34. BAM!!! I was looking for some text to back up that argument
thanks :hi:

also found this:

Amid worldwide devastation, the hapless president tries to negotiate with a captured alien.

"What is it you want us to do?" the president asks.

"Die," the alien replies.

The national Republican Party -- now dominated by some of the most extreme elements in U.S. politics -- has made clear it wants President Clinton's political death, nothing less.

_snip_

Some conservatives maintained that the real case against Clinton rested in what had not been included in the impeachment articles. Some likened impeaching Clinton over sex lies to convicting Al Capone on tax evasion, when cases could not be proved about more serious felonies.

DeLay urged senators to examine evidence in the House files which had not been publicly released -- apparently pertaining to disputed allegations that Clinton made an unwanted advance toward a woman in the 1970s. The House whip said the secret evidence would persuade the Senate to proceed to a full trial and conviction.

But the GOP's slide into this Kafka-esque land -- where punishment is handed out less for the charge at issue than for secret allegations -- finally jarred millions of Americans awake.
