No, I am ignorant, and you're the idiot. The difference is I admit that I am fallible,

I don't know how young you are but even high school civics classes explain the impeachment process and the role of each branch of government. You either did not listen OR you did not understand. Asking the question of "should we impeach?" shows that you should never again post a vanity until you have some reasonable reason and facts to make your argument. I don't see why you are surprised that some comments were dismissive. To not have a basic grounding in constitutional process is unforgivable for a person old enough to participate in a forum based on exactly that. Yes we all have to learn however, that question could have been asked and answered on a multitude of threads dealing with the subject of CFR. I would hope you would keep that in mind the next time you decide to post a vanity with such an over the top title. If you don't, then don't whine that you are "just trying to learn".

High school courses only cover the basics, all of they refer to I had, including the charge. Consider the impeachment of Johnson. Here we Johnson upsetting the radical repubs by vetoing most of the Reconstruction Acts. Three months before his real impeachment due to the Tenure Acts, the Judiciary Committee had reported a resolution of impeachment charging President Johnson with omissions of duty, usurpations of power, and violations of his oath of office, the laws and the Constitution in his conflict of Reconstruction. Now I know currently that the Congress which voted for the bill would never impeach. It is mainly a question of what if they could have the option, if by some miracle we voted a majority of the senators and representatives out for those who hold the Constitution in full before Bush would be running for reelection. My conclusion based upon the posts of only 5 people say no. I am not surprised by the comments, I was expecting them and was trying to convince them that there are better ways to go about this subject. However, I will consider your advice to post under an already posted thread.

Being a newbie myself, I'm not really going to inject myself too far into an argument about FR protocol, but I just wanted to point out for the record that on other threads, several "adult" Freepers were openly suggesting that Bush be impeached for signing CFR. I don't know whether or not they were serious, but it probably didn't hurt matters too much for someone to bring this out into the open where it can be dealt with once and for all.
