Impeachment of AJ...Skolnick, 2005

It happened once in the 19th century, following the assassination of President
Abraham Lincoln just a few days after the Civil War ended. Taking his position was
Andrew Johnson who angered key members of both houses of Congress by threat-
ening to finger them for their conspiratorial commodity speculations in opposi-
tion to Lincoln’s policy of going easy on the South to get them back in the Union.
Some in Congress, jointly with the French Rothschilds, favored harsh treatment
of the South, which would have made Southern farm products, particularly cot-
ton, to zoom up in price to their immense profit. Johnson was impeached and
escaped by one vote from being removed from office at his trial.

I vaguely recall this event and thought it puzzling at the time. It also convinced me that Barry was a died in the wool commie out to scuttle the Constitution.

Skolnick, 2005

Just prior to Katrina hitting the Gulf, Putin noted that
two U.S. senators were in Russia snooping around off-limits secret facilities.
One was Sen. Barack Obama (D., Ill.) originally from the former British colony
of Kenya and a year previous, before being elected, was publicly fingered by me
as a British spy. His accomplice in Russia was Senator Richard Lugar (R., Ind.).
Putin had both of their passports seized and the two senators were kept for a
while in custody of the FSB, the new Russian secret political police.
