Impeachment said to be Nixon retaliation |
When asked if he would go through with the Clinton impeachment process
again, Hyde said he wasn't sure.
It turned into a personal and political embarrassment for Hyde when an
extra-marital affair he had in the 1960's became public amid
accusations of hypocrisy.
He called the affair a youthful indiscretion.
The veteran DuPage County congressman acknowledged that Republicans
went after Clinton in part to enact revenge against the Democrats for
impeaching President Richard Nixon 25 years earlier.
Hyde's comments reflect what Democrats have been saying for years
about the Clinton impeachment.
It will be interesting to see what happens when Hyde's comments hit
the national media.

That and their hatred of him for being so damn smart and popular too
and beating poppy Bush.

Good riddance.
