12. "The case for impeachment is a slam dunk and we all know that."
This is possibly the most ludicrous statement I've ever read on DU.

"The case for impeachment is a slam dunk and we all know that."

Yes, the president lied us into war. Yes, his administration committed TREASON in outing an undercover CIA agent. But this is the real world, not some fantasy candy land.

As you have repeatedly proven yourself to have no understanding whatsoever of the United States Constitution, let me spell it out in terms even you can understand: after the House impeaches, it requires TWO-THIRDS of the Senate to convict and remove from office.

THIS WILL NEVER HAPPEN.

You could have videotape of George W. Bush giving Osama bin Laden the fucking nuclear launch codes, and 90% of Senate Republicans would still vote to acquit. Does this make them sick, degenerate, immoral rat bastards; far more "America-hating" than they accuse us of being? Yes, it does. But that's the real world.

The American people will then be suckered by the corporate media and the RW talking heads into believing that the Democrats only impeached for revenge, and we will lose the 2008 presidential election to McCain or Romney or who the fuck ever. Is this what you want?

There IS a case for impeachment. But it will never happen. Perhaps you deserve ten million dollars just for being you. But you know what? No matter how much you say it, it's not gonna happen. So why waste your breath?

Get out there and work for REAL change. It'll probably be more effective than posting incoherent exclamations on an echo-chamber website with your caps lock key stuck.
