There is more than one way to skin a cat... or a President
“What I’m saying, there’s four ways to influence a president. And one of them’s impeachment,” Murtha, chairman of the House Appropriations defense subcommittee, said on CBS’ “Face the Nation.”
Rep. Murtha sees impeachment as a way to "influence a president."
Similarly, filing foundless charges against the owner of a porn shop is a way to drive him out of town. Likewise, the best way to shut down a nuisance bar is to stage an underage alcohol buy and the best way to disuade kids from smoking is to covertly introduce PCP into the filler tobacco.
Look guys... the Dems were put into power to END THIS KIND OF SENSELESS crap!!!
We held ourselves up as the party of right, the party that would not be corrupted by power, that would obey the law and not make a spectacle of political process. If our party leaders have something, USE IT; not to "influence" him, but to remove him. This is the ONLY legitimate use of the power.
If we don't have anything to remove him, than make sure you don't over-reach.
This comes back, of course, to a basic rule of law... the public is not as gullible as we think and, when they see through our charade, they hate us for our trying to dupe them. This is true for litigators and for legislators.
Murtha... you and the other loudmouths should stop fishing for trouble. There is more than enough to do without manufacturing work.
