“The framers, I think, would have been astonished by the absolute passivity, if not the collusion of the Democrats in protecting President Bush from impeachment. I mean they created a system that was essentially idiot proof, and God knows, we’ve put that to the test in past years, but I don’t think they ever anticipated that so many members of the opposition would stand quietly in the face of clear presidential crimes. And it has many of us who study the constitution quite worried that we have a real crisis here; this is not something that was supposed to happen, it was not something one would predict.” — Jonathan Turley
