Impeach Bush

The man was lost and then he was found and now he's more lost than ever -- and he's taking us into the darkness with him. It's time to remove him.

The letters thread is now closed.

Furthermore...

Here's a link to TruthOut, http://www.truthout.org/docs_2006/030206S.shtml It features a story by Rep. John Conyers, describing a meeting scheduled for last night: "Harper's Magazine is hosting a public forum entitled "Is There a Case for Impeachment?" It will be moderated by Sam Seder of Air America Radio's the Majority Report. I will be on the panel with Lewis H. Lapham, the editor of Harper's and recent author of an article I highly recommend "The Case for Impeachment" (the web article is an excerpt, get the magazine for the whole thing)."

GK is not the only one with some "gravitas" urging impeachment.

Buffoonish

Everyone is trying to sound so convincing with regard to impeachment though from the substance or lack thereof it's clear that George will not be impeached. Why do so many waste their time with such pompous oratories?

Five hundred years from today the Middle Eastern, Persian, Malaysian, Indonesian peoples will mirror social and political customs, the mores and folkways of Western culture, and the Islamic influences of past will be remembered as a nightmare, similar to the progressive Mexican, Central American peoples view of the Mayan religion.

Imagine the Spanish conquistadors of past took the tact of blending in and accommodating instead of what they did. Today we in the twenty-first century would have to read, every so often that they walked another virgin girl up the steps of the temple and then threw her in the fire. You know, they're still doing this ritual to appease the gods, and how dare anyone like George Bush et al., go over there over the next three or four hundred years and tell them to stop it.

Because of the minds and efforts of Republicans Nixon to Reagan to George, the West is going to take over the world five hundred years from today. Because people want McDonalds, denim jeans, only western made designed radios, televisions, automobiles, motorcycles, etc., they will want to go to institutions of higher learning to learn all the things The West has discovered over the last two or three hundred years in order to become doctors, engineers, scientists. Islamic men do nothing of importance in Islamic nations viz a viz the Western non-Democratic Party affiliated men.

An obstacle to bring a better world into existence sooner rather than later is the worthless efforts produced by so many in the Democratic Party. The constant nonsense of time, effort and verbage that spews from the Democratic Party for years, over and over, cackle cackle cackle, ... I mean, 'Wow!'

Check out my web site located on an Apple Computer server in Cupertino, California if anyone wishes to read how me and the Republicans, and yes probably one or two renegade Democrats will pull off this "better world for tomorrow."

Yet More BS from another Liberal ....

This article is such a load of crap .... the persons who put Bush in power and who control the US congress are perfectly happy with his performance and have no intention whatsoever of impeaching him. So why does GK write such rubbish? Beats me. For one thing, he sure isn't about to write anything approaching the truth, which is that the Zionist neo-cons who are running the show have put the US military at the service of Israel and there aren't ten politicians / writers in anything approaching the MSM / who aren't afraid of saying so. If you're afraid to even say the word Jew you can't analyze what's going on in the US, and GK is afraid to say it.

Thanks, Garrison!

You speak the truth! It's very frightening that the guy in the White House is essentially asleep at the wheel. He's ridden the coatails of 9/11 long enough. He's ruining not just our image in the world, but our own image of ourselves as the good guys. He's ruining our economy with his reckless spending on the war. Didn't he study American History? If we learned anything from the war in Viet Nam, it was that sending more and more American young people off to die for a dubious, poorly defined cause, is folly at best, murder at worst; and that throwing money into the black hole of this war will be about as effective as it was in Viet Nam. Thanks, Garrison! Joan Shulind

Iliminate Diebold first, then impeach

You can't impeach Bush without control of the house and that won't happen unless Diebold is removed from the election process, the Democrats and the media have to make this issue known to the public so that Diebold, re districing and other forms of voter manipulation are made illeagal. There has to be a paper trial on the votes. The Dems have to make this isssue loud and clear, then take the House , then impeach; but how can you stop at Bush and leave Cheney in command? He can't command a quail hunt.

Impeachment vs Trial for War Crimes

Why not turn him over to the World Court for war crimes? That would perhaps improve our standing with other countries in the world. George Bush is a war criminal: his support of torture, attack without provocation, the civil war that has caused in Iraq, the instability to the Middle East that has resulted, the unlawful detentions in Guatanamo and who knows where else? I think these are sufficient to arrest him for war crimes.

True, impeachment is the second best option: He has violated the Constitution, lied to the American people so consistently that some now believe those lies ( reminiscent of the early days of the third reich), spied on our phone calls, violated our first amendment rights, put our nation in peril, both econonomically and defensively........... I think that's a start. Yet, with his Republican cronies in the majority, that will not happen any time this year.

The World Court sounds like a plan. It is time for a visit the Hague, Mr. Bush!

Not all Americans think this country to be so great

As a family of four North Europeans we arrived in 1970, the two children grew up here. Their mother still lives here, so do the two daughters. I, the father, left for Europe again and returned to what I thougt my home country. It is not. The two daughters, adults now, took back their original nationality, the mother never nationalized and I will return to my real home, where the Queen will grant me back my real nationality. Yes, I will keep my American Citizenship, because otherwise I would loose the Social Security payments I paid for.

That is all America is good for, economic gain, but loyalty? No, that is now lost. (When I arrived here in 1970, it was a nice country with friendly, considerant people, now Americans are nasty and egotistical).

Oh well.. I have a place to go and I am staying for the time being with my American wife, building the business for economic gain. That is easy here.

Bush is contributing majorly to this cynical view.
