Allan Dershowitz wrote against impeachment

Allan Dershowitz wrote against impeachment a nice book that I read a bit of and it seemed to me to well reasoned. I recall the basic idea was that there needs to be some crime done in order for there to be impeachment. I think that is a good point.

Besides that there is a point of Steven Dutch that one's faith is the source of one's values. So it makes sense whether one is Catholic or Muslim--as long as one's faith holds that there is objective morality,--that the whole issue ought to be thought of from an objective standard--from from identity politics

The problem is that the Constitution gives Congress the power to impeach in two specific cases. The Congress does not get to define its own powers. Or at least it should not as long as the Constitution is the Constitution.
