My view is that Clinton's impeachment and trial are not in keeping with the principles of the Constitution. My reason for believing this is that the Constitution spells it out clearly: "high crimes and misdemeanors." IMHO, lying about sex and trying to cover up a sexual affair unrelated to the governance of the nation are not "high crimes and misdemeanors."

...in response to brees, who wrote: Are you saying that people who want to see this country governed by the principles of its constitution should have no motives that are political?

You say the Republicans who are trying to remove Clinton are motivated by high-minded concern for Constitutional principles. I say they are motivated by political ambition, hate, and spite.

You and I are never going to agree on this (unless you change your mind), but the American voters will choose. It will be an interesting election in November 2000.
