The only bad thing about impeachment is that Cheney would become president, no longer needing to speak through his little dummy, Bush. Of course Congress could impeach them both then Nancy would be the President-lovely thought. Seriously though, impeachment would take time away from fixing the problems that this administration has created. Maybe if we keep protesting and putting pressure on our congressional representatives Cheney and Bush will resign. As Republicans see their chances for victory in '08 evaporate, they put more pressure on them like they did
Nixon.
Thanks for visiting my blog! I enjoyed your post about the protest. Power to the People!
No you misunderstand- If we go for Impeachement- it would be for all of them- Rice, Cheney and Bush- But I need to say that Cheney is in Some Real Serious Trouble with the Plamegate Trial...I am definently not for letting Bush or Cheney slide by, they both are guilty- Cheney might be lucky if he onlyu faces Obstruction Charges....at worst Cosnpiracy....and Treason....
enigma .... If you have any trouble with the change over drop me a note, I'm no big time expert, but I've been foolin with it.
The pile of evidence has to be huge, so middle America screams for it. Will we get to that .... maybe.
Not impeaching because Cheney would become President is like saying, don't arrest one criminal because they have other criminal associates. Who knows what will come of it, but we must do the right thing and confront criminal behavior - especially with leaders. I'm looking forward to Cheney getting his supoena!
Criminal charges for this adminisitration- yeah! I'm all for that. Who knows what dark secrets lie hidden in their computers and in their top secret files? If it all comes out, this administration will make the Nixon Whitehouse look virtuous by comparison. I see your point about impeachment. If they aren't impeached, they will not be investigated and exposed.
The impeachment hearings are where the house reps start investigations into whether there is enough evidence to impeach. If there is & the house votes to impeach, then it goes to the senate. If successful, whoever is VP automatically becomes prez, who would then have to go through the same impeachment procedure himself & would result in whoever he had appointed VP becoming prez. The only way Pelosi becomes prez is if BOTH prez & vp are elminated at one go. The founders did not have impeachment in mind for that scenario, they were thinking more of some criminal or violent attack or maybe even a swine or bird flu thing that would take them both at once. It was just a worst case scenario to them, a back-up position that in practicality wouldn't be necessary because the first act of the newly sworn-in prez would be to name a vp.
Now, all that being said, proceeding with impeachment is STILL very important. The hearings in the house will bring out all the shit that the american people need to hear. It will tie up this regime & prevent them from moving in any direction (much the same as was done to clinton). That it also ties up the house & fed govt might not be so terrible at this point.
I don't know about criminal charges, but I believe building a successful criminal case can only be done once they are out of office. I'm all for that, too, but right now it is most important that Conyers be given the greenlight by Pelosi to start impeachment hearings. ~~ D.K.
Pelosi better do the right thing, that is all I can say, well plus all the rest of this. Okay, so that man, Karl Rove, that man is pure evil, pure evil. Bush and Cheney are evil. These men need to be arrested and placed in a facility for the criminally insane. I want impeachment, arrests, trials and psych wards here and I want it fast.
That picture makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. Like dryer lint, er I mean kittens.

wow...I was still working on the boxes ( this what happens when someone remains committed to maintaining a Library while moving cross country- my son and I had to give up alot when we moved- but The Library is very important....and we won't give up....ce al vie) You all have thoroughly discussed what has been on my mind...It has been a bloody weekend in Iraq and the thing about the Plamegate Trial is that if it leads Straight to the COVERUP ( and it will) will it also lead to the LIES that led to the Coverup- which is THE LIES ABOUT THE WAR....well if that is the case, then indeed it will lead to Investigations...Investigations are indeed a big part of the Impeachment process....( 40 million dollars and 200 FBI agents were wasted to know if Clinton had a BJ and lied about it).
Now atleast the Other thing that is definently creeping on the Table is Conspiracy Issues- and Conspiracy to defraud and lead a Country into War is a WHOLE lot different than Nixon...and Yes, as much as I do and did despise Nixon- he was not an evil man- just misguided and mismanaged...but not criminally insane or evil....He would never have made up such grandiose lies and bombed innocent people to get his way....never....
Thanks for coming by this afternoon and having such a wonderful discussion...
And CB- thank you I will head your way with some questions I am still adjusting...
Please read the Military Commissions Act, you can google it and see what it says about anyone committing any hostile actions against the United States.
This puts all those who would start impeachment in jeprody for arrest and indefinite imprisonment.
There all prepared to push back and its all done through Der Fuehrer or his head of Homeland Security. They have the final say who is and who is not arrested and lableled an enemy combatant.
Do you really believe that all these bills the Republican Fascist Nazi's voted on were just for the war on terror. No, they were also to retain control of power when the shit hit the fan with the american people calling for their heads.
Please google and read it, it is very disturbing.
God Bless.
I love the idea of dumping the whole pile, but that would mean President Pelosi, and that terrifies me. She doesn't seem to have a real firm grasp on reality.
Future I know you don't like her, but she is better than the Delusional King anyday...and much safer..Bush is getting ready to pick a fight with Iran- he must MUST be stopped- and the only reason he is picking a fight with Iran- it is ANOTHER distraction....from the Criminal Plamegate Trial...Bush has no plans to stay in the US...he has already bought his South American Land...like a true Nazi...
E, I think Bush wants to take on Iran for all that you said PLUS it will help his Saudi friends. That fight is really theirs, as was Iraq. Bush will do anything for his friends (and nothing for the rest of us). And yes, look for a big escape down paraguay-way. I have nothing against Pelosi at this point & I certainly trust her far more than the dangerous thugs currently occupying the WH. ~~ D.K.
Anon I know you worry about Impeachment Investigations and what that means- we are well within OUR rights to Investigate this Entire Administration, especially one that has Lied to and misused OUR military, and also lied to the International Community ( ahem Powell- UN) this is not a small matter. Military Law does not supercede the Constitution and Bush and Cheney took Oathes to UPHOLD the Constitution, not shred it....Important Hearing Begin this Week that begin Investigations on these very fronts- Russ Feingold and also John Conyers....go to both of the Websites, or read over at Crooks & Liars, these Investigations timed with the Unfolding Plamegate Trial Spell the Perfect Storm... I have been watching and waiting for these to Collide with the Abramoff Case...To reach a Tipping Point of Corruption always requires synchronicity...Have Hope Anon...These fuckers have spent years scaring the crap out of us...we all have each other- we have WE THE PEOPLE 500,000 came to DC, that is a helluva lot of people...WHO does Bush have ??? Barney or Lithium Laura ?
I saw a sign at the march in DC that said:
"Impeachment. It's not just for blowjobs anymore."
It looks more and more like they are all going to hang each other out to dry...sort of a game of musical scapegoats.
Oh Mary , I Love the SIgn...more ideas for next time...
And Poobah- yup- musical scapegoats....hmm, good visual for a future post...
