Bill O'Reilly (commentator) - Should President Bush be impeached?

"Not a shred of evidence. Not a shred"

From a FoxNews discussion of the possibility of impeachment:

O'REILLY: Talk about what? Talk about impeaching a president based on nothing? Based on a difference of opinion over a war? There's a difference of opinion on this.

RANGEL: Listen, impeachment is a legal process. It's in the Constitution.

O'REILLY: Yes, it's high crimes and misdemeanors. There's no evidence of any high crime or misdemeanor here.

RANGEL: But that judgment are not made by protesters at rallies, Bill. It's made in the House of Representatives.

O'REILLY: You can't get a House of Representatives to investigate anything unless you have evidence of wrongdoing, which you do not have.

. . .

O'REILLY: It's undermining a sitting president who's in the middle of a war. And you know we're in the middle of a war. And you know this is nonsense. Yet you think that somehow some good can come out of it. And I don't.

RANGEL: If it - no, nothing good is going to come out of it. But you are not going to restrict people who believe that the president is not obeying the Constitution as they see it, not to be able to scream out for anything. That's the American way.

O'REILLY: There's not a shred of evidence to back up that opinion. Not a shred.
