Because it's their excuse for being callous dicks who don't give a gently caress when people die If you're tired of that phrase just wait until a Target is looted or a Muslim does a terrorism, then we must have law and order, and civil liberties are a weakness E: I assume you mean the "liberty vs safety" line If you mean the "republic if you can keep it line" then what they mean is disagreeing with Republicans is a betrayal of the Republic

I agree with everything Hoyer said during his speech but its useless against the GOP. You can't convince a group of people in the values of democracy and the integrity of the constitution if they were elected by people who support destroying it.

CNN believes there are 7 known voting for impeachment. There are a few Republicans who refused to say anything about how they will vote, so there could be a few more who will quietly vote yes and scurry away.

smoobles posted:what's the point of the losing side of a vote forcing a roll call vote? This literally happens every time, even for purely ceremonial votes to rename a post office. They need to just change the rules to immediately go to a roll call vote and dispense with the pointless ritual of the voice vote that no one ever respects.

Is there some way to see who's voted already, or do we need to wait until the vote is completed?

Looks like we’ve got five who voted yes so far. Edit: Whoops, that must’ve been miscounted. It’s back to four.
