Impeachment Theater 2.0: The Constant Drumbeat of Heated Language – From House Democrats

Steve MacDonald

As Impeachment 2.0 – Revenge of the Democrat House Managers plays out in the US Senate, some interesting and obvious problems have arisen. First, the House did little in the way of a process. They had the votes, called it, boom, and it was done. Impeachments are political acts, so fair enough. But the basis for the vote has hit a wall of House Democrat Rheotoris you could call ‘heated.’

All this caterwauling is clearly just cover for keeping the bloated bureaucracy alive so they can milk it for union campaign contributions.

Quick Note To Those Seeking A Reasoned Political Debate

Steve MacDonald

The first step would be to advance a theory where government didn’t have its fingers in every single pie. If the state left more decisions to local and individual control there would be a lot less to debate, and less heated rhetoric, because it would be none of the political classes damn business.
