Forget Monica for a moment, consider this statement from the story:

"Monica Lewinsky, whose highly publicized sexual relationship with US President Bill Clinton led to calls for his impeachment...

It was NOT the sexual hijinks with Emperor Billigula that 'led to calls for his impeachment', it was Clinton's PERJURY and his LIES which led to his impeachment:

Resolved, that William Jefferson Clinton, President of the United States, is impeached for high crimes and misdemeanors, and that the following articles of impeachment be exhibited to the United States Senate:

Articles of impeachment exhibited by the House of Representatives of the United States of America in the name of itself and of the people of the United States of America, against William Jefferson Clinton, President of the United States of America, in maintenance and support of its impeachment against him for high crimes and misdemeanors.

Article I

In his conduct while President of the United States, William Jefferson Clinton, in violation of his constitutional oath faithfully to execute the office of President of the United States and, to the best of his ability, preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States, and in violation of his constitutional duty to take care that the laws be faithfully executed, has willfully corrupted and manipulated the judicial process of the United States for his personal gain and exoneration, impeding the administration of justice, in that:

On August 17, 1998, William Jefferson Clinton swore to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth before a Federal grand jury of the United States. Contrary to that oath, William Jefferson Clinton willfully provided perjurious, false and misleading testimony to the grand jury concerning one or more of the following:

(1) the nature and details of his relationship with a subordinate Government employee;

(2) prior perjurious, false and misleading testimony he gave in a Federal civil rights action brought against him;

(3) prior false and misleading statements he allowed his attorney to make to a Federal judge in that civil rights action; and

(4) his corrupt efforts to influence the testimony of witnesses and to impede the discovery of evidence in that civil rights action.

In doing this, William Jefferson Clinton has undermined the integrity of his office, has brought disrepute on the Presidency, has betrayed his trust as President, and has acted in a manner subversive of the rule of law and justice, to the manifest injury of the people of the United States.

Wherefore, William Jefferson Clinton, by such conduct, warrants impeachment and trial, and removal from office and disqualification to hold and enjoy any office of honor, trust or profit under the United States.

Article III

In his conduct while President of the United States, William Jefferson Clinton, in violation of his constitutional oath faithfully to execute the office of President of the United States and, to the best of his ability, preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States, and in violation of his constitutional duty to take care that the laws be faithfully executed, has prevented, obstructed, and impeded the administration of justice, and has to that end engaged personally, and through his subordinates and agents, in a course of conduct or scheme designed to delay, impede, cover up, and conceal the existence of evidence and testimony related to a Federal civil rights action brought against him in a duly instituted judicial proceeding.

The means used to implement this course of conduct or scheme included one or more of the following acts:

(1) On or about December 17, 1997, William Jefferson Clinton corruptly encouraged a witness in a Federal civil rights action brought against him to execute a sworn affidavit in that proceeding that he knew to be perjurious, false and misleading.

(2) On or about December 17, 1997, William Jefferson Clinton corruptly encouraged a witness in a Federal civil rights action brought against him to give perjurious, false and misleading testimony if and when called to testify personally in that proceeding.

(3) On or about December 28, 1997, William Jefferson Clinton corruptly engaged in, encouraged, or supported a scheme to conceal evidence that had been subpoenaed in a Federal civil rights action brought against him.

(4) Beginning on or about December 7, 1997, and continuing through and including January 14, 1998, William Jefferson Clinton intensified and succeeded in an effort to secure job assistance to a witness in a Federal civil rights action brought against him in order to corruptly prevent the truthful testimony of that witness in that proceeding at a time when the truthful testimony of that witness would have been harmful to him.

(5) On January 17, 1998, at his deposition in a Federal civil rights action brought against him, William Jefferson Clinton corruptly allowed his attorney to make false and misleading statements to a Federal judge characterizing an affidavit, in order to prevent questioning deemed relevant by the judge. Such false and misleading statements were subsequently acknowledged by his attorney in a communication to that judge.

(6) On or about January 18 and January 20-21, 1998, William Jefferson Clinton related a false and misleading account of events relevant to a Federal civil rights action brought against him to a potential witness in that proceeding, in order to corruptly influence the testimony of that witness.

(7) On or about January 21, 23 and 26, 1998, William Jefferson Clinton made false and misleading statements to potential witnesses in a Federal grand jury proceeding in order to corruptly influence the testimony of those witnesses. The false and misleading statements made by William Jefferson Clinton were repeated by the witnesses to the grand jury, causing the grand jury to receive false and misleading information.

In all of this, William Jefferson Clinton has undermined the integrity of his office, has brought disrepute on the Presidency, has betrayed his trust as President, and has acted in a manner subversive of the rule of law and justice, to the manifest injury of the people of the United States.

Wherefore, William Jefferson Clinton, by such conduct, warrants impeachment and trial, and removal from office and disqualification to hold and enjoy any office of honor, trust or profit under the United States.

Nowhere in the above articles of impeachment does it say ANYTHING about a 'sexual relationship'. NOWHERE.

The House of Representatives DID their Constitutional Duty, unfortunately the exclusive Senatorial Pals & Buddies Club failed to do theirs.

I'm glad she found her calling and got a degree in economics.

She considered running for office but politics had left a bad taste in her mouth.

I agree. My heart breaks for her. Clinton walks around with a smirk on his puss and she is forever the butt of jokes. She deserves some peace.

[whose highly publicized sexual relationship with US President Bill Clinton led to calls for his impeachment...]

Sorry to be a stickler for accuracy in journalism but this needs to be corrected:

{whose highly publicized sexual relationship with US President Bill Clinton led to her involvement in the Paula Jones lawsuit against him, and Clinton's subsequent cover up, obstruction of justice and perjury resulted in his impeachment...}

I can just bet what Hillary is thinking right now, Hillary is thinking, "Oh Hell, what a tough week, first Sandy Berger is caught stuffing classified documents under a trailer, and trashing them..and now that Intern Bimbo gets some headlines...I need an ashtray to throw when Bill gets home. Where is Bill? ."

She would just “suck” up any opposition and “blow” her way into a “spot” in the democratic process.

Ex Pres Clinton stated that he first noticed her because of her dazzling smile. In fact he said, "Monica had the whitest teeth...

Sorry. Can't go through with it. Never mind. Bad joke getting the death it deserves. Nothing to see here.

Close, but not quite. She actually earned a "Masters of Science degree in Social Psychology" from the London School of Economics.

But I'm sure she can have her pick of good jobs with that SocPsy degree. *snicker*

But seriously, if she did, in fact, transform herself from being a cheap, trashy political groupie into a more mature woman with a sense of self respect, then good for her.

I give her a lot of credit for this accomplishment. I actually was afraid at one point that she would commit suicide. Glad to see that she's making something of her life. There's a lesson here for all of us.

Well, if we are to believe all the well informed sympathizers here, the gal sucked in real hard and blew right through the program! (Though I find it a little hard to swallow, and would like to know who exactly this "inspiration to returning students" did blow to get in and graduate.)
