Hero's right, Richard Nixon was never impeached, he resigned before he could be.

Some people just don't have the balls to stand and take their punishment like a man you see.



More insane ramblings by the people who brought you beeeer milkshakes!
No one can see their reflection in running water. It is only in still water that we can see.

Some folk see it that way. Other folk understand the words "for the good of the country". Nixon understood it, so did Ford who pardoned Nixon for the same reason...Clinton missed that day at school.

We can tell you're a lawyer.

"Well you see the reason my client hasn't turned up for trial and has left the country is for the good of the country."

I refer back to my earlier comment about Lawyers and ethics...

"I thoroughly disapprove of duels. If a man should challenge me, I would take him kindly and forgivingly by the hand and lead him to a quiet place and kill him."

Actually Hero might have a point. Nixon wasn't president anymore, and that must have been in the best interests of America, now if only George Bush would start to think about the best interests of the US and indeed the world...
