Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich acknowledged he was having an extramarital affair even as he led the charge against President Clinton over the Monica Lewinsky affair .......

The charges in the Clinton impeachment were NOT about having an affair.

The charges in the Clinton impeachment were PERJURY and OBSTRUCTION OF JUSTICE.

Scooter Libby did not get convicted this week for revealing Valerie Plame's CIA connection. Libby was convicted for lying under oath and obstructing justice ......... The exact same things that Clinton did at the deposition in the Paula Jones lawsuit.

If Newt Gingrich had sexually harassed another woman, had been sued by that other woman and had lied during deposition, under oath, about his affair, then the situations between Gingrich and Clinton would have been analogous.

The author of this article knows all this but the agenda of the liberal news media is to indoctrinate the reader with a political agenda and not to educate him with historical facts.

"The charges in the Clinton impeachment were NOT about having an affair."

And I've said nothing of the sort.

Nor does the article.
