Suddenly Ken Starr doesn't like impeachment so much

Is there anything Republicans won’t say to make impeachment go away?

They attack the patriotism of decorated veterans. They decry rules that they devised. And they discard long-held principles as though the past never happened.

Comes now Ken Starr, responsible more than any other person on Earth for the impeachment of President Bill Clinton, to tell us what a dreadful thing impeachment is.

“It just seems we need to ratchet the conversation down because of the evils of impeachment,” the former independent counsel said during an interview with conservative writer Byron York released on Monday. “Impeachment has become a terrible, terrible thorn in the side of the American democracy and the conduct of American government since Watergate. . . . Let’s at least have a reasoned and deliberate conversation about some lesser kind of response.”

The rape enabler proves he's nothing but a right wing hack.

1. Lesser response? How? Nothing else works and if the guy and his cronies deserve it (...

impeachment) why not? What other recourse does Congress have? This is one of the things embedded in the Constitution that allows a check upon the Executive branch of government when abuse of powers occur (as it is now). I don't understand where you are coming from...

2. Evils of impeachment? The Trumpian Executive is the thorn

And it is EXACTLY why the power of impeachment was deemed necessary to the Constitutional authors.
