Nancy Pelosi on Bill Clinton's impeachment in 1998: 'Republicans are paralyzed with hatred'
FOX News ^ | 9/25/2019 | David Montanaro

Posted on 09/25/2019 10:58:30 AM PDT by Brown Deer

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi was singing a very different tune on impeachment when it was President Bill Clinton who was being accused by a Republican-led House of Representatives.

“Today the Republican majority is not judging the president with fairness, but impeaching him with a vengeance," then-House Minority Leader Pelosi declared on the House floor in December 1998.

She continued, "In the investigation of the president, fundamental principles which Americans hold dear -- fairness, privacy, checks and balances -- have been seriously violated and why? Because we are here today because the Republicans in the House are paralyzed with hatred of President Clinton. ... Until the Republicans free themselves of that hatred, our country will suffer.”

And Republicans got their asses handed to them for impeaching Clinton..now Dems, because they can’t deal with the fact that Trump beat them in 2016, are doing it 10 times over

No, conservatives are rolling on the floor laughing so hard they’re holding their sides with tears in their eyes after reading the CFR story.

We didn’t hate Clinton. We were disgusted by him. There’s a difference.

Their words should always come back to haunt them.

And many states still have adultery on the books as a prosecutablw crime. My state does.

This is a part of this, they want to hang the impeachment stain around Trump’s neck.

This is probably why Trump tweeted the same message. Street smart brilliance at work.

Bill Clinton was involved in actual common law crimes.

Charges against Trump are cartoon like by comparison.

Pelosi is wrong.

It is her party now that is overwhelmed by hate and deceit.

That was then, this is now. Democrats are possessed with an insane hatred for President Trump.

They’re engaged in a partisan vendetta and they have nothing that rises to the level of an impeachable offense.

There isn’t even an underlying crime alleged here.

“Nancy Pelosi on Bill Clinton’s impeachment in 1998: ‘Republicans are paralyzed with hatred’”

(paralyzed with hatred) Must have been a communicable disease because now they have it.

There’s a couple of Republicans in my house, but there’s no paralysis... just hatred for demonRATS is all.

Clinton committed perjury.

He was a perjurer: clear grounds for impeachment.

He’s also a multiple rapist of course. Not to mention the world-spanning fraud, drugs and murder.

Clinton committed a felony and also dishonored the Oval Office.

Democrats forgave him for it. So by their low standards, why can’t we forgive Trump?

He doesn’t even have a semen-stained dress to damn him.

Deflecting again Nan! I think all people wanting to become an elected Democrat have to go to, and get an A+ from Deflection University.
