<<   An illustration of how things work in any legislature
         is on display in the impeachment of the US President
         for reasons that relate solely to a grab for power and
         money (by uniting emotional constituencies).  This is
         what his enemies hope to do. >>

Ah, the problem of faction!  Friedman lacks the ability to see these concerns
