85. Hmmm, I'm trying to recall Clinton's impeachment...
and there's no comparison, imo. He was being impeached for lying under oath about adultery, basically, and during the whole thing every single rock they could overturn was, the press replayed every negative or suspicious thing anyone ever thought about the man. They demonized him with such a broad brush voters on the other side can't even recall the stability of those times or consider him without a visceral reaction of outrage. I'd love for every lie this administration has perpetrated to be reported on widely, over and over, day after day. I do not see the same rallying behind the man I saw from our side for Clinton. This guy lies and people lose their rights and die. Unlike Clinton, the implications of his deceptions are positively stunning in their negative impact on us, our worldwide reputation and our safety. He has to be called to task and if this censure is only about the NSA spying, I feel confident there are other actions for which impeachment could become a possibility. I don't expect the censure resolution to pass - I must repeat that - I want him to painted with that same loathesome brush during the process. That's sufficient to weaken the party's cheerleaders come election time in '06 and '08. IMHO. :)
