3. Impeachment has to come in its own course
Remember Nixon. To many citizens, it was clear that Watergate was impeachable before he was re-elected, but it took much longer than that to convince Congress and the majority of the citizenry.

If impeachment is called for too soon, it will embolden *'s base, just to spite those of us who cherich the constitution and civil liberties (to say nothing of democracy).

Let him twist in the wind awhile. We need to get this one right.

Remember that a lot of people don't get the nuance of doing what is legal vs. doing whatever Bush wants.
