    Holly Re: shooter242 & sysprog & GoodCelery!

    ...We on the right notice such things as high level Clinton advisors (Stephanopolous) anchoring the ABC news. How about the proposal that Karl Rove do the same at CBS? Naturally the former is business as usual for Glenn, while the latter would produce apoplexy. -- shooter242

    This is pretty weak tea, shooter, and you know it. Talk about false equivalencies; it's rather like suggesting who can race to the bottom the fastest (p.s., Rove wins).

    sysprog: "I would not want my first term consumed by what was perceived on the part of Republicans as a partisan witch hunt."

    I remember Obama saying this and was bummed at the time. What I didn't recall was this: I often get questions about impeachment at town hall meetings and I've said that is not something I think would be fruitful to pursue because I think that impeachment is something that should be reserved for exceptional circumstances.

    By this standard (or, essentially, the absence of a standard at all), there is nothing under the sun (sorry, Solomon) that would trigger impeachment. How we've matured as a nation since those sorry days of Lewinsky and stained dresses.

    Is it all right to call you: Harley Derbig Moo`Chardonay? You drink Sam Adams frothy suds and drip tears in beer.

    You, sir, can call me anything you want (unless it's "late for dinner").
