[QUOTE]Originally posted by Omega: [QB] [i]For someone who professes to believe in the Founder's Intent, clearly you can see that there's a big difference between lying about, say, trying to thwart the other partys' election campaigns and getting a blowjob.[/i] If you're under oath, there is NO difference. Perjury is perjury is perjury. Simple as that. [i]Impeachment is not supposed to be a personal punishment for wrongdoing.[/i] Impeachment is for the purpose of removing a criminal from office. Threat to national interests or not is irrelevant. [i]You want to argue Clinton should be punished? Fine. Please explain why impeachment, and not censure, trial after office, or *GASP!* even a prosecutorial decision not to press the case.[/i] Because that is the legal proceedure. If someone has committed a crime, they should be punished in accordance with the law. They should be tried and convicted by a jury (assuming, of course they're guilty). Since you have to impeach and remove an elected official before they can actually be put on trial, impeachment was the proper response to the President committing a crime. Or are you arguing that the President is above the law? [i] And Omega has yet to respond to the questions posed earlier.[/i] Oh, no, I've been busy for the last 24 hours. I must be ignoring the threat. Horror of horrors. [/QB][/QUOTE]
