9. That's why I think IMPEACHMENT is vital this time.

A terrible precedent was set with Bill Clinton's impeachment - for lying about a blow job.

If a President can get impeached for lying about a blowjob, then the bar for impeachment is thus set ridiculously low. If that's true (and it IS) - and the next guy who comes along and lies (like the rest of us breathe) about EVERYTHING, on average once per sentence, cheats, schemes, behaves with no impulse control, is up to the Statue of Liberty's neck in scandals and corruption and crime - and is allowed to skate away, THEN WHAT THE HELL IS IMPEACHMENT EVEN FOR???
