If you think Bill Clinton should be impeached for cheating on his wife, then I am truly speachless

I agree that if this were only about sex that it would not be an impeachable offense. It would truly be a personal matter. There's no requirement that the President be a moral man. No one is without some kind of sin (I hesitate to use this word because of unintended religious conotations but I can't think of a better one).

No, I think he should be impeached for the felony of perjury committed for the purpose of avoiding personal liability in a civil rights (sexual harassment) lawsuit against him in a Federal Court. I just think it's two-faced for a Women's Rights organization to support someone who so disrespects his wife that he has affairs-o-plenty, just because they agree with his politics. He's already admitted to cheating on his wife with three different women and allegedly with others. That seems to me to show that he thinks of women only as objects to use for sexual gratification. This is NOW's hero?

<No matter how offensive the president's behavior was, it does not rise to the level of an impeachable offense. And, the no-holds-barred attack by the ultra-conservatives on women's issues is a far more onerous threat to women and our families. It is time to bring the House Judiciary Committee's sideshow to a close, and for Congress to focus on important issues like improving Social Security and Medicare, passing equal pay initiatives, strengthening public education and funding anti-violence-against-women programs.. ...>

Figures how NOW wants to quickly divert attention away from Clinton's actions. Notice how the 2nd sentence in that news release focuses on those mean-ole-nasty "ultra-conservatives," as if their "attack on women's issues" have anything to do with impeachment.

Seems that NOW is still busy wiping the egg from their face. At least they can currently ride on the soaring popularity of President Pinnochio.
