By the way, I can turn the same argument on you... Those who never complained in the past about corporate executives being intimidated by sexual harassment laws *SIGNED BY CLINTON HIMSELF* should not whine now when Clinton comes under the same scrutiny...


FYI, those who are complaining now are doing so only from the perspective of impeachment. Many (me included) don't have any objections whatsoever to Clinton being subjected to a regular court trial after he leaves office.

So, am I to assume that there are only 900 "constitutional scholars" in this country? Just because 900 people believe something, that is enough to make it so?

Don't you realize that 900 is a substantially large number? Especially when we are talking about something as esoteric as constitutional law? Besides, it is not just 900 experts. It is also 70% of the people in this country! So, if you say 900 is too little, would you at least agree that 190 million is just about enough! <G>

Your second statement about "people like me" (you don't even know me!) is the most laughable... Taken at face value, I can disprove your statement by coming up with just *one* counter-example (besides me) of a non-right-wing-nut who also agrees Clinton should be removed.

You didn't get it. I didn't say that you are one (and the only one) of a kind! As a group, you might constitute a small percent of people. But what your group has for company, is what I was referring to. Roughly speaking, 70% are opposed to impeachment and 30% in favor of it. Of that 30, 25 are right-wing nuts and the remaining 5 are people like you! In other words, each of you has as many as five full right-wing nuts for company!

True, I don't know you. But I know who you have for company! Good Luck! ;-)
