Happy April fools day.

I don't know if it ever went public but last year we did technically impeach him, but never truly voted him out. Good fun!

You might be right about that, Joe.

I don't think you know what "impeach" means ;)

To impeach is to start a vote for removal.

Example:
The United States government started a vote in congress to remove President Clinton from office, but the vote failed.
Clan x86 started a vote to remove Queen Newby from office, but the vote failed (or was called off?).

Note the "wink" -- that means I'm implying something dirty. :)

You are not only retarded, but fucking retarded.

Clinton was impeached, as was President Johnson.  Neither were removed from office, however.

Technically, the word impeach has an even looser definition: to accuse. It's a very high accusation, though.

<Camel> you want to do it in my butt?
<Blaze> in my butt
<Camel> let's do it in the butt
<Blaze> Okay!

I SAID Clinton was impeached, and the vote to remove him from office failed. I also said Newby was impeached, but the vote to remove him from office failed.

You said impeachment was starting a vote to remove someone, that is wrong.  Impeachment, specifically in the U.S. House of Reps., is simply a majority vote.  It isn't a vote for removal, it's more of what you might compare to a Grand Jury in the regular judicial system.

Conviction of the bad behavior is what removes him, that's another vote.

Absolutely none of these, from a glance over, say you're right. :|

I'd bet that you're currently bloated like a water ballon on a hot summer's day.

That analogy doesn't even make sense.  Why would a water balloon be especially bloated on a hot summer's day? For your sake, I hope there wasn't too much logic testing on your LSAT.

QuoteThe House of Representatives must first pass "articles of impeachment" by a simple majority.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impeachment#Process

Then the Senate votes to convict (2/3 required to pass).


The House just says "OK, now the Senate can try him" just as Grand Juries say "OK, now the trial court can try him."

Number 6 in newby's list says I'm right.

I declare the horse dead. Want to give it CPR, Craz3d? It bled out, though, so it won't do much.
