When you see a headline that says "Bush friends dropping like flies ..." the next logical question is "when will he?"The latest pol to take a plunge is Australia's prime minister, John Howard. Howard suffered a major defeat on Saturday, losing his reelection bid to Labor Party leader Kevin Rudd.
Howard's defeat, after 11 years in power, follows that of José María Aznar of Spain, and political setbacks that lead to Britain Prime Minister Tony Blair's resignation. And what to all these former-leaders have in common? They were staunch allies of the U.S. invasion of Iraq.
The world "gets it." Even the electorate in this country gets it, sending Republicans packing in the last election. So when is the United States Congress going to "get it" and start formal impeachment proceedings against Vice President Cheney and then President Bush.
The citizen of this country deserve to see these two war-profiteers forced out of office in disgrace.
Why do you think campaigning began last summer for the 2008 presidential election? Because the American public can't wait for this administration's term to end.
Congress will be back in session soon. Email your Representative to tell them you are thankful to live in a democracy that includes an impeachment process to protect its citizens against fascist leaders -- and urge them to use it!

Yes, the electorate gets it, but if the democratic leadership doesn't get it soon, they will win some seats, but they won't get the landslide they could get if they, you know, lead. Impeachment is the only just punishment for the crimes this administration has committed (not that I would object to a visit to The Hague for the lot of them).
I'm with you pissed!
