Yesterday In History

So yesterday was the 6th anniversary of a rather important day in United States History. President Clinton was acquitted of all charges of impeachment by the United States Senate. For me this was one of the darker moments in this country's history. Although my friend(who is a democrat BTW) Kate would disagree Clinton's lies before a Grand Jury were not an impeachable offense. Republicans had been after Clinton for years and they decided that what he had lied about was wrong not that he had actually lied. Was the fact that lied wrong. Yes he should not have done that but if Clinton had say lied to Congress about military spending or selling Arms to the Contras(Like our illustrious 40th President) No Clinton picked the wrong topic to lie about. He lied about sex. Never mind that half of the GOP leadership were having their own affairs. This once again proved Republican hypocrisies. They will talk about morals and what not but they will act the complete opposite. Why is this such an important event because once again proved that the GOP is willing to subvert/manipulate the Constitution(our most sacred text) for moral purposes. Just take a look at the attempts to ban Gay Marriage. Only once before has the Constitution been amended for moral purposes and it was complete failure.
