The Dems are bulldozing right through the Constitution, House rules and any shred of decency. They have complained for over 65 years about “McCarthyism,” yet are practicing the most virulent anti-Americanism this country has ever seen.

Come on, you're better than this - I've seen some of your prior posts.

For one, the entire impeachment process is entirely within constitutional boundaries. This isn't a criminal nor civil lawsuit which follow well established, standardized rules of procedure, evidence, etc. Rather, it is entirely political, subject to only how far one wishes to push prior precedent and/or challenge public opinion.

Two, proglibs don't complain about "McCarthism" because they think it's unfair; rather, they complain because they think it's effective. They have no moral compunction about utilizing the same tactics & techniques - as long as it's in their favor.

Finally, one man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter. Who said "Moderation in the protection of liberty is no virtue; extremism in the defense of freedom is no vice."? As far as proglibs are concerned, their extremism is pro-American. If you really feel that the environment is endangered, that Trump represents a right wing block of xtian racists, then of course you're going to do whatever it takes to thwart that threat.

The real issue is more fundamental: How did two opposing schools of thought become so entrenched? Like CWI, when two sides simply cannot agree on basic principles, then it becomes a fight to see who will control the outcome, and impose those results on the other.

Democrats don't have principles.

They have tactics.

Are you for real?

I have quite a few ancestors that fought in CWI

Your whole missive seems to me to not engage reality at all.
