What was the whole Paula Jones thing about? Some type of harrasment?

I wanted to reference it in one of my answers and had a poor time doing it. My understanding about it is pretty vague now, I was 10 when it was all over the news.

    Paula Jones sued sitting President William J. Clinton for sexual harrassment. He denied it and refused to settle with Jones on the manner. In order to prove her case that he had a past history of this she was going to use the Monica Lewinsky scandal as evidence. Clinton lied under oath to a grand jury pertaining to Lewinsky and for that he was latter impeached by the House, and the Senate failed to convict. He latter settled with Paula Jones for 750.000 dollars.

    Bill Clinton as Arkansas governor used state employees (police officers) to solicit women of his choice for sexual advances. Paula Jones was one of those women Clinton preyed on. Clinton hushed the whole thing up by paying off Jones with a settlement before it could go to court.

    Paula said Bill asked her for a knob job. The Republicans supported her financially, gave her a Mercedes, and a nose job. This to keep suit going. They only dropped her when she appeared as a center fold in one of the men's mags. This was a part of Ken star's 8 year quest to pin something on the Clinton's.

    Bill Clinton was accused of Groping / Attempted Rape/Holding her against against her will.

    Hillary handled that Bimbo Eruption #36 and it was settled out of court for (rumored to be) $750,000 so that was an expensive squeeze!
