I had my disagreements with President George W. Bush, and didn’t agree with every policy of Ronald Reagan, but neither president did anything that would call for impeachment by my understanding of our constitutional principles.-Some on the left have obviously disagreed. Again, the irony is that several of the things they accuse Presidents Reagan and Bush of doing President Obama has apologetically done. In addition, his administration’s use of the IRS to punish political opponents is significant in light of the fact that one of the counts of impeachment against President Nixon is that he ATTEMPTED to use the IRS to in a discriminatory manner.-Sometimes both parties show a certain amount of hypocrisy in their treatment of political issues, although often I think that the apparent hypocrisy should be better understood as playing according to the rules as they are, not as how you would want them to be. In this case, however, the hypocrisy lies entirely with those on the left who demanded impeachment of Republican Presidents for activities for which they give President Obama a pass.
