I always knew that Johnson and Clinton were the only presidents ever impeached. We can not blame the students for lack of knowledge about history (or atleast more recent history like Nixon). Have anyone of you read a high school history book lately? They are terrible. I never knew why Johnsons was impeached. Thats one thing I tried to get out of my high school history book and failed (it only briefly mentioned that he was even impeached) This is all part of people wanting to decieve themselves into thinking none of this has happened before (Clinton, Bush) Thank you Mojo.

He finally beat death in a best 34 out of 67 match. At that time he could ask for any one thing and he could wish for the hope of all mankind... he looked death right in the eye and said ... "I would like about three fiddy"
