That's cute and all, but would you like to volunteer to describe the
partisan advantage had by the Republicans in pursuing impeachment? What
was the goal?
The net result of impeachment would be to make Al Gore President, tilting
the Administration at least slightly to the Left, and forcing the
Republicans to run against an incumbent for the second eleciton in a row.
*HOW*, pray tell, did this benefit Republicans?!?!?!?!?
It just doesn't add up.
If you are going to accuse the Republicans of pure partisnaship, be it you,
or Kristin, or whomever, you should at least try and describe a reasonable
partisan advantage to explain the partisanship. Otherwise it just sounds
like you are calling partisanship anything that disagrees with your own
peculiar viewpoint.
