In WWII we were told in no uncertain terms that if we gave information or any sort of aid to the enemy we would be shot. I looked up the Articles of War, and they say more: Even if you do such treasonable things "by neglect" or getting someone else to do it, the punishment will be death or (they didn't tell us that)"such other punishment as" the court may decide on.
Now that the Vice-Commander in Chief, and the responsible Commander in Chief himself were behind the outing of Valerie Plame, it is essential for the honor of our country, for the moral standing of our country, that we impeach these two criminals. (We don't know, and can't know, and I'm sure they didn't know how many of our agents were put into danger, lost their effectiveness or even their lives.)
Admittedly, the Democrats would be left with the huge mess this mafia administration has presented us, but that shouldbe used as an incitement for the Republicans to go along with an impeachment movement: The mess the Democrats might not be able to clean up would be a help to get a Republican elected.
On the other hand, the Democrats have a pretty good panel of presidential candidates who might be encouraged to be a Council of Presidential Candidates to help the Chief of the House run our country for the next year, postponing campaining for at least some months. And doing something for Universal health Care, a better tax bill, a reasonable environmental policy, cleaning up the department of Juistice, and a few other things.
LET'S DO IT!
Well why do the democrats think it is such a bad idea???
What else can be done? Most young idealistic Americans have become apathetic, which is represented in popular media. Yet I try to stay hopeful. I have submitted all sorts of support for articles of impeachment against the dictatorial regime, yet I do not see any support at the higher echelons of government, i.e. Congress. I support the right candidates, yet big money, Big Oil, Big Pharma, etc. rhetoric, and spin always win. I support renewable, clean energy, cleaner cities, better communities, improved health care, education, etc. yet Big Oil and other interests such as faith-based initiatives still control the political process. It is a bad sign when Oprah won't even build schools here, because she knows nobody would even care and it would be useless, but instead build in S. Africa where young people can still appreciate things....Internet is basically allowing expression of views, but is it really empowering? I do not have time to go to Washington, D.C. to march, and would anybody care if I did? Would the process change? I hope people in this election really vote for real change in the process, and support whichever candidate has demonstrated they are not being controlled by PACS, and other interests? Which candidate really comes from grassroots and represents the majority? Boomers are the majority and, from what I have seen, they do not care about the future, but they are the largest voting bloc in this country...they have already had their chance and blew it....anybody who can still travel in this country with a declining dollar and increasing security can see how far we are falling behind.....
Those who would like to see the end of Bush/Cheney, please use this link to a YouTube video. If you agree with what's said there, forward the link to everyone you know. We must keep the discussion about ridding ourselves of the Bush Adminstration alive.
