Was Bill Clinton impeached?

Actually he was impeached but that is only the first of two processes. At first I thought he wasn't but I was astounded to learn that I was ignorant of the total process of removal. I thought he was just being censored. Gladly this petty ploy by his opponents in congress just went to show how childish people can be since this provided a perfect smokescreen for his opponents to spin their nauseous propaganda and generally spin everything out of control. I can't believe there are so many vindictive and petty personality types out of there that actually thought it was legal to try to impeach a president on charges of perjury for actions done in his personal life which had no relations to his job. Actually this should be thrown out and dismissed since this should have been a civil trial since his promiscuousness had no direct correlation with the duties that he performed in office.

This was a total smokescreen and a great embarrassment upon the entire face of the American legal system.
Yes he liked to cheat on his wife: can you blame him?
No this was not related to his performance of the office of president and any allegations of cheating on his wife are not lawful charges for impeachment.

So I officially exonerate slick Willy due to the fact that congress did not have any legal grounds to accuse the president of civil abuses with his spouse since such allegations in no way were related with his job as president. It was really shameful of the Republicans and this was the main reason that I have no respect for them and Bush's presidency just but the cork on the bottle.

I have since it was undue process of law.
Yes he was a bad boy but it is also true that
there was no legal grounds to impeach him based upon his job duties.
I hope you know where I am coming from here on a legal aspect.
Only Hillary was the only one to impeach him for actions in his personal life.

I'm sure historians everywhere have taken due notice of your official exoneration. Nevertheless, the history books haven't changed. The only thing that has changed is that Democrat synchophants have ceased trying to "get justice for Clinton" on this event. Now, they just hope we all gradually forget about it completely.

An impeachment isn't a "political ploy". You'd have a hard time explaining how it could be so, given the dynamics of the process. But, by your own admission, you were clueless about the nature of impeachment. So it's reasonable to assume you are clueless on other aspects as well. Especially reasonable the more I continued to explore your "answer".

Clinton was impeached for impeachable offenses. He wasn't impeached for "fooling around." Please leave your editorializing and your petty partisanship out of the issue, and JUST ANSWER THE QUESTION. I don't need to be told what opinions to have on Clinton. I'll make that decision for myself.

@Jonathan: Impressive and impassioned defense directed at an answer given over 3 years ago by a person answering someone else's question, not yours. Just saying.
