Well, Bill Clinton’s done it. He's made history, and become the second US President to be impeached.
He's also probably the second President to whop a cigar up a clacker, what with John F Kennedy having the job and all, but that sort of thing used not be talked about.
I used to think impeachment was being locked inside a giant peach. Like imprisonment, you know. Now I find it's nothing fruity at all.
Instead, they're going to have a trial in the Senate, and then vote along party lines, which means Clinton will get off. Again.
The big problem with impeachment is its so drastic. Like, Al Gore gets promoted. What the US needs to do is allow for some lesser punishment. Here are a few:
- Impotent - where the President is put on heavy doses of libido-reducing drugs
- Imbruglia - where the President is has to be Natalie Imbruglia for the rest of his term
- Impasse - where the President is not allowed to got to the toilet
- Improbable - where the President says he didn't lie, and everyone believes him
- Imaginary - where everyone pretends Bill Clinton never was President
- Impatient - where the President is forced to play Doctors and Nurses with Madeleine Albright.
