"It depends on what the definition of 'it' is."
I know an affair is a weird thing to bring a president down for (seriously America?), but the above quote (which is the first thing that shows up on Google autosearch when you type "it depends on") is trying hard. As someone who has dodged her share of questions before, Bill Clinton might as well have chewed it over with Twix.
Pendantic, but it was "is is," not "it is."
The affair was just ammunition not the motivation behind the impeachment. Newt Gingrich was the one who spearheaded it, and while this was all happening, left his wife (sick with cancer) to pursue a relationship with someone he'd been having an affair with. He even had her served with papers at the hospital while she was receiving chemo treatments. He also left her penniless.
As an asexual, I read things like this and think to myself "my god, why are we the underappreciated ones?"
