I didn't pay enough attention

I did not pay sufficient attention in 10th grade social studies. I absorbed enough knowledge about the United States Constitution to grasp the essentials. And in the past five years I have re-read it several times. It is a stunning achievement and I cherish it. I am glad the oaths of office in the federal government (and the military) included upholding and defending the Constitution.

Speaking of which....
I'm just planting seeds here. Maybe you haven't given it much thought. Maybe the lurid, drooling debasement of the process over Clinton's blow job, with several of Clinton's chief accusers busy having their own little adulterous adventures, has soured you on the the constitutional remedy for abuse of governmental structures.

But, but, it was lying to the grand jury! you sputter. Yeah, well then why did Scooter get a pass?

The Founding Fathers gave us a remedy for the abuse of governmental power and grave harm to our democracy.

From Daily Kos:

17 videos were submitted to our Dump Dick YouTube group making the case for the impeachment of Dick Cheney on this basis. Five finalists tied for the highest user ratings on YouTube and then the overall winner was determined by a runoff vote on the Democrats.com site. The winning video, Nancy Calls for Impeachment, depicts an imaginary telephone conversation between Nancy Pelosi and a friend (played by the video’s creator—student, activist-musician, and first-time filmmaker Jen Datka). The friend explains to Nancy that the reason she’s so unpopular is her "failure to hold accountable the most dangerous, criminal, and morally bankrupt administration this country has ever known." She then cites the historical example of Richard Nixon to allay Nancy’s fears about impeachment.
