[Hi all. 'Tis Angelica, otherwise known as Battlepanda.]
Watergate and Monica. Yeah, they're the same. Don't take my word for it, listen to retiring congressmen Henry Hyde, who lead the <strike>witchhunt</strike> impeachment efforts against Clinton.
The veteran republican is also admitting forthe first time that the impeachment of Clinton may have been in partpolitical revenge against the democrats for the impeachment proceedingsagainst GOP President Richard Nixon 25 years earlier.
"Was this pay back?" asked Andy Shaw.
"I can't say it wasn't. But I also thought that the Republican Partyshould stand for something, and if we walked away from this, no matterhow difficult, we could be accused of shirking our duty," said Hyde
Lets see, we've got obstruction of justice, abuses of power, and contempt of Congress on the one hand, and White House hanky-panky on the other. I guess they're just about each as bad as the other. If you're a republican.
