My brethren, do not hold your faith in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ with an attitude of personal favoritism. James 2:1
If anyone thinks himself to be religious, and yet does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this man’s religion is worthless James 1:26
This you know, my beloved brethren. But everyone must be quick to hear, slow to speak and slow to anger; James 1:19

Originally posted by oxmixmudd View PostSorry - doesn't fly. That the President abused his power of office and obstructed Congress in the process is clear from the evidence and testimony resented. What you should be concerned about is what it means that a large portion of the senate and congress are willing to overlook that evidence on party lines. That is the real danger to this country and its people. It sets the stage for far worse than Trump if not dealt with.

Originally posted by Mountain Man View PostThe failure to reference a single law or US code that Trump is supposed to have violated is a glaring omission.
Congress is only 1/3 of the branches of government. If one co-equal branch (the Executive) appeals to another co-equal branch (The Judiciary) as to whether or not to comply with another branch (the Legislative - and a very partisan sector, at that, and only HALF of the two houses of Congress) it's absolutely nutty to call it "obstruction of Congress".The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

Originally posted by Mountain Man View PostIt looks like that's what they've settled on, two vague and amorphous terms that don't describe any actual crimes.

This thing is turning into a bigger farce than I think anybody could have predicted.

Originally posted by Mountain Man View PostWhat's the actual crime? What's the US code?

The universe is doomed, you are doomed, the only thing that remains is to await your execution...

The House of Representatives is only ONE PART of Congress.
Congress is only ONE PART of the THREE branches of government.
A very partisan committee of that ONE PART of Congress is charging one of the THREE BRANCHES of government with obstructing their little band of partisans....
HEY, LOOK.... Shifty Schiff has come out of hiding to try to justify his little band of partisans' nutty impeachment charges!!!!The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

Vulnerable Democrats are still begging for censure instead of having their political fate tied to an impeachment vote.
