CALLING FOR THE IMPEACHMENT OF G.W. BUSH???

Nailing Dick Cheney for tax evasion would be like nailing Al Capone for tax evasion. But the last time a U.S. president faced a strong movement for impeachment for actual impeachable offenses, one of the major road blocks was fear that an unpopular vice president would take his place, and this road block was removed when Spiro Agnew resigned in the face of criminal charges of cheating on his taxes.

As every American is aware, including even those who have never heard of impeachment, the primary problem with impeaching Bush is the horror of a president Cheney. For a long time I tried to explain to people that this was stupid. Cheney is already running the show. Cheney up front as the face of the White House would destroy the Republican Party for 50 years. An impeachment of Bush would incriminate Cheney and you'd impeach or indict him too. Impeachment is about placing the executive branch under the rule of law before 2009, not about the trivial matter of what individual holds what office for a year or so. A President Cheney with a Congress that impeaches people would be better than King George with Congress acting as court jesters. Impeachment and removal from office are two different things. Et cetera. It doesn't matter how many reasons you provide, the American public will never support impeachment of Bush as long as Cheney is vice president. It's a complete waste of breath to even talk about it.

I say this even though a majority probably backs Bush's impeachment in theory and would certainly do so if Cheney were facing impeachment and well on his way to removal from office. It's actually impeaching and removing Bush without Cheney that will not fly.

Given the crimes of Dick Cheney, the obvious question is why he hasn't – like Agnew – been dragged into court. Not to be a nattering nabob of negativism, but Cheney makes Agnew look like a bumbling boy scout of blither. Of course, prosecutors who charge Republicans with crimes tend to be fired these days, but citizens ought to be suing Cheney every week in this nation and internationally. Whether that ever happens or not, impeaching Bush can also be achieved by impeaching Cheney first, and articles of impeachment to do that (H. Res. 333) are slowly gathering cosponsors.

Bush's legacy and popular rating will be less then President Andrew Johnson's after Abraham Lincoln's assassination. With Tony Blair retiring... god only knows what's next?

Lying to the American People should be illegal in some matters. Bill Clinton's extra affairs is not a crime. A crime against the Ten Commandments but, not a legal crime. He was impeached for lying while under oath about his extra activities. Also Bill is really an intelligent man. Not like Bush... the brains come from his vice president. We all know that.
I had the great honor of attending one of Colin Powell's speeches after he was Secretary of State. He's too classy to implicate the President, Vice President and Secretary of Defense (Donald Rumsfeld) in a cover up for personal gain. He just laid it out there indirectly for you to connect the dots. This was before the leaks. When Powell was Secretary of Defense during Desert Storm he did it correct.
We were all deceived by dictatorship, terrorism and weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. The NSA & CIA ill-advised the war invasion to George, Dicky & Donald. The truth is that the invasion by war should of never been considered much less voted on. This deception included the Senate and Congress. One can only analyze the information given before voting. Under those circumstances I would of voted yes and been a victim of their grand plan. The invasion of Iraq was a deliberate, premeditated, well planed falsehood to deceive the Media and American People. And Americans are being killed!
I'm not affiliated to either Parties. I take a little from both. I think last November a message was sent to our present administration. Yet, we all might as well be barking up an empty tree. My problem is I don't see a strong front runner in November 2008 elections that can correct the wrong already committed. Everyone is too dedicated to winning their own parties vote. John Fitzgerald Kennedy said "Ask not what your country can do for you; ask what you can do for your country." That's the person I'd vote for. Someone who can put parties aside and just do what's right. We have people like that in both parties... but their not running... Yet.
We have an all volunteer army. A "Hero" is someone who does what his/her Country ask be it right or wrong. If killed it should be for the cause. Not for George, Dick or Donald. JFK also said "Mankind must put an end to war, or war will put an end to mankind. War will exist until that distant day when the conscientious objector enjoys the same reputation and prestige that the warrior does today." "Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe, to assure the survival and success of liberty."

VOTE! VOTE! VOTE!

Barack Obama U.S. President
Barack Obama is a U.S. senator from Illinois and the Democratic nominee for president in 2008. Obama has spoken often of his multicultural background: his father was from Kenya, his mother from Kansas, and they met at the University of Hawaii. After his parents divorced and his father returned to Africa, Obama stayed with his mother and was raised in Indonesia and Hawaii. He earned an undergraduate degree from Columbia University in 1983 and a law degree from Harvard in 1991. He then joined the Chicago law firm of Miner, Barnhill & Galland, which specialized in civil rights legislation. He also lectured at the University of Chicago. He was elected to the Illinois Senate in 1996, and then to the U.S. Senate in 2004, beating Republican candidate Alan Keyes. Obama shot to national fame after delivering the keynote speech in support of John Kerry at the 2004 Democratic national convention. The speech established Obama as a rising star in the party. Obama announced in February of 2007 that he would run for president in 2008; his last opponent, Hillary Clinton, dropped from the race in June of 2008, and Obama was formally nominated at the party's convention that August. He named Delaware senator Joe Biden to be his running mate. Obama published the personal memoir Dreams from My Father in 1995, and published a second book, The Audacity of Hope, in 2006. The title of the latter book was also the title of his 2004 keynote speech, and both books won Grammys for best spoken word album.

Extra credit: Obama married the former Michelle Robinson in 1992. They have two daughters: Malia (b. 1999) and Sasha (b. 2001)... Obama's father, Barack Obama Sr., was black; his mother, Ann Dunham, was white... Obama attended Occidental College in Los Angeles before completing his undergraduate degree at Columbia... Obama's Senate and campaign websites describe him as "the first African American president of the Harvard Law Review" and "the third African American since Reconstruction to be elected to the U.S. Senate." The previous African-American senators elected by popular vote were Edward Brooke (1967-79, from Massachusetts) and Carol Moseley-Braun (1993-99, from Illinois). Two other African-Americans were chosen by state senates to become U.S. Senators: Hiram Revels (1870-71, from Mississippi) and Blanche Bruce (1875-81, also from Mississippi)... His 2008 Grammy for The Audacity of Hope beat Bill Clinton's Giving: How Each of Us Can Change the World and Jimmy Carter's Sunday Mornings in Plains: Bringing Peace to a Changing World.

The Republican Party have had their chance with Ronald Regan ("are you better off today then 4 years ago" and "trickle down economics", A economic recession), G.H.W. Bush ("read my lips, no more taxes", an economic recession) and G. W. Bush; Bushisms: 1. "There's an old saying in Tennessee, I know it's in Texas, probably in Tennessee too, that says, "fool me once, shame on you. Fool me a second time, you can't get fooled again." —Nashville, Tenn., Sept. 17, 2002 [that's a Who song idiot. And it's, "You Won't Be fooled Again - The Who!]. 2. "Our enemies are innovative and resourceful, and so are we. They never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people, and neither do we." Washington, D.C., Aug. 5, 2004. 3. "Rarely is the questioned asked: Is our children learning?" Florence, S.C., Jan. 11, 2000. 4. "They misunderestimated me." Bentonville, Ark., Nov. 6, 2000. 5. "Too many good docs are getting out of the business. Too many OB-GYNs aren't able to practice their love with women all across this country." Poplar Bluff, Mo., Sept. 6, 2004. 6. "You work three jobs? … Uniquely American, isn't it? I mean, that is fantastic that you're doing that." He's speaking to a divorced mother of three, Omaha, Nebraska, Feb. 4, 2005. 7. "I know the human being and fish can coexist peacefully." Saginaw, Mich., Sept. 29, 2000. 8. "I hear there's rumors on the Internets that we're going to have a draft." second presidential debate, St. Louis, Mo., Oct. 8, 2004. 9. "I know how hard it is for you to put food on your family." Greater Nashua, N.H., Jan. 27, 2000. 10. "Families is where our nation finds hope, where wings take dream." LaCrosse, Wis., Oct. 18, 2000. G.W. has taken us into: "A ECONOMIC DEPRESSION"!!! 1920 all over again! Thanks George! Our Grandparents and Parents have nothing on us now.
Of course backwards is not the direction I want to go!
All of those quotes were during his campaigning and/or his presidency from the year 2000 in which our Surpreme Court picked The President. John McCain and Sarah Palin surports G. W. Bush. Even if you're part of the Republican Party you need to vote for Obama. Let's all get our national pride back and stop this down hill slide!
