Reply #3: How can we ignore our REQUIREMENT to impeach scoundrels like Smirk? [View All]

[Rageneau]

Like the GOP told us again and again, it is not our CHOICE whether to impeach the president, it is our DUTY. to We owe it to the Constitution. So it doesn't matter how long Bush and Cheney have left to serve -- the law is the law. Besides, how long did it take the Repukes to bring impeachment charges against Clinton -- two months? In that sense, there's plenty of time left.

Another reason we MUST impeach Bush is to take away the repukes' future ability to unfairly criticize Clinton and the Democrats by tying the impeachment albatross around their necks. We owe it to history to show that, at this period of time, impeach the president was a political, not a moral, decision (even though ours would be a heck of a lot more 'morally based' than theirs.)

Therefore, if we don't impeachent Bush for the RIGHT reasons (because he deserves it) we should at least be savvy enough to impeach him for the same reason the repukes tried to impeach OUR president -- pure political manuvering. That way, when future Americans look back upon this time, Clinton's impeachment will be shown to have as much legitimacy as one of Bush's Medal of Freedom awards.
