You know, I often get questions about impeachment at town hall meetings and I’ve said that is not something I think would be fruitful to pursue because I think that impeachment is something that should be reserved for exceptional circumstances.<\/p>\n
Now, if I found out that there were high officials who knowingly, consciously broke existing laws, engaged in coverups of those crimes with knowledge forefront, then I think a basic principle of our Constitution is nobody above the law — and I think that’s roughly how I would look at it.<\/p><\/div>\n
On the other hand, last night, during her appearance on the Colbert Report<\/i> in Philadelphia, his wife Michelle was remarkably<\/i> impressive, I thought. Really. For whatever that may be worth. Here’s the video…<\/p>\n
