→Nixon?
: Dinsdale, Nixon was never impeached and never committed perjury. The media tried and convicted him, and bullied him into resigning. Clinton did commit perjury and was impeached, yet stayed in office.--[[User:Aschlafly|Aschlafly]] 20:52, 31 July 2008 (EDT)

::Congress passed three articles of impeachment against Nixon, and he resigned before the actual proceedings began. While that may mean that he technically didn't go through the full impeachment process as Clinton did, it's misleading to imply that Nixon resigned from media pressure and not because the impeachment against him was approved. --[[User:DinsdaleP|DinsdaleP]] 08:18, 1 August 2008 (EDT)
