Forget impeachment, think criminal prosecution instead

I subscribe to at least two dozen Internet sites dealing in politics from both sides of the aisle. In the last six months, I have received an inordinate number of e-mails imploring me to sign petitions seeking the impeachment of the entire executive branch of the American government. One site claims more than 100,000 signatures to its petition alone. Two years ago, I would have supported these calls to remove the executive branch. Today, I cannot.
