Brandon, you have to be one of the laziest posters on A2K. First, you didn't read the article and only skimmed it, whining that it is too long to meet the restrictions of your attention span.

Then you use the excuse that you are posting from work and don't have time to read long articles, but it doesn't stop you from posting a lot of your usual critiques of other's posts.

Shame on you for being so lazy.

You're the lazy one, always posting other peoples' words, and never your own. Being at work is a valid excuse for only skimming a long article. I merely asked for someone to state 1 or 2 specific allegations of impeachable offenses, which you seem unable to do. Either you have something specific to accuse him of, or it's just wishful thinking.

I think that could be more true than we would like. Any number of things that this Admin has done would have taken another down. The continuous misdeeds, fukups, and venality happen so fast one after the other, that no one thing really gets the attention it should. The minute that it does, we hear how we shouldn't be criticizing the President durin wartime because it helps our enemy. Frankly, the true enemy is in the Whitehouse!!

Indictments aren't written in soundbites. Only a true moron would try to rebut soemthing he hasn't even read. Guess what, genius? Bernstein's conclusion is not that Articles of Impeachment should be drawn up. Read the article or shut the **** up.

I would think that the fact that 2 of the worst disasters in the history of the country happened on his watch-- 9/11 and the Katrina debacle-- despite warnings which would've raised red flags in any other administration, would be grounds for Congressional inquiry. Beyond that, certainly the veracity of the claims which led us into the Iraq quagmire also beg the question what did he know and when did he know it?

These issues seem just a tad more serious to me than did he have sex with an intern, but I'm funny that way. People's lives mean more to me than do sexual peccadillos.

I didn't try to rebut it. I asked for one or two concise examples of impeachable offenses by the president, something which apparently none of you is able to provide. Your normal practice is to claim that the president commits several impeachable offenses every day, and then to post an ad hominem attack against anyone who asks for a specific example. Carry on. On the whole, I'd prefer your crowd living in a fantasy world of wishful thinking.

How true. Sitting at the keyboard, cutting and pasting with in a frenzy and posting 10 to 20 times in a day in an effort to reconvince each other keeps them out of trouble and ineffective. Thanks A2K!

Now you are just flat out lying (or delusional). I don't even post here several times a day, much less accuse Bush of impeachable offenses several times a day. If you want to respond to those accusations, feel free to respond to them if and when they are made. On those threads on which they are made.

This thread is about Bernstein's piece, it requires one to read the article in order to discuss it. So when you have the time to not only read but fully digest the piece, feel free to respond. However, it's obvious to me that you are avoding the issue because you know Bernstein has Bush dead on.

Tell him to prove the accusation or retract the statement. That's always good for a few laughs.

Typical bad logic. This would only be true had I not given a supporting argument, e.g. that she usually posts other peoples' ideas rather than her own. Contrary to your statement, defending oneself against an accusation is perfectly rational.

Mere name calling - the lowest form of debate. Is this your interpretation of disagreeing with you, or of asking for evidence in a debate.

Congratulation on putting yourself in the position of mocking the idea that assertions should be supported by evidence or logic.

The fact is that you cannot and will not state in simple terms anything that Bush has done which qualifies as an impeachable offense. You can post ad hominems ad nauseum, and it won't advance your assertions at all.

Not at all. I'm not mocking an idea at all; I'm mocking your behavior. This is a statement taken almost verbatim from quite a number of your posts. You do not like facing the situation from the other side, however.

Your response to BBB is a classic example of the "rubber man" defensive respone.

For the last time, Bernstein does not present a Bill of Impeachment. Only a real simpleton would continue goofing off at work spewing nonsense then claiming he doesn't have time to read the article that is the topic of the thread.

I just do not understand why someone would pro-actively expose one's ignorance and just returning for more flagellation.
