Dickey:

While arguments ad populum are definitely an illogic, one which many Republican voters regret, I'm sure, they are not the class of argument to which the impeachment argument belongs.

There are distinct impeachable offense on Bush's list of offenses, and I'm afraid Teribus' calm certainty is probably misplaced and certain ill-founded.

The reluctance is partly a fear of consequences (a highly disruptive impact which didn't seem to bother the rabid Repubs who houndede Clinton) and partly an unwillingness to turn away from more important matters like undoing the harm Bush has already done.

I know some folks don't think of what he has done as harmful, but maybe they should talk to the orphans, widows, multiple amputees and traumatized of Iraq, either side will do.

Or the dead.
