      Why would there need to be?

      Republicans were just fishing for any excuse to stop the clintons from forming a cohesive universal health care plan and in general just obstruct the government because Democrats had power. They would have found something. They had already latched onto a 43,000 loss The clintons made on a land deal as if it was proof of high crimes and misdemeanors.

      If they knew about the blowjob they would have gone right for it. Instead it was something that popped up during cross-examination when they were investigating the whitewater scandal during the government shutdown they had caused and managed to catch Clinton in a lie . They realized there actually was someone else in the oval office with him even though he said that he was alone.

      That’s why the whole conversation about what the word “is” is even happened.

        I know it’s seems hard to belive during the Guardians of Pedophiles days, but there was a time when just raising your voice, or misspelling a word was enough to end your political career.
