Speaking of impeachment.... John Dean, who knows a thing or two about presidential scandals, weighs in on the WMDs that aren't: In the three decades since Watergate, this is the first potential scandal I have seen that could make Watergate pale by comparison.... [This Modern World by Tom Tomorrow]
Sorry, the nation has fallen a long ways since Watergate. A president avoided impeachment for truly serious crimes: sanctioning robberies of his political opponents, using the power of the IRS and the FBI against those opponents, and much more. These days, it's considered a serious lie to dissemble about sex, but not a serious lie to lead a nation into war with forged documents and known untruths.
