The only president who was ever impeached was BILL CLINTON.

Right about Nixon, wrong about Clinton. He was impeached and acquitted, but he wasn't the only one. So was Andrew Johnson.

Well .. I hate to break it to ya, but CLINTON WAS IMPEACHED. The House brings impeachment articles - when they are voted upon and there are enough votes (which there were) - IMPEACHMENT TAKES PLACE! It's the Senate who determines if the person will be removed from office - that's all.

CLINTON WAS IMPEACHED - he just wasn't removed from office. The very same thing happened to Andrew Johnson. He was impeached, but managed to hold on by 1 vote from being removed from office.
