The Impeachment of William Jefferson Clinton is a work of "future history." It shows how Clinton could be impeached within months. You'll learn how Congressional investigators could adopt 7 articles of impeachment against Clinton with known evidence, already on the real-life record; which of the many Clinton scandals pose a very real threat to his presidency; what specific crimes the 7 articles of impeachment will detail; how serious a threat to our Consitution Clinton really is; which 13 Democratic senators could join Republicans and vote to convict Bill Clinton; and how Clinton can be brought up on RICO charges - and found guilty of racketeering.
Bob Tyrrell, editor-in-chief of The American Spectator magazine, has long been a critic of Slick Willie and his Administration. He is quick to point out that the moniker came not from Washington but from the voters of Arkansas where Clinton was Governor. His magazine reported on Clinton's activities in Arkansas earlier than probably anyone than Rush Limbaugh and broke the story of Paula Jones and Troopergate. His chronicles of everything from the RTC obstruction of justice in Kansas City to the funny money flowing to President Clinton to the bimbo eruptions led him to write a fictional "docu-drama" of what it would be like if Clinton were subjected to the impeachment process (which he eventually was). It is a fascinating read with mock headlines alongside true documentation and true-to-life character portraits in the Congress; he soundly made the case that impeachment was a distinct possibility, months before it actually was. He and his anonymous co-author were more prescient than they knew.
This is not a historical book--it was written before the fact, with an eye to what might be said and done if there were an impeachment. I bought it for my roommate for Christmas, and read it also myself.
