Does a president or other elected official, if removed from office by impeachment, get to retain all his benefits and goodies? |

Does a president or other elected official, if removed from office by impeachment, get to retain all his benefits and goodies? I believe the answer to the question is 'Yes." Impeachment is only about removal from office. In some cases, impeachment (through separate votes) can involve a bar on holding future office. An impeached official could face trial for crimes after impeachment, and there could be other sanctions that come with a conviction in court. |

I would give BHO a billion dollars of tax payer money if he leaves office tomorrow! Hell make it a Trillion, it would still save us money Fuck that. He doesn't deserve one red cent, but should be tried for TREASON. Yes, he should. Along with Holder and some of the other criminals he has put in power. Unfortunately, that would depend on the Republicans in Congress doing what they were elected to do, and that ain't gonna happen. |
