I disagree.  A considerable number of that Republican majority,
certainly the leadership, does not want to see Clinton impeached for
political reasons.  They couldn't care less about justice for the
corruption and criminality - they just want to play those things
in campaigns.  They are as bereft of morality and principle as the
DemonRats are, and just as culpable.
I don't leave the DemonRats out either.  They once had people of
principle and morality too, whose concern was the nation rather than
themselves or their party, who wouldn't have hesitated to roundly
condemn the wrongdoing we've seen from this White House, regardless the
occupant, and would've been out front to impeach such criminals.
Sorry, Robert, but there is no excuse for Congress not having impeached
Clinton already.  Furthermore, we have no business granting either party
a pass for their having refused to act.
