i thought he was impeached, not convicted. the charge wasn't "blowjob", it was lying in the Paula whatshername case.
I thought it was denying a sexualy relation with monica lewinsky? that whole definition of what constituted a sexual relation. as far as I know, he didnt get impeached, he nearly got impeached. didnt have enough votes.

conviction comes first, then impeachment right? and even if you are convicted you still might not get impeached.

He was impeached for perjury.

The house authorized his impeachment. The Senate didn't follow through and have him tried.

He was allowed to remain President.

Yea... The good old days. As time continues I actually find myself missing Bill.

Perhaps we should have the SOTU in this thread for those who did not have a chance to see it.

9:45 in was interesting.

Every time I see The Heritage foundation I think Sean Hannity and that gives me chills..lol. I'm definitely right leaning, but there is something about him that makes me feel like I'm listening to a kitten being slaughtered.

Yea. Hannity kinda pisses me off too. The Heritage Foundation has good stuff though. Ever hear Mark Levin?

Hannity is definitely one of my least favorite people on this planet. The fact that his radio show intro is a Tool song makes me want to make him learn to swim.

He comes in with Independence day (Martina McBride) on the radio here. Sometimes it's "eye of the tiger"... the stop Obama express (conservative underground).

I've only listened to him a handful of times and he came on to Tool -Aenima. This was 6 months to a year ago.

To put it mildly... I don't think any president has ever called out the SCOTUS on national television like that before... Serious breach of protocol...

Yeah. You don't fucking call out the SCOTUS like that.

Barry does. I'm not surprised, the guy really hasn't acted like a president in the past. Why should he start now?

from what i can see he started talking about the economy again instead of healthcarehealthcarehealthcare (although he did give it some time)... which is what i was wanting.

Someone needs to be. Leaders (using the term loosely) need to beat some ass sometimes. I hear anger and lecturing from everyone. He also talked about coming together.. I wont hold my breathe.

Okay, but his paddle is whackin' the wrong asses. The fact the Mass flipped the Senate seat is evidence. Does he see it that way? Heck no. Time to hunker down and figure out a way to Rham it through.

How about Iran? How about our borders? How about North Korea? Homeland Security? Trying terrorist in NYC? Come on. He's got a lawyer that represented gitmoers overseeing a high level position in the DOJ.

Rahm gets a bad rap. He's way more centrist than Obama.
