53. I have no problem with Dems talking about impeachment...

…all day, every day and twice on Sunday, as long as they are always stating how actions by TSF or any one in his maladministration warrant impeachment. This is education and is necessary. They do not have to move to impeach until Repubs come on board. The Dems can do this whether they take the House or not.
