You know, Democrats can be as wily and evasive as Republicans. It does not matter the reasons. All that matters is that it is wrong. That is shameful.
I am upset over the fact that this country was hijacked by zealots who felt the need to invade a foreign country just to steal its oil. All the while, war profiteers are racking in literal mountains of money while the rest of the country goes down the financial toilet.
In 2006, the Democrats retook the house and senate, on Capitol Hill. Of course, they did that because the Republicans ran amok with this country, and Americans finally got sick and tired of their shenanigans. What happened after that? Nothing.
When the Democrats did retake Capitol Hill, the very first thing the house majority leader stated was that impeachment of King George VLIII was "Off the table." I would like to point out that more than fifty percent of the American people want him, and his cabinet, impeached. It needs to happen.
I guess there is resentment in the fact that Bill Clinton nearly got kicked out of office for having sex with another woman. He did lie under oath. He was caught. Bush VLIII was caught in so many lies that people lost count. Of course, Clinton's lie did not result in the death of 4000+ young boys and girls in an illegal war. It only resulted in the destruction of a designer dress. Bush's lies are destroying lives right now.
Bush's lies are causing economical strife around the world. Bush's lies have caused the collateral damage of nearly 150,000 Iraqi people. Bush's lies have enabled this country to slide back into a monarchy. Bush's lies have passed laws that illegally detains people and tortures them in foreign lands.
Isn't the point of "impeachment" to indict someone for "high crimes and misdemeanors" in high office? Isn't that was Bush did? Why is there only one person who is actually starting the process? Why did the democrats shelve that idea as soon as they came into power during the last election?
I am pissed at the Democrats for not wanting to impeach President Asshole. They are too afraid to lose a future election they might (probably) win. If the Democrats didn't have the wind-fall they had in 2006, there would be no reason for them to not go forward with the impeachment. They know they would drive republican voters to the polls now, and they don't want to lose. Treachery, indeed.
You know, I feel it is just as wrong to not impeach one person who has committed atrocities across the globe just because you want to win an election, as it is to impeach an other person for trivialities. It is wrong to not impeach a current president because you feel your party may lose an upcoming election. Where is the justice?
Where is the justice for the maimed war veterans? Where is the justice for the detainees who are being tortured? Where is the justice for all the displaced Iraqis? Their justice won't appear if George Bush is not impeached.
You know, George Bush needs to be impeached. The process would send a message to other would-be wanna-be kings that this republic is not your personal playground. "Common" people outrank elected officials. I really wish Americans would realize that simple fact. During this process, the justice that people so rightfully are asking for would be delivered. The perpetrators who do commit these acts of arrogance would go to prison...or at least resign in disgrace. That is what needs to happen. Today. Now. It just needs to happen.
