Technically he wasn't impeached, and the obstruction charge didn't even make it out of the House. Don't get me wrong. I think the guy is sleeze. He undermined his ability to get done what he wished to achieve, but I just don't think the whole thing was really on the level of high crimes and misdemeanors like the other incidents I cited by some of the preceding presidents which effected the working of the government. Just wonder what other Presidents would say under oath if millions of dollars were spent trying to find something or anything on a person, when and if some of these other presidents infidelities were hung out to see. As Kissinger said, power is the ultimate aphrodisiac and many in power abuse that power regardless of morality. Anyway, back to taxes. Whatever one thinks of Gore, Lieberman was a good choice to counteract these morality themes that don't really address the issues, especially since in my opinion his many politicians are corrupted by power and the fund driven nature of the system. z
