America sez: It's Chimpeachment Time!
Advertisements [?]
Guess what?

"President Bush’s televised address to the nation produced no noticeable bounce in his approval numbers, with his job approval rating slipping a point from a week ago, to 43%, in the latest Zogby International poll. And, in a sign of continuing polarization, more than two-in-five voters (42%) say they would favor impeachment proceedings if it is found the President misled the nation about his reasons for going to war with Iraq.
...In a sign of the continuing partisan division of the nation, more than two-in-five (42%) voters say that, if it is found that President Bush did not tell the truth about his reasons for going to war with Iraq, Congress should hold him accountable through impeachment. While half (50%) of respondents do not hold this view, supporters of impeachment outweigh opponents in some parts of the country."

Remember, there's been next to no widespread coverage of stuff like the Downing Street Memo or the Niger yellowcake fraud...no serious discussion of this on-air or in newspapers, and hardly any murmuring about a Congressional investigation into wrongdoing...

Meanwhile, you might also recall that even after years of 24/7 phony propaganda about, and lots of phony investigations into supposed Bill Clinton scandals, there wasn't nearly as much public support for the impeachment in 1998 as there is right now for the smirky little War pResident, without any churn by the media machine.

And Bill Clinton's approval rating on the day he was impeached by the crotchsniff brigade was more than 20 points HIGHER that this corrupt drunk's are right now.
