The Republicans turned impeachment from trial for high crimes and
misdemeanours, into another political tool to try and get rid of a
popular President they didn't like.

They would see criminal charges against Bush in the same light.

They also turned the International Criminal Court into a political
circus, going after foreign political leaders they don't like while
ignoring their own misdeeds and those of their friends.

> Did it list any crimes?

The proposed indictment is a hoot, actually, and it's aimed
squarely at the birthers and tea partiers:

unlawfully exercised the authority of his office to take
private property for public use in violation of the
Fifth Amendment of the United States Constitution, which
guarantees to the People that "private property shall
not be taken for public use without just compensation,"
and without "due process of law";

No details provided.

unlawfully interfered with the management of private
companies for the purpose of achieving government
control of them, in violation of the Fifth Amendment of
the United States Constitution.

The Fifth Amendment does not, of course, mention the
management of private companies at all.

unlawfully interfered with the economic rights of the
People by imposing unreasonable impairments in the
fulfillment of their intended contractual obligations,
and their ability to enter into such contracts, and
attempting to change our fundamental economic system,
where there is no significant or legitimate public
purpose to do so.

The Constitution does not describe a "fundamental economic
system" for our nation, nor does it proscribe changing the
economic system. (Regardless, the pro-corporate Obama is
hardly interested in changing the fundamentals of the
economic system, endless accusations of socialism
notwithstanding.)

And of course, there had to be this:

unlawfully engaged in a conspiracy to suppress evidence
of the true place of his birth. This obstruction of
justice has resulted in a violation of the
Constitutional provision that a President of the United
States must be a natural born citizen.

The most hypocritical of all the charges follows:

unlawfully refused his assent to the Laws of the United
States, and exercised false powers of veto that are
contrary to Constitution.

I call this hypocritical because George W. Bush, the
president beloved of the people who want Obama to be
impeached, was the most thoroughgoing scofflaw president
this nation has ever endured, routinely and indeed
arrogantly refusing to enforce or obey the laws had
Congress passed.

They didn't do it because you need a super majority to agree to it,
the dems did not have those numbers while GW Bush was in office. That
doesn't mean that it shouldn't have been done. I mean c'mon!
Unconsituttional wiretaps, unconstitutional data mining into private
phone records, torture, etc...etc... It's a long list.

Conjecture? The unwarranted wiretaps were ruled unconstitional in
two federal courts, and the SCOTUS put the kibosh on the datamining.
It's hardly conjecture.

You support such nonsense like that and call me a dimwit? How sad for
you. Worse yet, you need me to agree with you far more than I need
you. When your party is at 15% support you can't afford to alienate
people just because you feel bad.

Actually, it was in his case - that's the point.

It's great to have principles, and even better to adhere to them.
But sometimes we have to understand that it's necessary to
do what's expedient for the greater good.

I disagree. A Constitution isn't simply a piece of paper to disregard
at the whim of one politician.

But I'm not talking about a "whim."
I'm talking about overwhelming circumstances.

That's exactly what you are talking about. No one person may, EVER,
disregard the founding document of this country. That is the very
reason for having a constitution. Otherwise we would call it a
'suggestion', or perhaps a 'bill of not so much'. It is called a
Constitution for a reason, because it is iron clad, and requires that
certain steps be taken and conditions be met before stepping outside
of it. These conditions and steps were not met during the Bush
administration.

Dr. Franklin said it best when talking about 'the greater good".

"People willing to trade their freedom for temporary security deserve
neither and will lose both."


> I'm talking about overwhelming circumstances.

The Constitution provides for overwhelming circumstances, which
includes the declaration of martial law. The criteria for this was
not met, nor was martial law ever declared.


So, basically, yes, it boiled down to a whim of one man.

Then perhaps you would care to define exactly what it is you are
talking about, and how it applies to what was happening at the time of
Lincoln.

I am talking about emergency situations - such as the Civil War.
What else could I have been discussing?
OTOH, I would like to know why you called his actions whimsical.

The civil war was not an emergency. Some states succeded from the
country, deratified and simply wished to go their own way. The war
was avoidable, and going to war with those states was, in itself,
unconstitutional. Lincoln never declared Martial Law, which would
have been the REQUISITE procedure for suspending HC, and violated the
Constitution in hundreds of other ways.

Because his actions was based on his whim, not on established law.
