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.

well, let's see - he broke the law, he broke his oath of office, he ignored his Constitutional responsibilities and limitations and committed 'high crimes' by any definition. Oddly enough, he never came close to committing as many crimes as our present President and Vice-President. Still, he wasn't impeached, so I guess the GOP figured he wasn't guilty, so they could do all that he did and more. But that's beside the point, I guess. So much for "Rule of Law".
