The third anniversary of the impeachment of Clinton by the US House of Representatives!

Yes on December 19, 2001 huge celebrations of the saving of equal justice under American law were held throughout the land!

All the cable media ran constant rebroadcasts of the 1998 proceedings; newspapers ran editorials and essays, politicians delivered homilies, and the whole world celebrated the anniversary of the rebuke of the only US president to try to block a Supreme Court ruling with his criminal acts against the very law he swore to uphold.

You can add the Chandra Levy disappearance in May and the Gary Conditit investigation through the summer months.

Andrea Yates in June.

The Inauguration of President George W. Bush in January!!!!!
