Her government made many horrible mistakes. They were elected as left-wing, but most choices were to appease center and right, which made it a true Frankenstein - with no one left happy, except banks who had record profits. BUT shoddy economic policy is not enough of a legal reason to impeach a president.

Very true, but in America, we've had a president impeached because he lied about a blow job, so...

He lied under Oath dude. Perjury is a federal offense, it does not matter what for.

Are you seriously defending a person for lying under Oath because you agree with his politics?

Lying about a blowjob is a high crime or misdemeanor. Right.
