We disagree, because you're using the wrong terms. Words mean things. Impeachment is not conviction.
Practical usage of language doesn't allow for such misdefinition and misugage of words. The language of the Constitution is largely plain language, and is far from arcane.

The Roman boy-emperor Elagabalus from 218 to 222, was said to enjoy practical jokes and would often place a whoopee cushion under the chairs of his most pompous guests.
The modern version was invented in the 1920's or 1930's, depending on which source you look at, by the JEM Rubber Company of Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
Whoopi Goldberg had nothing to do with having a Whoopee Cushion named after her!

You are wrong. The House DOES impeach. That is it and as clear as any of us can put it. AFTER the house impeaches a President the Senate has a trial and decides whether or not the President is removed from office. But no matter the Senate decision the President is still impeached. But he will still be in office as POTUS and may be reelected again for the second term.
