　　Justice Story: "Impeachment is intended for occasional and extraordinary cases where a superior power acting for the whole people is put into operation to protect their rights and rescue their liberties from violations."

　　We know about the Huston plan. We know about the break-in of the psychiatrist's office.

　　"Protect their rights." "Rescue their liberties from violation."

　　The South Carolina ratification convention impeachment criteria: those are impeachable "who behave amiss or betray their public trust."

　　Beginning shortly after the Watergate break-in and continuing to the present time, the president has engaged in a series of public statements and actions designed to thwart the lawful investigation by government prosecutors.

These assertions, false assertions, impeachable, those who misbehave. Those who "behave amiss or betray their public trust."
