Well... Article III of the Clinton impeachment says "William Jefferson Clinton [...] has prevented, obstructed, and impeded the administration of justice, and has to that end engaged personally, and through his subordinates and agents, in a course of conduct or scheme designed to delay, impede, cover up, and conceal the existence of evidence and testimony related to a Federal civil rights action brought against him"

So well, obstruction was a part of what Gingrich voted for.
