70. Welcome To DU BigRed!
Not sure I can agree with you 100% on all of this, but that's irrelevant to me. What I respect is your ability to debate intellectually and within context, without resorting to lesser tactics. I think you are handling yourself very well within this topic and that's especially true given your newcomer status and the challenges that creates when first participating in this forum.

I find your style of debate/intellect refreshing and look forward to seeing where you stand on other issues. As far as this impeachment topic goes though, I'm in agreement that doing it for sake of 'making a point' is a bit futile and probably political suicide. What I'm not sure I agree with you on is the seeming premise that this administration had not done enough things to warrant it or to enrage the public enough to gain their support. After all the things I've learned here and all the things I've seen, it is clear to me that this administration has done more than enough to warrant it and has done many things that would enrage the public if they knew the truth of. Unfortunately between the schlock of a media we have and the short attention span of the average viewer, these things have not seen the light of day as they should have. And god only knows how much else there is that we do not yet know.

So on that note, we probably don't see eye to eye but I may also be misreading you. I'm not sure if you know of all these things they've committed and just find them to not be as much cause for outrage as some of us do, or if you have not yet been exposed to the plethora of outrages this administration has committed. If the latter, then you are in for quite a ride with what you can learn here. If the former, then we'll agree to disagree.

But back to focus of my reply, welcome to DU!
