Sorry. That isn’t going to fly. You don’t get to beg for mercy and togetherness after you spent months fomenting animus, hatred, and flagrant lies aimed at suppressing the will of the American people. After someone has plowed through your rose garden and poisoned your dog, he can’t make a plea to be good neighbors now that he’s facing charges for felony arson because he was also caught setting fire to your house.<\/p>\n
There have to be consequences for unlawful acts. The perpetrators must be punished in order to serve justice and to deter others. You can only achieve real unity by honestly applying the law without favor or bias, not by forgiving the heinous crimes of the privileged. That, however, is precisely the dead end path that guilty Republicans are scurrying along. For instance…<\/p>\n
- \n
- Kevin McCarthy<\/a>:<\/strong> Impeaching the President with just 12 days left will only divide our country more.<\/li>\n
- Ted Cruz<\/a><\/strong>: We must come together and put this anger and division behind us.<\/li>\n
- Lindsey Graham<\/a>:<\/strong> I firmly believe impeachment would further destroy our ability to heal and start over.<\/li>\n
- And of course, Trump<\/a><\/strong>: We must revitalize the sacred bonds of love and loyalty, that bind us together as one national family.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
None of these hypocrites have any standing to cry for unity. They have been unity’s enemies for pretty much… ever! Typical among them is ultra-rightist Rep. Jim Jordan. He made his own appeal to forgive and forget the right’s abhorrent criminality, and was firmly in lock-step with his confederates:<\/p>\n
“Impeachment is for a sitting president. And the President, if the Democrats pursue this, could not have a trial until after he has left office. So I think it’s got real constitutional problems. But most importantly, it’s not healthy for the nation. We’re at an important point. I’m very concerned about where we’re at. I hope we can begin to come back together.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
