No one is sure exactly what those words mean, but both those words have to do with crimes. All Obama has done is be registered as a Democrat instead of as a Republican.

Also, some scholars say that impeachment was intended to be an ordinary remedy, not the rare thing we have made it. I don't know enough to say one way or another. I just know a couple of guys wrote a book to that effect not too long ago.
