A conservative's case for impeachment
Most people don't know it, but there is a 60-year-old man out in the cold right now walking toward Washington, D.C., who says Bush and Cheney need to be impeached in order to save the Constitution. He says he doesn't like hiking, and he doesn't like cold, but that someone had to do something.

...

I call myself an Eisenhower-Roosevelt Republican. Eisenhower warned us of the threat to our freedoms of the "military-industrial complex." Teddy Roosevelt wanted the little guy to have a chance against big business, so he busted up the monopolies.

I believe that if either of these men were alive today, they'd be calling for the impeachment of George Bush and Dick Cheney.

What people don't realize is that John Nirenberg is standing up for the rights of even those calling him a nut. He believes, as the Constitution says, that every American has the right to a jury trial, no matter what the charge is. Under the label of "enemy combatant" George Bush can now sweep up anyone, waterboard them, and no one will ever know it.
