...will take more than a soccer victory to break Khamenei's grip: The conservative-dominated legislature chose the day of the match to impeach the liberal interior minister Abdullah Nouri for allowing a demonstration against the conservative stranglehold. Khatami fired back by appointing Nouri as deputy president. The president's 70 percent majority in last year's election confirmed his overwhelming popular support, but conservatives still dominate the country's political and judicial institutions. So the battle for the soul of Iran is still in its first period, and the mullahs aren't exactly shy with the red card...

Even without Lewinsky's direct testimony, the lawyer says, Congress will have strong circumstantial evidence that suggests Clinton oversaw Lewinsky's job search and tried to coach the testimony of a potential witness, his secretary, Betty Currie.

The Board voted to accept abstentions as neither a "yes" or "no" vote, a recusal...
Campbell's flagrant lack of judgement in handling the election was somewhat of a last straw. What set the impeachment process rolling was his unfounded and utterly personal defilement of my co-chair Alena J. Williams '98, a Crimson editor, when she attempted to point out his failure to delegate a payment for our recent Moonraker ball, an action jeopardizing the association's fiscal security and our reputation. His assault was so brash and abusive that five Board members threatened resignation if the motion to impeach was not achieved...
