No! I mean the part that says "I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same;...
I don't see anything about unless the senate refuses to convict there!
We agree 100.000% there.
But from a pragmatic stand point, and I will give 1995 /1996 as an example.... Here were my observations
1. A POTUS with his fingers within 10 feet of the launch codes got a BJ from a white house intern.
2. He lied about it to the media.
3. He lied to Congress under oath.
4. Clinton was Impeached for Perjury and Obstruction of Jusitce pretty close to party line.
5. The Senate chose not to convict..... by a whopping 22 votes.
6. Clinton received "victimhood" status from the MSM 1995-1996 for basically lying about a sexual affair.
7. Clinton's approval rating went from 42% during impeachment to 60% by the time of the '96 election.
8. Clinton used that victimhood meme and it helped him get re-elected.
The point I am making, is that while I agree that Pedo Joe should be impeached, convicted...... Hell... I think he should be in jail. And what Slick Willie pulled off, was a exploitation of the system.
The systems that Constitution has put in place makes it impossible to hold him accountable when you have such a large faction in oppostion who are just as bad and complict. And sadly us trying to hold him accountable will backfire miserably.
Please don't shoot the messenger. As my constant dwelling on the deficit, I am as principle minded as any. Still, I am a realist, who understands we need to better our lives in ways that will really work with the structual confines of our government. And impeaching this old fool only gives him a life line.
