Couldn't Cheney also be impeached as an "accomplice"? All of this was his idea anyway. His and Rummy's. Surely no one believes GWB is capable of coming up with this policy. He's a moron. Yes, the buck stops with him and he's got to go, but Cheney too. You gotta get Cheney. He's the mind behind all this horror. Any Constitutional scholars in the audience? Could Cheney also be put on trail? Rove would be irrelevant and so would Rummy. They're just hired guns.
The Canadian guy has it right. We DON'T live in a democracy. We live in a police state. There are cameras and listening devices everywhere, stores, banks, public highways, public parks, your local bar, your schools, your churches, your houses. Everybody is spying and watching each other. The walls have ears. There is no privacy. Your most personal information is for sale and under constant surveillance and scrutiny either by private industry and/or the government they've bought off. The government and their right-wing cabal are making sure you don't get out of the consumer line. "Thou shalt not become a citizen but remain a good consumer, or else."
Franklin said that anyone who exchanged their liberties for security, deserved neither.
