While we agree with the staff's support of the strike against Iraq, their criticism of impeachment is unreasonable. The impeachment proceedings have not been a debilitating distraction. On the contrary, yesterday's well-executed military action is clear proof that the government continues to function smoothly even while the House proceeds with the Constitutional process of impeachment.
The framers designed our government so that the problems of one official would not cripple the State. We are gratified to see that their architecture seems to have proven sound. Just because the president has acted rightly in this military situation does not change the fact that he should be impeached for his domestic crimes.
