Question:

What is true of Richard Nixon during the Watergate crisis?

A) The U.S. Senate impeached him.
B) He was found guilty by the Senate and forced to resign.
C) He appealed his impeachment to the Supreme Court.
D) He resigned before impeachment by the House.


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: The answer is D with an asterisk - he resigned before impeachment, but the House went ahead and passed the bill of impeachment anyway.
Then, after the notorious criminal skipped town one step ahead of an impeachment jury, he was pardoned by a drunken numbskull and thus avoided the prison sentence he deserved.
