How many "punishments" are there really in the Senate? Nothing, Censure, Resignation, Expulsion? It feels like a false choice to have to force every possible offense to be equated simply because you call for the same consequence. There's far more potential offenses than categories! This is exactly my problem. Rock wants to punish Al Franken. Censure would be fine by me, but apparently not by Rock. Therefore regardless of the severity, he wants to inflict one of the two harshest penalties possible, both of which involve Franken losing his job without his constituents having a say in the decision. And if there are so few potential punishments and Rock wants the same punishment for Roy Moore, then you are in effect saying that their respective offenses are on the same tier. --- Touch fuzzy.
