Roh impeachment overturned

By Martin Nesirky and Judy Lee

SEOUL (Reuters) - South Korea's Constitutional Court has announced it is overturning parliament's unprecedented vote to impeach President Roh Moo-hyun, clearing the way for him to return to work after two months in political limbo.

The opposition-led parliament voted on March 12 -- barely a year into his single-term, five-year presidency -- to impeach the former labour lawyer for breaking an election law, economic mismanagement and corruption among aides. But the president of the court, Yun Young-chul, said in the televised reading of the judges' opinions that the counts of mismanagement and corruption were not grounds for impeachment.

The court said on Friday Roh had violated the election law but not intentionally -- and that meant it was not grave enough to plunge the country into political chaos. "The court is overturning the impeachment case," the crimson-robed Yun said at the end of the 25-minute session in the courtroom, which is panelled with wood and grey stone.

but that's what right wingers do when they lose power.

The right wing will hunker down and will stubbornly refuse to accept Bush's Impeachment. The addiction to power has thoroughly corrupted the present management where perverting the rules for their self-enrichment has become a way of life for the immoral narcissistic GOP.

No matter, we're in for the fight of our lives. Extricating our country from the outlaws currently in office has to be a major priority for Americans, if we expect to have any sense of the America we once knew restoring it once more to the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave.

Another domino falls.
