Former President Bill Clinton shared an anecdote regarding Nelson Mandela and the aftermath of his impeachment Friday on CNN.
Clinton revealed shortly after the impeachment business finished on Capitol Hill, Rep. Henry Hyde (R., Ill.) who managed the impeachment trial requested a meeting at the White House.
The former president granted the meeting out of lessons of humility and forgiveness he learned from Mandela, he said:
BILL CLINTON: I remember one day, oh, about a month after the whole impeachment business was over...

Henry Hyde and the House Managers were honorable men, trying to do the honorable thing. Monica Lewinsky is a young woman whose life was defecated on by this bloated liar. He should have been impeached AND removed by the Senate IF the Senate had been interested in doing the honorable thing. - As it is, we are STUCK with this pasty-faced ELDER STATESMAN fraud from now on; and maybe his “wife” as our POTUS with him as our FLOTUS. oh joy! She and Obama are two peas in a pod. “She” will “fix” healthcare, really fix it big time.
Post of the day.
The guilty party has to forgive those who cornered him. Right

“Nelson Mandela was famously imprisoned for his persistent pursuit of democratic equality and for being a hell of a guy .... “
Al Capone was famously imprisoned for his stubborn refusal to accept the tyrannical 18th amendment, which was repealed, and his love for mankind ...
Clinton & Obama, in unison: “Enough about me! Why don’t you tell me what you think of me.”
Bubba is as big a megalomaniac as Obama but he usually hides it better.
Alec Baldwin wasn’t so forgiving:
“we would stone Henry Hyde to death and we [would] go to their homes and we’d kill their wives and children.”
December 15, 1998, Alec Baldwin
I forget. What evidence was in that secure office that Clinton forbade his fellow democrats from viewing?
I’ll never forgive the Republicans for impeaching Clinton over a personal sex scandal - instead of impeaching him for high treason.
don’t forget helping to lead his Xhosa tribe in fighting and killing against the Zulu tribe
I really think the Clintons are something I hope is rare. They are both totally corrupt in every way. Just being corrupt is not enough for them tho as they are also as evil as it is possible to be.
I am not sure which one is worse but it doesn’t matter as either one is horrible.
FU, Slick.
Exactly, it is all a lie.
Of course, for Clinton, it matters what the definition of “forgiveness” is.
Let's also not forget that it was Slick's continued pansy ass reactions to Islamonazi terrorism that led to 9/11 and the War on Terror.
Yep. Like that time that Hilary was “pinned down by sniper fire” in the former Yugoslav Republic.
“Lessons of humility”? Bill Clinton? Why yes. Of course. The man has all the humility of Miley Cyprus.
