How can a President be convicted of Abuse of Power when one can’t define it? As an example see the Louisiana Purchase.

To the Democrats it is wh**ever they say it is. One big problem in all of this is they have the MSM and almost all cable news station backing up wh**ever they say.

Even with all that viewership was down another 20% again. The elites will never get it. We aren’t impressed at all with them.

That's exactly why they chose it. It's not like murder or robbery, it's an opinion. For instance, I think ad hominem attacks on this page, even those directed at the president (see pumpkin fuhrer) should result in something similar to a Facebook timeout. On the other hand, I am a virtual 1st amendment absolutist (you still can't yell fire in a theater). So it's an opinion on whether you think someone is an asshole and should be banned (convicted on impeachment) or if they have the right to their opinion.

So what is one supposed to yell if there is a fire in the theater?

I believe you are being sarcastic. Of course you can yell fire in a theatre; if there is in fact, a fire.

My apologies - I should have aded a "smiley" to my comment...... PS: Did you ever hear the Smothers Brothers routine about the chocolate factory?

However, I am curious as to what you mean about being a "1st Amendment absolutist"?

He cannot be convicted of abuse of power, J, beginning with George Washington, every president in our nation's history has, to one degree or other, abused his power. And every president in our nation's history has, to one degree or other, obstructed congress.

Abuse of power and obstruction of congress DO NOT meet the high standards for impeachable offenses.

Uhmmmm, probably because he just got it done instead of waiting on them to just refuse wh**ever anyway??? Or because he doesn't tell them everything as if they are “ entitled” to wh**ever info..?? They certainly are not, some key figures but certainly not all of them~~

Defining it ~~ forget it, they don’t know what it is he’s supposed to have done that equate to their charges~~~
