"Ask your buddies over at JW -- or ask Larry himself -- why Larry thinks Cheney might be impeached over something Larry is accusing him of doing BEFORE he was vice president."

Howlin,

I still do not understand what you are trying to correct me about. Let's go over the issue of Impeachment from a Constitutional perspective.

Article II, section 4, of the United States Constitution states: "The President, Vice President, and all civil officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, and other High Crimes and Misdemeanors."

No where does it state that these crimes or misdemeanors have to occur when the public official in question was in their current office.

In fact, Ken Starr was also looking into Whitewater and Mena, for added evidence in his Impeachment case against Bill Clinton. Both Mena and Whitewater occured when Bill Clinton was Governor of Arkansas, and not the President.

Impeachment does not require a criminal offense and Bill Clinton committed impeachable crimes that encompassed both criminal and non-criminal offenses. These offenses mainly occured when he was the Governor or Arkansas and if Ken Starr had found enough evidence, Bill Clinton could have been impeached for them, even if these crimes and misdemeanors occured when he was the Governor of Arkansas and not the President of the United States.

Stop now. You're really showing how little you know.

[Torie]

Actually Congress has the power to impeach and and convict Cheney because he was or is bald. Go for it.

If the VP committed High Crimes and Misdemeanors then he should be removed, no question about it. But aren't you and your buds over at the watch getting way down that road since you've not even gotten into the court room, much less picked a jury or had any depositions, gathering of evidence, etc.

Now why can't you tell me what the next major annoucement from your buds over at the watch is gonna be? Haven't they told you yet?
