The argument about impeachment

GOP Laughs At Impeachment

WE'RE LETTING BOEHNER GET AWAY WITH MAKING REPUBLICANS LOOK LIKE THE SANE ONES

Defining What is Legal

For Democratic bloggers it's all about the politics of the thing.

O is clearly not seeing that the laws are faithfully executed, in the matter of the Obamacare deadlines but especially in the matter of illegals.

And the Democratic focus on the politics of impeachment is as near as we will ever get to a concession that such behavior, for which they applaud O, is indeed the significant constitutional crime the conservatives insist it is.

Clinton was only a perjurer about a private matter and he should have resigned in shame both for the perjury and for his whole frat-boy sex life in the White House and, before that, in the governor's mansion in Arkansas.

Nixon was merely foolish in covering up a stupid and quite unnecessary campaign stunt and he did, ultimately, resign.

This is actually rather more serious, constitutionally.

But the GOP will probably not even try to impeach O and, anyway, he would certainly not resign.

Update, later that same day.
