Reply #70: Your 'key' phrase had already been well disputed by others

[whopis01]

Your assumption that the impeachment process will end in a failure to remove Bush from office is just that, an assumption.

No matter how many times you claim that it will fail, it is still just an assumption.

To say "if you don't KNOW you can get the votes by the time the process comes to the end, you lose" is false. You lose the impeachment process if you don't HAVE the votes by the time the process comes to an end.

Worrying about whether or not Bush looks stronger or looks weaker, or worrying about whether or not every action you take will meet with guaranteed success is not how a government should be run.

Here is another assumption: If Bush is impeached, but the Republican minority in the Senate manage to prevent him from being removed from office, those Republicans will be shown to be going against the will of the people and their will come out of the process weaker than before.

Is that a fact? No, like your statements, it is an assumption. It is just an example of how an impeachment that fails to remove Bush from office can still be beneficial to the nation.

By the way, if you don't want to be criticized on certain points you make in the posting that you deem to not be the "key phrase", I would suggest that you leave them out of future postings.
