No a Senate tries an impeachment that is voted on in the house, and in the case of Clinton the impeachment failed Feb 12 1999 in the senate.

Again, I never said once that he was not impeached, I said the impeachment failed, which it did.

Yes, you can have an indictment with no evidence whatsoever, just takes a popular vote in the case of an impeachment.
And Indictment has to go through the courts to succeed, and in an impeachments case, it has to be tried in the senate, where it failed on Feb 12 1999
A shame really, I suspect we would have been spared 8 years of one of the worst presidents in American history had it succeeded.
How would Clinton's impeachment have spared us Obama?

Not very expensive you say? You wanna hand over the same amount, in cash, to me? It won't be very useful, you know it would be partisan. Not enough "partisan" in the Senate to convict. Why bother? It won't be useful at all.
That is why impeachment doesn’t happen all the time, usually a House is a tad more mature than that to waste our time and money that way on something that has no chance of succeeding.

It was a total waste of time and money.

Granted we would likely be a lot better off today had the impeachment succeeded.

But hindsight is 20-20

Like I said, the Senate DOES NOT vote on impeachment.

Where did you get the idea that "an indictment has to go through the courts to succeed?" A grand jury votes to indict. Period. The defendant is indicted. Whether it goes to trial or what happens at trial has NOTHING TO DO WITH THE INDICTMENT.

U.N. ADS PROMOTE KILLING OFF THE ELDERLY.
Hey all you wrinkly, middle-aged has-beens: Are you ready to move over and let the next generation have your spot on the planet? After all, you’ve lived a good life. And your aging body is going to cost taxpayers a lot more than the salt you think you are worth. In other words, your return-on-investment isn’t looking so good to the United Nations.
In case you haven’t heard, our brains are being conditioned to look upon you as the burden you are. And it’s time you see yourself that way too:
That’s right. The UN is promoting we EUTHANIZE our aging parents. If that ad didn’t send chills up your spine, the next one will. These commercials are pointing us to Agenda 21, a global strategy to reduce the population in the years ahead. Yes, it sounds like something out of a zombie movie, but it’s been going on now for several years as we’ve been reporting.
Disguised as environmental stewardship, Agenda 21 is nothing more than repackaged Socialism, and many heavy-hitters with billions of dollars and a worldwide influence are behind it.

LOL

so you think the impeachment was a total success, it stated in the articles of impeachment to remove the president from office... did that happen? Did a single thing the impeachment stated succeed?

Nope….. not a single thing.

A total waste of time and money

If you call that a success, then I congratulate you on the success of Mit Romney’s bid for the presidency, You should be proud and happy that it was such a resounding success.

No wonder you guys keep losing, you don’t know what success or failure even is.

Bobby Jindal says to Republicans:

Dumbed-Down Conservatism Must Go,'Stop being the stupid party' and playing with your supporters lives.

We cannot be, we must not be, the party that simply protects the rich so they get to keep their toys.

I didn't vote for Romney! Ew!!!!!!!!!

"Wherefore, William Jefferson Clinton, by such conduct, warrants impeachment and trial, and removal from office and disqualification to hold and enjoy any office of honor, trust or profit under the United States."

Yes. He was impeached. He was acquitted at trial. He was not removed from office and he was not disqualified to hold another office.

How can a President be impeached if the impeachment fails?

I agree, passed the house on partisan lines, and failed in the Senate on partisan lines that could have been predicted long before it even started. We knew the result of both votes before they were taken.

He was impeached by the house, I never said otherwise, and then that impeachment failed in the senate.

like any criminal charge that goes to a trial, the prosecutors decide to press charges ( the impeachment ) it goes to trial ( the senate ) and there the outcome is decided, succeed or fail.

Daily Horoscope for May 21

Cancer

Take care because it's a rather downbeat day. You feel as though you have the cares of the world on your shoulders, and maybe you have. You've certainly got to cope with a lot of responsibility and duty, and there could also be delays and disappointments that need to be negotiated. Yes, it's a fairly miserable day but try to rise above it, otherwise you'll soon start to feel really wretched and sorry for yourself.
