You'd be tried in a criminal court and probably sent to jail. That's EXACTLY what I'm suggesting should be done to Clinton. So this is not a reason for impeaching him.
> #2: He has commited the crime of obstruction of justice. That is WAY more serious than purgery.
No he didn't.
> #3: He is a immoral man. I don't give a crap if that isn't against the law, anyone that has as little scruples as he does obviously shouldn't hold that much power.
I agree. But it's even *worse* to take it away from him outside of due course. Think about it. What if you held a position (as anything -- President, mayor, teacher, security guard, whatever), and someone decided you were immoral and shouldn't be where you are. If that person had the power to remove you from your position, it doesn't take a huge imagination to figure out what a nasty world it would be. Chaos and anarchy would run rampant.
> #4: He took his fancies out of the private realm into the public realm when he did what he did in the white house.
That's not even a crime, just an exercise in poor taste. Not a reason to impeach him.
