Also, I will repeat this since you ignored it:

quote:

Look at Alcee Hastings.

1. Acquitted at criminal trial in 1983
2. Impeached and removed in 1989 for overlapping behavior to the 1983 trial

If your system is correct, how in the hell did THAT happen?


You do know this clause isn't specific to the President, right? People have been impeached and removed in real cases.

How was Hastings removed by the Senate AFTER he was acquitted in criminal court, if your stance is that a conviction by the Senate is required first prior to criminal prosecution?

Do judges have immunity from taking bribes?
