was found not guilty.
On the latter Busy was also correct that it was a witch hunt. Let's be honest about that. When republicans ask how can anyone support clinton, "after all he was impeached", they should really ask how can anyone support clinton after we tried to impeach him but failed.
it’s an election with no Democrats, in one of the whitest states in the union, where rich candidates pay $35 for your votes. Or, as Republicans call it, their vision for the future.
Oic.
Actually fuck it everyone's correct.
When people say, "Well Clinton was impeached." The answer should be, "So what!!"
Impeachment is a process...almost interchangable with indictment (spelling)....or for us lesser politically inclined folk, charged.
Clinton was impeached, Andrew Johnson was, and so was Nixon.
None were convicted. So fuck it. (Nixon did resign to avoid it)
vid you're correct. j2 you're correct. I wasn't.

partly right. the common definition of impeach: to accuse. the definition as concerns the U.S. president is: to complete the impeachment process and vote to approve the Articles Of Impeachment. some people might refer to the process leading up to the vote as impeachment, but it really isn't impeachment until they hold the vote and it succeeds.Originally Posted by Busyman
as far as the Nixon case goes, he was not impeached. the House Of Representatives carried the hearings to the point that they drew up the Articles Of Impeachment that they needed to vote upon, at which point Nixon decided to dodge the impeachment by resigning. then Gerald Ford pardoned him, to eliminate the possibility of a criminal trial. the resignation and pardon each had a very distinct purpose -- one to block Congress and the other to block the courts.
Clinton and Jackson are the only two who have been impeached, as Congress did vote upon their Articles Of Impeachment and approved them, in both cases.

I think you meant Clinton and Johnson (Andrew), but, if you are willing to posit this as the definitive word on the matter, I'm with you.Originally Posted by 3RA1N1AC
