here, here, here, here, here.

Frankly, the only thing better than a successful impeachment would be the next president declaring him an enemy combatant, in accordance with the powers he himself insists he has.

Heh. If Bush and Cheney got impeached, Hillary would lose her chance to be the first female president.

One of the ways that Rome fell, was that it became a political habit to impeach, convict, and arrest people for the crime of losing an election.

If you want to go down that path, do it with your eyes open.

The crime of winning an election, I think you mean.

And no, I want him impeached for the crime of murder, as well as the other charges listed. He's a bad man, he's done bad things, and he needs to be punished.

At least one of those charges /is/ the crime of (unfairly) winning an election.

I think he means "losing"; as in, as soon as you're out of power the dogs fall upon you. It's sort of an odd theory, since I think most people put the fall of Rome after its Imperial period, don't they? Supreme-Dictators-For-Life rarely have to worry about losing elections.

I was going to write a snarky response but I have learned from long experience that Mark is impervious to snark, let alone reason.

... and one heck of a targeting system...

Ballistic deorbit calculations are comparatively easy. Accounting for weather makes it harder, and if the rock is relatively small you'll probably want a steering system. But if the rock is big enough, you don't need to be terribly precise.
