Let us not make that mistake ever again. Bush, Cheney and Co. should have been kicked out of office and locked up.

Hearings are not enough. honest.abe Apr 2019 #9
What do you think impeachment is? TwilightZone Apr 2019 #14
Exactly ... so what is your point. You seem to KPN Apr 2019 #20
Hearings on steroids. honest.abe Apr 2019 #27
Impeachment is hearings where people go to jail if they lie to Congress. uponit7771 Apr 2019 #51
You keep making this claim, but it's false. TwilightZone Apr 2019 #65

It should be a straightforward decision. procon Apr 2019 #13
Well, there's another pesky word in the very same sentence: Conviction. TwilightZone Apr 2019 #15
Thank goodness the great majority of Democrats aren't scared to impeach out of fear of no conviction mtnsnake Apr 2019 #16
There's little evidence that impeachment will produce "a ton of good" anymore than... TwilightZone Apr 2019 #17
Conviction might be unlikely...today...but the fact that you are so adamant mtnsnake Apr 2019 #23
"great majority" TwilightZone Apr 2019 #18
Yes the great majority. Even after the midterms it was 77%. mtnsnake Apr 2019 #26
Conviction isn't required or guaranteed. procon Apr 2019 #43
