Just Read Molly Ivins Column - she doesn't think they put GW Back Together

again. And she keeps up on this stuff. She also said she isn't for impeachment because the Republicans have turned impeachment into piffle - and she also doesn't want Cheney in there because he is seriously off his rocker. And deeply paranoid.

I think she is right. I don't think there is any way to put Geo. Bush back together again. He's is so done!

Now we have to figure out how to undo all of the damage these lunatics have caused.

if Congress finally decides to represent the people and not their corp contributers.

But I think Congress is just so deeply corrupt that they all need to go, too.

He may be done, but he's still there, isn't he? I don't see anyone doing anything to put a stop to his lunacy.

best way to go. He will be the best negative ad we could find for the 2008 campaign.

So does Cheney and a good portion of Congress as well. IMPEACH!

he might do. Then we can investigate and lay out the case before the American people.

Without question, without any doubt.

Sure, she has a point about the republi-CONS turning a grave matter like IMPEACHMENT into piffle - over lies about a blowjob (!!!!). I submit that THIS case would reactivate and re-elevate IMPEACHMENT to the intensely serious and consequential punitive step it was meant to be. We can rehabilitate the concept of IMPEACHMENT by using it like you'd use any serious tool or weapon - with wisdom and circumspection - and only when necessary and earned. Which this is.

And I frankly don't care if cheney assumes power.
First: it'll only be briefly.
Second: it'll probably do him in, physically.
Third: if there's one thing cheney hates, it's having to operate in the sunshine, out in the open where everybody's watching and it's almost impossible to hide. He's happiest when he's maneuvering from the shadows and behind the curtains and the closed doors and under the rocks from which he seldom is forced to crawl out. So let's plunk him straight down into that center stage seat, 'eh?
Fourth: the entire IMPEACHMENT process would so demoralize and tizzi-fy the enemy that they'd be good for little else. It would help the efforts to set them back for a generation.
Fifth: it NEEDS to be on bush's record. It just needs to be there. He needs to have that blot, as well as all others, because THAT ONE is hard to avoid by the historians - no matter what their slant. Justice NEEDS to be served. The message NEEDS to be sent. Like Nixon, bush and his buddies need a strong, hard kick in the teeth to get it through to them - that NOT A ONE OF THEM IS ABOVE THE LAW. It just simply NEEDS to happen to restore our self-respect - for our own sakes as a nation, and for our own standing in the world. The message we send by NOT IMPEACHING is much worse, more bitter, and far less admirable about us as a people, than if we went through with it. We'll be the ones who were okay with letting the bad guy get away unpunished, unaccountable, and (in many people's minds) vindicated. To me, at least, THAT one is just NOT an option.
Nor is point-the-sixth: IMPEACHING this SOB is the ONLY way to ensure that all those sons and daughters of ours (and other precious loved ones) who were slaughtered in Iraq so this jackass could swagger around with a stuffed codpiece and play tough-guy - will NOT HAVE DIED IN VAIN. To let him go unpunished is the ultimate sin - even worse, in my opinion, than the many sins he has committed.

As a nation, with any self-respect left, this is something that we CANNOT ignore, neglect, or shy away from. It would be the MOST gross dereliction of duty to let him get away with this unpunished and unaccountable. Again - if that happens, there will be legions of assholes and Pox "news" afficionadoes who will read that as "bush was right."

of all 3 branches of government
can start a nuclear war with the flip of his lame little wrist
can ramsack "DEMOCRATS" offices with the FBI
can install his DOD / Uniform Wearing / Rumsfeld Ass Kissing / General Hayden as head of CIA to cut off any would be assassins to his plan
can make gay marriage impossible for the duration of his next 3 terms (when he simply votes himself in as monarch)
can put peace activists along with immigrants he deems 'illegal' in concentration camps (otherwise called detention center), the same way he deemed 'enemy combatants and terrorists' undeserving of justice

I'm sorry.

Anyone who does not connect the IMPERATIVE of impeachment.. as a history setting way to reverse the amazing abuses of democracy this administration has committed, regardless of whether it's feasible to convine the bootlicking ass/kissing butt/wiping spineless jellyfish in congress to vote for it.. someone and I don't care who, MUST BRING UP articles of impeachment for a man for whom there is ample evidence. I don't give a good god damn if it's impossible. it must happen and happen now.. not one more minute of this man's insanity... who knows the rethugs that want their party to be able to win in the future might just go along with impeachment.... we have to give them the option.... who would have thought hastert would come out against an FBI raid of a democrat? it's snake eating snake now in the white house.. justice, though slow, will ALWAYS be served.. the only justice for Bush and Cheney is full on impeachment and then delivery to the Hague for war crimes.

anything short of that wills how history that you can get away with murdering democracy and the rest of the people of the nation will let it happen.
