Title: Scuttlebutt about Impeachment
Post by: Eupher on September 01, 2022, 05:05:19 AM
I'm on the fence about this question. I can see the demand for accountability and to put it on the record that incompetence, greed, thirst for power, and failure to safeguard the country vis a vis the border are hallmarks and qualities of the entire Biden administration.

At the same time, I can see that even if Biden is impeached in the House, he will never be convicted in the Senate. And even if Biden is convicted (it will never happen) that puts Kamala-toe in the WH for two years. That's horrifying all by itself. The time would be better spent by rolling back all the damage that Biden has done or at least preventing more damage by withholding funding and other Congress-related powers.

So the question is, where are you on this question? Curious minds want to know!

You need to add "All the above"
Personally I think impeachment is not enough!

I predicted it when Trump was impeached:  Whenever the House is of the opposite party as the POTUS, said POTUS will be impeached.  The Trump persecution made it clear there are no longer any solid grounds needed.  It is 100% political.

The first order of business for the Republican House in 2023 will be impeachment of pedo joe.  Because political retribution.

I think a ripple effect of the multiple Trump-peachments is the watering down of pubic perception of impeachment.  Not sure if it was intentional or not, but by beating the dead horse, it created a feeling among the general public of "big whoop, another day, another impeachment, doesn't really matter".  The failure to remove Lying Bill fed into that perception also, methinks. 

Which puts me in the camp of: accountability comes by voting Sleepy Joe and as many donkeys out of office this year and 2024, and getting Republicans with spines into office with the understanding they get their shoulders to the wheel or they will be unemployed just as quickly.

Since LIEden and his Incompetent Ultra-Partisan Krew would not get voted out, I think energy would be better used to block and, where possible, reverse LIEden's crap.

I edited the poll to remove Tony Blinken (he's stupid and he's incompetent, but I don't think he rises to the absolute evil of SharterJoe and his thug Garland). I put in Mayorkas instead, because I do think he rises close to the evil of SharterJoe and his thug Garland.

Agreed. Congress can't accomplish a damned thing with all the J6 garbage, eternal vacations, failure to control spending, and primping for the cameras. Maybe if they actually got some work done by restricting spending bills to single line items only (yeah, I know it's a pipe dream), throwing out certain Dems from their committee assignments (Fartswell, for one), and more active work with the state legislatures in fixing the election system (it's still broken in many places).

You know. The stuff we pay them to do.

I voted for impeaching the supreme dictator, in light of the hate he showed tonight.
