My point is that Clinton should never have been asked many of the questions he was asked. They were an impertinence. And he certainly shouldn't have answered them.

He should, in my view, just have refused to answer.

There are spheres of our lives that are private to each of us, and the fact that Clinton was elected doesn't change that.


Sorry, but he was already being investigated for sexual harassment, among other things.....
The History Place - Impeachment: Bill Clinton
Quote:
Paula Jones/President Bill Clinton

Staying in the realm of the government, President Clinton himself came under fire for alleged sexual harassment. Paula Jones was a state employee when Clinton was Governor of Arkansas. In 1991, she claimed that Clinton exposed himself and asked her for oral sex in a hotel room. Clinton denied all allegations.

After several rounds of filing, Jones's lawsuit was dismissed for failing to state a claim. During the appeals process, a settlement was reached. Jones dropped her suit against Clinton in exchange for $850,000. However, she never received an admission of guilt or an apology.

Jones's allegations paved the way for investigating the President's sex life. The Monica Lewinsky scandal and the impeachment of President Clinton were big follow-ups to the Paula Jones case.
