Impeachment Epilogue

I haven’t written much about the impeachment, as its outcome always was a foregone conclusion. OTOH, I just read an Andrew McCarthy piece for Fox News that nicely sums up why it came out as it did.
The Democrats’ problem is not that they’ve been stopped from proving their case. They did prove their case … but their case is, at best, a petty crime, while impeachment is akin to capital punishment. It’s not that we approve of petty crime; it’s that petty crime is not a capital case. And even if Bolton testified, it wouldn’t become one.
I can’t say fairer than that. Hat tip to Power Line for the link.
