81. What way to hurt our Constitution (that's what you're talking about) than to hand
Edited on Mon Oct-01-07 07:09 PM by indie_ana_500
over the government to the same party that has done the damage. The takeover would become complete with another 4 or 8 years.

Analogy: Your child is hit by a hit and run driver. She lays injured in the street. The driver is getting away.

Dilemma: Do you leave your injured child and run after the driver, so that there is accountability and justice? Or do you let him get away so that you can try to save your daughter? And then hopefully get some semblance of justice and accountability, after she is safe?

I choose the second option. I think our country is in that much danger. Yes, I think the harm done by * and his cohorts was unconstitutional and criminal. But he is still President. He holds the cards. The Dems don't have a strong majority in either house. There is almost no chance of prevailing. And there is the inevitability that issues crucial to the country will go unattended to because of the time wasted on impeachment.
