My brother is a good Democrat and has always been so. As he follows me toward 60 years on this earth, he has become a bit more small-L libertarian, but he's still essentially the same liberal guy he's always been.
We're usually not very far apart on issues and we discuss them frequently .... even though we're on opposite coasts.
Yesterday we spoke for about an hour. I had been saying for a long time in our conversations how I felt about impeachment .... how it is our honor bound duty to do it once we get serious investigations going in Congress. He'd been of a mind that, strategically, it might do more harm than good to the liberal cause ..... you know ... the 'blowback' argument that's surfaced in light of the Clinton Blowjob Trials thing.
Well, now he's on board. There was no particular thing that put him over the fence, although the recent 'surge' shit may have been the final straw.
He's a school adminstrator in (far) Southern California. Most of his collagues, not surprizingly, are also liberals, although there are a few Republicans in the bunch. Most of them were also against impeachment but are now starting to turn.
I honestly think that, as time goes by in the next few months, the calls for impeachment will be openly dicussed, even in the Three Monkey Media.
There simply seems to me no good reason not to favor it. We in the hyperawareness community KNOW there are real crimes there. The masses will be finding it out in short order. The clamor will go out for Il Dunce's head on the figurative platter.
I have faith and I have hope.
We WILL get our country back. Damaged and severely bruised. But I'm of a mind that we are at the beginning of a generational shift from Republican back to Democrat. Impeachment is necessary to show that it is the DEMOCRATS who favor the 'rule of law' over the 'rule of lynch them for political gain'. And necessary to show that our country will NOT tolerate criminals at the helm.
