Tesla was a step in the right direction at the time, but it was also the model T of the electric era, and looking a bit long in the tooth as a design now. It's a dumb looking, overpriced car, and when the batteries go you might as well junk it because the replacement will run into 5 figures. That's...

The Monica Lewinsky thing would have been of little or no consequence if he hadn't lied about it while under oath - an action that resulted in a major fine, the suspension of his law license for five years, and may have gotten him disbarred by the US Supreme Court if he hadn't surrendered his law l...

Clinton was impeached for committing perjury not for fooling around on his wife.
