Yeah, it was politically motivated
Henry Hyde, Republican Illinois Congressman, goes on the record saying that President Clinton's impeachment might have been retaliation for Nixon's.What a crock!
Yes. It was politically motivated. However, I think it had more to do with Clinton than Nixon. And I think that suggesting otherwise is dishonest and reckless. Politicians have long memories (except for when it comes to their own indiscretions), but 20+ years? I don't buy it. I simply think that the Republicans wanted to hang Clinton with a pair of panties. They had an opportunity, and they seized it. Let's face it...there was plenty of scandal during the Clinton years. They wanted something to stick. But it had nothing to do with Nixon and everything to do with bringing President Clinton low.
What a load of crap.
