Say, Nancy Pelosi's chief of staff lied to the FBI and Obstructed Justice?

Or say, Harry Reid's top staffer lied to the FBI and Obstructed Justice?

3. 24/7 news coverage. The FBI would be raiding their offices within a week.
Congress would come to a halt as this "urgent issue"
overwhelmed all other business.

5. 99 years in the electric chair cause them Republicons are "tough on crime"
:shrug: They already gave their answer when they went before the Supreme Court and demanded a 24 year marine sargeant get the full thirty three months for the exact same crime. A first time offender with thirty five military awards for service and bravery defending his country. Bush* demanded he receive the full sentence...No exceptions was their meme...

9. Intense pressure from the repukes in Congress,
99% of the corporate whore media, and every crook in the executive branch for Pelosi/Reid to resign - not just from their leadership positions but from the House/Senate. Censure for sure. Likely criminal proceedings beginning with nationally televised hearings the Dems would be cowed into accepting in the interest of "bipartisanship" because this is a matter of "grave wrongdoing." FAUX News would forget all about missing blondes. The staffer in question, plus his/her boss would be hounded at home at all hours by an army of paparazzi and a large contingent of paid repuke staffers carrying signs and chanting simplistic slogans like "Hey Hey Ho Ho...Traiter Nancy has to go." It would, in short, quickly become a poisonous circus.

10. Use 1997-1998 as an example ...
when the "constitutional crisis" was whether or not Clinton fibbed about a BJ ...
