WASHINGTON Defiant but red-eyed, President Clinton yesterday vowed "I will never step aside," throwing down the gauntlet to Republicans who impeached him.

After meeting House Democrats in the White House's East Room, Clinton marched the entourage to a pep rally on the South Lawn, saying he intends to do the nation's business "until the last hour of the last day of my term."

What Nixon and Clinton did seem so minor next to the abuses Obama is doing every day.

Clinton was the one who said a President is not fit to serve if he lied. Hmmm.

I remember when the Monica scandal first broke, a group of the usual gang of leftists TV reporters said that if it was true, Clinton was gone.

I think it was Cokie Roberts who actually said that. Then the next thing you knew, the Democrats along with their media allies began to do whatever it took to save him. They lied and lied and lied some more. They attacked anyone who attacked Clinton.

Incredibly, they did save him.

If Clinton had not been impeached, his wife would have become a US Senator and maybe even Secretary of State.

If he had been doing the nation's business, we would have had air and armor support over Mogadishu, not had the first WTC bombing, Khobar Towers, US embassies, USS Cole, and ultimately 9/11. Throw in the idiotic Operation Merlin for good measure.

This POS had very different priorities.

If Clinton had not been impeached, his wife could have become president right after Algore’s two terms.

What I didn’t know back then (and perhaps a lot of FReepers along with me) was that Huma was in the WH intern class with Monica.
I think BJ and Hill were doing the daily double, but only BJ got publicized.

Monica has gone on to a life of irrelevance and shame, and Huma will be WH Chief of Staff in Jan ‘17.

Good point. Now she’ll have to wait for 2017 after defeating Jeb Bush.
Followed by Michelle Robinson Obama in 2025 and Chelsea Clinton-Mezvinsky in 2033.

I remember that Clinton fired off a lot of cruse missiles that day when the senate voted. It stopped 5 minutes after the senate voted not guilty.

Maybe so. I’m not as good at prophesying the future as I am at seeing alternative timelines. ;^)

Much of my commentary is snark.

I actually think Hillary is not even going to be the nominee.

I’m not even sure she has enough juice in her tank to last through the campaign/caucus cycle without physical breakdown.

That makes two of us. I prefer the adjective 'sarcasm' though. lol
