Republicans for Impeachment

This blog certainly punches some holes into the theory that Censure and Impeachment talk will bring out Republican voters in droves this November. I would like a civil debate about this. I personally support both Censure and Impeachment. However, until next year (after the election), I don't feel impeachment is a likely scenario. Right now, I love the idea of censure because if takes major chunks out of the wall of radicalism that seems to surround the idea of impeachment.

Republicans for Impeachment
by David Swanson

Everyone's on message. The right-wing pundits, the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, Rush Limbaugh, Nancy Pelosi. They're all trying to tell us that raising a demand for impeachment is good for Republicans.

The vast majority of Democrats, most Independents, and a majority overall are supportive of impeachment. A remarkable 85% of Democrats in Pennsylvania (the only state polled) want to vote for pro-impeachment congressional candidates. And people don't just support impeachment. They're passionate about it. Bush is the least liked president on record, excepting only Nixon, and Bush is on track to break Nixon's record this spring. Nothing will energize people to vote against Republicans like talk of impeaching Bush and Cheney. Few other issues can provide the dramatic motivation to turn out voters in an off-year election.

They don't want impeachment. No pro-impeachment activist group I know of is getting any help from Republicans in power. Certainly the After Downing Street coalition is getting help from lots of lapsed Republicans who want to free the country from Bush and Cheney. But the RNC has yet to contact us.

Didn't they see the media mock the spineless Senators who ran in terror from Feingold's restrained little foray into the realm of action?

We'll see how popular the little lord Bunnypants REALLY is.
