For Christ's sake, they impeached Clinton over a BLOW JOB
I want impeachment. No, it doesn't have to happen right away. No, Pelosi doesn't have to outright SAY it just yet. But sometime next year...3 months from now...6 months from now...I'm even willing to wait a year from now...

THIS PRESIDENT AND VICE PRESIDENT MUST BE IMPEACHED. They have broken hundreds of laws and they have admitted it in some cases. (Spying, for example).

Anybody here who says these criminals should not be impeached, FOR WHATEVER REASON, should pack up and get the fuck outa here. There is no partisan bullshit here. They broke the law. PERIOD. Impeach. And if you think it won't be successful, I don't GIVE A FUCK. Impeach. The pukes knew they weren't gonna be successful in convicting Clinton, but they went ahead with impeachment anyway. IMPEACH. Don't say it shouldn't be a fucking priority. IMPEACH. Don't say it'll look bad. IMPEACH. Don't give me goddamn excuses. IMPEACH.

IMPEACH IMPEACH IMPEACH. We have the power now.

IMPEACH.

1. I still don't think it will happen. Looking ahead to '08 the DNC might
worry about tipping people towards a GOP prez candidate out of sympathy to an impeachment.

3. Kinda like it tipped to Al Gore?
This isn't about sympathy. This is about the law. And where was all the sympathy for Al Gore over the Clinton impeachment? That's bullshit, if you ask me.

6. It wasn't done to actually win.
It wasn't done to actually win.

It was done to immunize the next president (whom they were sure
would be a Republican) from ever facing impeachment.

Don't bother impeaching Bush.

1. Investigate him to death.

2. Obtain indictments against the lot of them.

3. Turn the alleged criminals over to criminal courts.

8. And Clinton's approval shot up to almost 70%.
And he was acquitted.

And the Republicans lost seats.

11. Hear HEAR, sir.

Instead, let there be a large man holding a sign saying "WAR CRIMES" behind a Democratic Senator standing OVER Bimbleboy and Co WHILE THEY ARE STILL IN OFFICE, said Senator holding a large stack of bills going through them one by one with a bipartisan twinkle in his eye.

If this is to be a choice between justice and CHANGE, I would choose CHANGE. Impeachment casts Bimble as the underdog. THIS MUST NOT HAPPEN.

9. But that's the only bad thing Clinton was doing!
They didn't have anything else to investigate (though they sure tried). With George, you can't put your foot down without stepping into a new horrific scandal. Getting rid of him isn't nearly as important as finding out WTF he did.

Crap!. Why is he on my screen again?????

13. A freaking newb telling me what to think?
How did that Impeachment trial work out for the GOOPers?

Seems to me their leadership was decimated and they lost Congressional seats in a midterm election in an opposing party's President's 2nd term for the first time in the history.

I want investigations.

Impeachment trials are show politics.

Congressional investigations nail people to the wall.
