Why post the article if you’re only going to tear it down?
Is your purpose to dispirit others?
I believe the Congressman quoted here knows that very thing himself. In fact, I’m sure he does. And so do a lot of other members of Congress know that same thing. I was posting here during the time Clinton was going through this process ... and I saw EXACTLY how the vote broke down along party lines - even though there was an absolute violation there. It didn’t make one bit of difference when it came to one’s own political party.
So, what everyone learned, and learned very clearly ... was that you don’t start the process unless you have the votes to “finish the process”! And we know how absolutely “partisan” the Senate is.
Maybe we’ll have the votes to “finish the process” after the next election ...but without being able to “finish it” - you don’t “start it”.
That’s exactly the same thing that goes on inside a District Attorney’s office ... if they don’t think they can actually “finish the process” (which is get a jury to convict), then they won’t even “start the process”.
