As I just told nopardons, I stated that wrong, Clinton was impeached but it wasn’t confirmed.
Nixon resigned because he knew he was about to be impeached. Another politician I couldn’t stand...I still remember him holding up two “peace” signs all the time and saying “I am not a crook”...yeah right...
Those were Churchillian V for Victory signs that Nixon did. The whole "I AM NOT A CROOK" goes back to when he was Ike's VEEP and many pols were accepting BIG TIME gifts and payoffs from lobbyists and corporations. All Nixon had EVER accepted was a puppy named CHECKERS for his girls.
Nixon was not a "bad" president and he WAS an honorable man; a VERY honorable man.
Sadly, you've swallowed, as whole cloth, the BOVINE EXCREMENT that the Commies and lefties/Dems have tarred Mr. Nixon with since he beat Helen Gahagan Douglas for that California Senate seat.
No such critter. One is either Impeached or they are not. There is no "confirmation" process.
Once a person is successfully Impeached there is a session in the Senate where the Impeachment is considered and a trial ensues presided over by The Chief Justice and then a vote to see if they are guilty or not of the impeachment requiring a two thirds majority to convict. If found guilty then a punishment is decided usually removal from office but it is not the only possible punishment. If a two thirds majority is not reached then there is no punishment and the defendant is acquitted.
Well compared to the Clintons, and the Obamas....he was a Boy Scout.
