Impeachment Theatre: Seven GOP Idiots Who Need To Go
Posted on July 12, 2008
Redacted: I goofed when reading the story this am, read too much in to it through a link at a hard left site. But, not going to disappear it down the memory hole. We all make mistakes.
The Surrender Monkey, after taking the day off on iFriday, makes a special appearance, and he is thrilled, a thrilling up his leg!
Unfortunately, the list I sent to John Hawkins of my least favorite Republicans didn’t include these seven idiots, one of whom, I am embarrassed to say, is from North Carolina (though not my district)
GOP Reps. Smith, Sensenbrenner, Coble, Gallegly, Goodlatte, Chabot, and Cannon after much deliberation put the Constitution and rule of law before politics. Rep. Lamar Smith stated, “As much as one might wish to avoid this process, we must resist the temptation to close our eyes and pass by. The president’s actions must be evaluated for one simple reason: the truth counts.” Read their statements below.
You can go over and read the reasoning by the 7 idiots. Here is Howard Coble’s
Much has been made about the absence of bipartisanship on this issue, and I want to reiterate my position on that. Do not point accusatory fingers at Republicans or Democrats because there is disagreement. Assuming we vote our consciences and exercise sound judgment, little else can be asked.
…I take umbrage to charges that some are out to get the president…I take umbrage as well to those who claim that some approach this arduous task in a gleeful manner. I take no joy in discharging this duty before us, but it remains our duty nonetheless.
…I can’t see that this is going to shut down the government or tie it up, assuming it does advance to the Senate.
Idiot.

I’m afraid to say that you’ve not researched this. Read to the last page. After the last statement, is this note:
“The statements above are excerpts from transcripts of the House Judiciary Committee’s impeachment hearings. December 10-11, 1998. Each congressman is a current member of the House Judiciary Committee.
What the author is doing is taking the speeches that were made in regards to President Clinton and suggest that under their logic, Bush should be impeached.
No, you are right, Adam. I hosed this one, pure and simple.
Take this as a warning sign that you’re a jingo, reflexively shooting from the hip with no deep thought about the impact of Bush/Cheney’s “Unitary Executive” theories on the future of our Constitution.
Take this as a warning sign that you have drunk the leftist kool aid and can only type in talking points, Jeremiah. Sit back, have a glass of water, and ponder issues in your own thoughts.
I have yet to recite a talking point. As a former-Republican, former-Constitution Party member – I’m very well accustomed to thinking for myself.
