@Cyber Liberty you have me confused with someone else.  I have supported impeachment since the Mueller Report came out.  I have detested Trump since before his election.  In fact I detested him so much that electing Hitlery in 2016 could not motivate me to vote.  That is how bad I saw him.  In the 3 years since my opinion of Trump fell lower and I've twice been banned a week for IMO expressing my disdain for the President.  Is there anybody else here who I fooled into thinking I didn't support impeachment last week? :shrug:

Nope.  Not fooled.  Not ever.   But that doesn't mean that I feel compelled to tell you exactly what I really think of what you post.... thereby probably getting myself banned.    :smokin:

And I appreciate your restraint.  I really hate swinging the ban hammer, I'm probably the most reluctant Mod in that regard.  Which is probably why it usually falls to me to do it....

“A decline of public morals in the United States will probably be marked by the abuse of the power of impeachment as a means of crushing political adversaries or ejecting them from office.”

Just a tad precedent wasn't he?

Well, if these are all your "facts"   pointing-up   your POV make sense now.   

The Mueller Report wasn't about Russian interference in US elections.  That they did was a given .. by all parties.  Mueller was charged with proving candidate Trump colluded with the Russians.  Mueller and his investigation failed because Donald Trump and his campaign did not.

Well,yeah,if you are going to be PICKY,but where is the fun in that?

The former New Jersey Superior Court judge adds that while he thinks impeachment is "absolutely constitutional," it is also "probably morally unjust."

Can anyone explain to me what this means?

Then he says that
Quote
the Mueller Report demonstrated that the president had clearly obstructed justice.

So we're supposed to believe that Mueller proved obstruction yet brought no charges? And if that's going to be one of the articles, shouldn't the dems be making that case in their hearings?

Nowhere in his comments is there any actual "analysis", he's basically just reading talking points that might have been handed to him by Juan Williams during the break.

What everyone needs to remember is that impeachment is merely akin to indictment, which is why it must then be referred to the Senate for a trial.

So viewed in that light, Napolitano is probably right in his characterization.

Here’s what happened. Mueller found no collusion and Trump attempted to obstruct Mueller’s efforts to find that out. That’s probably what happened.  *****rollingeyes*****

Trump was the one person who knew Russian collusion was a preposterous political ploy. And, if he was obstructing anything, he was trying to obstruct an illegitimate premise and process—if that’s what he did, and if it’s considered obstruction to protest your innocence and try to uncover who the snakes were and to stop them from carrying out an attempted political coup.
