The Clinton Impeachment Debate And The Rule Of Law
Thomas Sowell argues that impeachment is not a guilt verdict but a trial to determine if a case should go before the Senate. He criticizes moderates like Christopher Shays for demanding beyond a shadow of a doubt and contends public polls misstate impeachment. He warns that failing to send the case to trial weakens the rule of law and empowers future presidents.
