Doug, remember "the buck stops here...". It's not just words - the President has the ultimate responsibility, not those who "empowered" him or voted him into the position.

But it's too late now. I mentioned impeachment back in February/March, only to be told by people "it's OK, we'll vote him out". But if you believe someone to be a criminal, you prosecute them, you don't just push them out of the door to be someone else's problem.

To undertake impeachment proceedings now - even if it were a practical proposition, which I doubt - makes it look like a "sour grapes" action; just an alternative method of getting rid of someone at the top.

But the high moral ground has been lost. It should have happened before the elections.
