The new flag of revolt should be a black flag with a tea kettle.

Ten Republicans voted with all 45 Democrats to reject the perjury charge and five GOP senators voted against the obstruction of justice claim, denying both articles of impeachment a simple majority in the 100-member Senate.

Republican Sens. Richard Shelby of Alabama, Ted Stevens of Alaska, Susan Collins of Maine, Olympia Snowe of Maine, Arlen Specter of Pennsylvania, John Chafee of Rhode Island, Fred Thompson of Tennessee, Jim Jeffords of Vermont, John Warner of Virginia and Slade Gorton of Washington all voted against the perjury article.

Collins, Snowe, Specter, Chafee and Jeffords also rejected the obstruction of justice article.

I have not forgotten.

Remember Trent Lott and Ted Stevens. They are particularly worthy of blame.

I am not a McCain fan, but if I remember right—I think he voted guilty on both counts.

In my layman’s humble opinion, they screwed up by not charging him with a violation of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Remember, if you will, the bill was amended in the 11th hour to protect women in courts.
