Given that Bush is at the center of two stolen elections, the "new Pearl Harbor" of September 11, 2001, the USA PATRIOT Act, illegal wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, the torturing of war prisoners and those he has deemed "enemy combatants," the lies he and his cohorts told to launch their wars and the lies they keep telling to keep their wars going, a destroyed US economy, and more scandals and corruption than Carter has little liver pills, and now the slap in the face that the constitution is "just a goddamned piece of paper," what constitutes and impeachable offense? Is only oral sex in the Oval Office and/or lying about it impeachable?
What will Thompson say if between November 4, 2008, and January 20, 2009, Bush totally casts aside that "goddamned piece of paper" and announces he isn't giving up the presidency or perhaps he calls off another rigged election to put a successor clone in office and simply declares himself "president for life?"
Arianna Huffington took a similar weak-kneed approach in her blog Monday, in which she started off by saying Bush's "fanaticism is a scary prospect for the country."
She noted, "The latest issues of both Time and Newsweek paint a portrait of an isolated president detached from the reality of all that is going on around him. Nothing seems to be penetrating -- not the rising death toll, not his depressed poll numbers, not the continuing revelations about the deceptions his administration used to lead us to war. Not even the growing skepticism about the war being expressed within his own party."
Say what? She just expended 836 words telling us he ain't gonna get out of Iraq and that knowing what he knows today, he would do it all over again. Yet, she expects the Republican leadership that is growing fat on Bush's illegal wars, criminal tax cuts and economic mess to march into the White House and tell him to get out of Iraq. Talk about delusional.
If we want to reclaim what is left of America and our freedoms, we must demand that the whole Bush regime be impeached by the House, convicted by the Senate and turned over to civil authorities for prosecution of their crimes. Three more years of the Busheviks is a recipe for more disaster at home and abroad.
