Remember after 9/11 the right started claiming that Clinton should have had the same emphasis on fighting terrorism as Bush did after 9/11? (yeah, AFTER 3,000 people were killed) Well Newt was the Speaker of the House back then, why hasn't anybody asked him why if fighting terrorism was so damn important back then then why was his top priority impeaching President Clinton? Also why did the Republicans totally oppose all efforts Clinton made to fight terrorism? Clinton got zero support from the Republicans while Bush got 100% support from both parties, and he wasn't being impeached either
I'm thinking that the OP doesn't know what Clinton was being impeached for and that not many Democrat Congress critters were in favor of what he did in Iraq. Oh yes, many of them like Hillary and Carry talked tough but they only did so because they knew there was a chance that there were WMD available and they were playing the political game.
I can't wait to see Newt get high enough in the polls for THEM to start bringing up his relations with his wife. That has been one of their favorite topics for years and they don't know that he had to leave the House because of what he did.
...and you are scared to0 death that one of them can/will kick you god's a$$...
You are supporting a corrupt loser who has no chance of being reelected...!

you forget that it is the presidents responsibility to order the military into action, and NOT congress. the president also controls the intelligence community as well, again NOT congress.

It doesn't matter why he was impeached, all that matters is that he was. If the Democrats had ever impeached Bush after 9/11 the cons would have screamed bloody murder

No I did not forget nor did I ever say it was Congress's responsibility. Congress does have a say in the matter however, just ask Clinton about Somalia (The Republican Congress cut off the funding) and Clinton was using the intelligence community, as much as he could anyway

1. to th solamia issue...NEITHER congress cut funding (and it was a DEMOCRAT controlled congress at the time (1992) it became a UN issue from 1992 to 1995
2. clinton FAILED the terrorism issue...he thought santions (oil for food) and bombing would sove the issue...it didnt and half a million iraq CHILDREN DIED under clinton santions
3 clinton was impeached not because of monica, but because he is a SEXUAL HARRASSER and sexual ASSAULTER of paula jones..the "lie" that got him was about monica, but part of the sexual assault case of jones, which he paid a big amount of money to shut her up
