Lying about sex shouldn't be an impeachable offense, imo. In fact, it shouldn't be an offense at all- unless you are on trial for sex with a minor or raping someone. Sex isn't something the government should be looking in to, imo. It's like stringing someone up for lying about their farts, or the fact that they eat bran muffins. It's stupid. I think the more of us that treat that sort of "crime" with disdain, the closer we get to the equivalent of jury nullification, as a society, for such "crimes".

I'm not for the government making up stupid crimes. And making things that aren't a crime, a crime, by saying someone lied about them, doesn't impress me very much.
