We are so close to an election. I will tell you, sitting here knowing how divided this country is, I don’t see the value of taking him out of office. I do see the value of putting down a marker saying his behavior is not acceptable.
I want to censure. I want it on the record that the House of Representatives did their job and they told this president and any president coming behind him that this is unacceptable behavior and, under our Constitution, we will not allow it.

That first quote was me politely asking you to take your derail elsewhere.
The second quote was me acknowledging that's not gonna happen, as you are currently demonstrating.
I COULD officially ask you, as owner of the thread, to leave, but there's a certain amount of entertainment value you bring.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

So, some Dems are still trying to figure out what they think about moving forward with impeachment...
Swing State Dem Flips on Impeachment
In this article, Rep. Brenda Lawrence (D-MI) seems to flip on her former opinion, then flips on that opinion, and flips yet again in an "update"...
Not all Dems are gung ho about handing this over to the Senate.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

Lemme refresh your memory, please...
Originally posted by Cow Poke View PostOK, so maybe you think they didn't, but something happened.
Was it Schiff's handling of the thing, being too controlling? (That's my personal choice, given that the made himself judge, jury, chief prosecutor AND media liaison.
Is, as has been suggested elsewhere on this board, that Americans are just stupid?
Current polling (and that may change) suggests the Democrats actually LOST ground by having public hearings.
Didn't they put on their most vigorous prosecution?
Didn't they call their best witnesses?
Since impeachment is entirely a political process (in that it's run by politicians, and, in this case, is incredibly partisan) what could the Democrats have done differently to persuade America to support them in their impeachment prosecution, instead, appearing to convince Americans NOT to support impeachment?
For Bonus Points... well, let's put that in a poll...The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

You as a participant have the option of disregarding the diversion (which was the OP's request) and returning to the topic or leaving the thread. Continuing to derail is NOT one of the options.
