The pubbies HAD the senate.

They also HAD the opportunity to rid our nation of Bill Clinton.

The pubbies chose to ignore their oaths and do nothing.

For this they ask for our continued support?

Wrong.

Read your constitution. It takes 2/3rds of the Senate to convict for impeachment. There was no way they were going to get 12 rat votes.

Briefly, and barely. Since they didn't get the entire Republican platform passed into law during that period, we should make sure they're all defeated next time, right?

Simply false. 67 votes were required, and the Republicans had 55, even if we count the RINOs.

The pubbies chose to ignore their oaths and do nothing.

False again. They tried. We can argue whether they tried hard enough and whether it would have made any difference, but to say they didn't try is revisionist history. The Dems and the media told us that Clinton would never be impeached.

Continued? LOL. Somehow I doubt whether you've supported them anytime lately.
