Default Re: Politics and the Church - Impeachable?

In light of the senate apparently saying that "quid pro quo" in itself is not a crime and the president's specific actions do not rise to the level of an impeachable offence, upon hearing it my wife was a bit appalled. I think she see's the president's interaction with the Ukrainian officials as detestable and those of a morally bankrupt person, and a rotten example to make as the president of this country. I'm inclined to agree in part, but am not sure if it does rise to the impeachable level.

We humans often tend to excuse those who line-up with us in some way, and therefore are guilty of Machiavellian motives (i.e., ends justify the means) - those on both sides of the aisle do this all the time (yes, ol' Adam is a major hypocrite)! This has been strongly exhibited, and increasingly so, with the last several presidents and the two parties' view of them.

What do you think oh Christian?
