How about this as a real motive behind the seemingly self-destructive Republican continuing press on impeachment ? They are trying to get rid of the Independent Counsel statute. It originated after Watergate , and Republicans have always disliked it. Republican Presidents have been its main targets. Just as Reagan undid the New Deal by running deficit spending into the ground, the powers-that-be are using the same method to destroy the Indep. Counsel law: run it into the ground so everybody hates it. The Republican goal is to strengthen the office of the Presidency in the long run.
