:: First of all, impeachment is a punishment, it’s not a remedy. ::

I think is where FR ought to focus on our efforts.

When I spank my child, it does not change the fact that the furniture was broken due to his/her poor judgement; neither does it fix said furniture.

Impeachment/conviction removes him from office... there aren’t any other sanctions in it.

It’s not like spanking a rebellious child. It’s like disowning him.

Punishment is prosecution in a court of law.

Impeachment is not punishment. Impeachment is removal of a person from Office to protect the country (or state, etc) from their misuse of authority and the endangerment they pose.
