The House Judiciary committee initiates the impeachment process, not one person.

In this circumstance republicans (including Gingrich and Hyde) resigned under the umbrella of this scandal, even though they were not accused of crimes. They considered this an ethical responsibility and encouraged Clinton to do the same. Where is the hypocricy?

They didn't lie to us, clinton did. They didn't abuse their authority of office, clinton did. They didn't break their oaths of office, clinton did. They didn't claim to support women's issues while engaging in abusive and defamatory conduct against women, clinton did. They didn't obstruct justice, clinton did.

Both parties acted in an unethical and extremist partisan conduct while performing their duties to consider the impeachment case and both share in the responsibility for the damage that was done to our confidence in government. It was infectious. The guys on this thread were cheering on Larry Flint who was engaging in a witch hunt for profit. Clinton, however, stands alone in responsibility for the decisions he made (even though he tried to place the blame on women ... his mother and grandmother for starters, he tried to paint Lewinski as a psyco stalker until the blue dress turned up).
