GOP Forces Cheney Impeachment Debate

[mburbank]

I disagree strongly.

I think Cheney has done phenomenal damage to the office of the presidency, the constitution, the rule of law and the country.

Perhaps a doomed impeachment debate is the wrong forum, but if Cheney is allowed to slide unchecked into what is sure to be a relatively soon demise (He has already outlived anyone who'd had five heart attacks in my father's 40 year medical practice) truly vile precedent is set.

It's my feeling that Cheney, like vampires, certain series of burrowing soft grub and Newt Ginrich, could never survive the light of day. To my mind, it is to the D's great shame, lack of spine, and desire to do the same thing once they are in power (should that happen) that they are unwilling to shine that light.

That the 'great liberal threat' Pelosi has taken all impeachment talk 'off the table' makes me sick to my stomach and is symptomatic of why for the first time in my adult life I am no longer a Democrat.

Max, why do so many Republicans agree with you, wanting to see that bill debated on the floor?

If I'm a Republican, I take that debate. It's a debate Democrats can't win. I'd rather take the Democrats on that than Iraq, immigration, health care, etc.
