"I think it would have been better to impeach him based on the informal vote-buying Clinton did to get NAFTA through, but that's just me."

Better?! That would certainly place Senator "I voted Aye For NAFTA" Kerry in a bind today, one presumes...

No, former President Clinton deserved impeachment not for Monica (though the related perjury offense might merit it), but for his non-UN-sanctioned war on Serbia over "mass graves" that turned out to be based on faulty intelligence, against a treatied (1917) ally of the U.S. at the behest and in concert with anti-American Islamic Mujahedeen from Iran and Afghanistan as well as with the known terrorist KLA organization in 1999. A war in which he bombed the Chinese embassy and had his top general of that war (Clark) order British General Jackson to open fire on Russian paratroopers at the Pristina airport, an act that *would* have started a global nuclear war had the British General not disobeyed that direct order.

Southack, we've been down this road before, but facts are your friend. Not even Sir Michael Jackson, the butcher of Derry, claims that Clark ordered his to "open fire" on Russian troops. You know full well that the order that led to the "WWIII" exchange was for his men to occupy the runways before the Russian troops could do so to prevent Russian transports from landing.

People can debate the foolishness of that order all they want. But it is false to claim that Clark gave an order to open fire, and I'm sure you know that.
