Uh, Yeah: Times Edition

Neglected for almost a week: In last Saturday’s NYTimes, you might have been sidetracked by MoDo’s salvo in her brief but incandescent public catfight with JuMi. I wasn’t; I noticed that the easy-to-overlook, irenic Nick Kristof wrote at length about why we all should fear a capricious indictment (or two) from an off-the-rails independent counsel, because, you know, remember the hateful playground pushing that happened the last time a president was impeached? Aside from the fact that I don’t even know where the goalposts are now, or whether they even exist, because they’ve been moved so far and so frequently by the moral relativists on both teams, I found it somehow consoling that Kristof is able to rise above it all to suggest that an indictment (or an impeachment) would be a bad thing for the nation, and that it is the voters who should exact revenge:

Absent any very clear evidence of law-breaking, the White House ideologues should be ousted by voters, not by prosecutors.

And so they shall. After the Bush Administration reverses the twenty-second amendment, and permits itself to run for election again in 2006.
