Oh, the irony.

Steinglass & Scarselli’s book agrees with my analysis that the term “misdemeanor” in Ohio’s constitution refers to the broad definition as “misdeeds,” instead of a strict category under Ohio’s criminal statute.  So, given Ohio’s historical precedent for impeachment, there is absolutely no reason that the Ohio House of Representatives could not begin impeachment proceeds as early as Monday.  Heck, if Judiciary Chairman Bacon genuinely believes that Dann himself committed perjury in his testimony, then he has a constitutional obligation to begin investigatory committee hearings to consider impeachment.  He’d be violating his oath of office to uphold the constitution and his responsibility as the House Judiciary Chairman not to do so.

Dear GOP.  Please impeach.  Go for it.
