Never in history has our Constitution been so shamefully disrespected and abused and all this by persons who took a public and legal oath to preserve, protect, and defend it. I'm talking about George W. Bush, Richard B. Cheney, their Republican henchmen, and their Democratic patsies in Congress.
Every time I write my Congressman (are you listening, Mike Thompson?) on this subject, he tells me that the Congress has more important things to do.
Like what?
What more important that preserving our Liberties and our republican form of government? What is more important than honoring your oath to defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic? What is more important than halting the present march to fascism?
We need to demand a full and fair investigation of the dealings of the Bush/Cheney/Rove Administration, identify the miscreants who have lied, misappropriated funds, sanctioned torture, and ruined our reputation as a beacon of liberty. The guilty should be removed from office and tried on criminal charges for their several abuses and infractions.
And NO PARDONS!
