Changes

Some thought it a [[war crime]] when Nixon expanded the war into Cambodia, and an Article of Impeachment was formulated based on this. Nixon allegedly responded, "the president can bomb whoever he wishes".<ref>"They can't impeach me for bombing Cambodia. The president can bomb anybody he likes." Quote attributed to [[Oliver Stone]], but not found in the Nixon tapes or anywhere else in the extensive record.</ref> In the ensuing legal arguments the law came down on Nixon's side and the impeachment Article was defeated. The [[War Powers Act]] and two standing Congressional Intelligence Committees were born out of these legal and constitutional debates. The impeachment committee settled on lesser charges based on a third-rate burglarly to pursue their pettiness and vindictiveness. Make no mistake, Hillary's involvement with the committee, and using it to promote her own career, was a big factor in bringing an impeachment inquiry against the Clinton's for their involvement in the [[Whitewater|Whitewater land deal]]. But legal and constitutional questions over impeacheability for the Clinton's activities ''prior'' to taking office caused the committee to settle on lesser charges based on sex in the [[Oval Office]].
