Cases For Impeachment?...Or Trial For Treason?

If you think back on all of the "high crimes and misdemeanors" that the Village Idiot has committed during his time in Crawford...oops, I mean time in the White House...you have to wonder how, after impeaching the last president for lying under oath about sex, the Republicans in Congress can look themselves in the mirror, much less look the American people in the eye, and justify NOT doing ANYTHING about the dictatorship of this guy and his henchmen.

Manipulating the American people into an unnecessary invasion of another soveriegn nation, in the wake of the biggest tragedy and pain this country has ever known, should have been enough. But, like any good dictator, he told the same lie over and over, and continues to do so, until enough people let it become THEIR truth. He is personally responsible for the deaths of nearly 2300 Americans in Iraq alone. When you figure we lost just over 3000 on 9/11, he is only around 700 short of Osama bin Laden! And they are BOTH still running free. That is nearly 2300 counts of MURDER! Not to mention how he kept implying that Saddam Hussein was responsible for 9/11, when he knew it was a lie....but told us there was WMD in Iraq, which the United Nations had already found that there WERE none....but when ready to launch his pre-planned invasion called it "Operation IRAQI FREEDOM"??? Shouldn't it have been called "Operation Get Them Damned WMD OUT of the Hands of Saddam Hussein"?? "Iraqi FREEDOM"? Who the hell signed on for THAT?

We have been given hints that there was more known about the coming of 9/11 than we are being allowed to know. And when the bipartisan 9/11 Commission wanted Bush and Cheney to "testify under oath" they would only agree to "visit NOT under oath", and in the wake of the Clinton impeachment for lying under oath, if THAT doesn't send up RED FLAGS to the American people, then they are too far gone already!

When you realize that, like Nero fiddling while Rome was burning, the Idiot was playing a guitar out west at a Republican fundraiser as thousands of his people were drowning in New Orleans and the western Gulf Coast, the death toll that he is personally responsible for, as the head decision maker where the buck stops, is enormous!

Then you can talk about his blatant moves to concentrate power into the executive branch....a common move by up and coming dictators, (see: Hitler, circa 1932). Checks and balances are the anchor of our democracy, and he and his henchmen will just have none of that, and his Republican collegues in the Congress are complicit in the slow extinguishing of the plans of the Founding Fathers, by putting up ABSOLUTELY NO RESISTANCE to his power grab!

He, who's family is joined-at-the-hip with the Arab oil producers, wants to allow the UAE, which has connections with him and dad along with the bin Laden family thru The Carlyle Group, to purchase control of over 20 of our ports, including six of our most vital in the area of National Security. Seems the idea of National Security wasn't really his motivating factor.

The list goes on and on.....and on and on....and on and on....!

People who are still alive that were rocked to sleep in Germany in the 1930's and 1940's, will tell you that this path can be VERY dangerous.

Throw in that starting with the 2000 election, he has baited and switched his way around in the sneekiest of ways that would have made a 19th century snakeoil salesman blush, for instance why taxcuts for the rich were needed. Remember, first it was because with a surplus we were keeping in the coffers the money of the rich which they should have returned, because the economy was so good. Then after he and Cheney kept talking DOWN the economy, while their lawyers worked to steal the election, which helped it to take a nose dive even BEFORE they took office, it was because the rich needed the money to "invest" it back into the economy. Everytime he spoke, especially after 9/11, every problem had one of two possible answers for a fix. "BOMB IRAQ" or "TAX CUTS FOR THE RICH". And if we haven't noticed......he accomplished BOTH.

Ok...now I have vented.

Dear America;

I humbly and sincerely apologize for voting for Bush not once but twice. I have been awakened to the lies and I could make a list but a broken former republican is not in a position to do anything at this time but ask for forgiveness. I am truly sorry for my votes and for being so gullible to believe the corrupt, cynical, and downright evil marketing campaign that now in hindsight was so clearly false and superficial.

Since this is the season of Lent what do you prescribe as due penance for a sad soul like myself? I have always held beliefs in many things that my conservative friends consider liberal but now I am proud to say that I have come out of the gutter (not closet as that is too good) to disavow any affiliation with the party of abuse of power and corruption that Enron looks like petty theft.

...did the same thing but only once! And after she finally saw "Farenheit 9/11" just a few months ago.....she now is REALLY PISSED!

Anyway, the same thing happened to millions of others! You are forgiven by the ole Texan. Seeing the light late, is better than never having seen the light at all!!

WELCOME TO DU!!

I was once enamored of the republican line of crap.I'm probably older than you my mistake was Nixon the first time he won.again welcome

...served under him in France. Felt obligated in 1952....SWORE he would NEVER do that again.....never did. Raised me the SAME way...yellow dog.

in your area . . . and tell all your friends! . . .

welcome . . . :)

It took great courage to come here and write what you did, and I respect you for that. There's nothing wrong with being a Republican; hopefully what you realize now is that the people you voted twice for are NOT Republicans, but Neoconservatives. They fooled you and everyone else who voted for them. And they've all but destroyed the GOP.

Penance: go out of your way to reach your conservative friends. Get them to open their eyes. Take the abuse like we all do. And if you're really gung-ho, start trying to reform the GOP locally. Or join the Dems and help them. (They too need a bit of an overhaul and cleaning out.)

From a liberal Independent who's happy to see you here.

I'll admit to Regan... He seemed like an actor who had tasted real life, which in my eyes made him good presidential material... Boy was i wrong! he gave a big tax cut to the top 3% like Bush and put laws in place that allowed media to become the repuke mouthpiece that it is today.

We all make mistakes. I voted for Bush Sr. in '88. I didn't educate myself beforehand; Dukakis simply didn't impress me. I then voted for Clinton in '92 and '96 because he did, and I was becoming aware of the issues at stake...Finding my liberalness, if you will. ;)

I think a lot of people vote that way. It's about party loyalty or they treat elections like a popularity contest. Obviously neither is a smart way to cast a ballot.

My ignorance back then fills me with shame but it also helps me to understand it in others. (To an extent! Bushbots get no sympathy from me.)

I have never voted for anything but a Democrat in my life. Straight party line voter.....but that's OK....you guys finally came around..LOL
