After all these years of GOP obstructionism (remember, they met as a group and decided to oppose everything that came from our duly elected President, Mr. Obama, way back at his first inauguration), including Moscow Mitch's causing constipation of the Senate (wherein he has flat ignored almost all of the legislation passed by the House of Representatives), I am not optimistic about the chances of Impeachment succeeding at this time.
That said, however, I still feel very strongly that this is the right move, if for no other reason than to send the clear message to them, and to the American people, that we still have some politicians in this nation who are willing to put our best interests ahead of their political party's interests.
It is very unfortunate that voter apathy has led to this sorry pass, allowing the GOP to effectively control (which in their case always means obstruction of anything that might benefit normal people) the entire government of this once free nation.
Somehow, we must find ways to persuade more people to register and to actually vote, at every level, across the nation. We must stop voting for republicans, and start voting for people who offer hope for all of us, instead of the very rich, who literally own most politicians today.
I could go on, but let's leave it here for now. Whoever you are. Wherever you are. Please register and vote!
