Democrats, do what the Constitution demands

Some in our party point to our Reps' ambivalence on impeachment as proof we continue to act like wimps. But it isn't a matter of weakness but one of lack of patriotism. There's ample reason to impeach. The Constitution addresses a situation like this and shows the line of action for Congress. Notice that Dem's rationale for not impeaching is not that it's undeserved. I haven't heard a single Democrat saying what Trump has done doesn't yet rise to an impeachable offense. No, what they say is that it will backfire politically, "you see, it didn't help Gingrich". So, they also flaunt their responsibilities, spelled out in the Constitution, out of political calculations.

We want a record of well-documented offenses, and we want to see each senator voting yes/no, and that history books have that vote registered. The McCarthy years may have looked the norm to some back then, but history turned out not to be kind to those who jumped on his bandwagon. These four years will look different in the future when people will be asking "how did that happen"?

We should all get excited about this. Let's show those pusillanimous reps we've sent to Washington "to represent our wishes and interests", how upset we are. I was burning to finally find a sentence for that word, pusillanimous. I already emailed my US Rep, Zoe Lofgren, and both senators: Dianne and my future president Kamala.
