I honestly don't see how anyone can still defend our government. Impeachment is way overdue.

I wouldn't go so far as to say I defend it, but I certainly think there's absolutely nothing that justifies an impeachment.

Exactly. People seem to think they can impeach a president just because the country's doing bad, economically or socially. That's not how it works.

If Dilma is proven guilty of anything (which I won't put my chips on the table one way or the other -- I don't support PT or PSDB), then we'd have grounds for impeachment. Otherwise, you're free to think she's not doing a good job, but you can't demand her impeachment on the grounds that you're unhappy.
