We've seen enough to impeach Bush
By Dave Zweifel
The recent disclosures of secret memos of meetings involving British
Prime Minister Tony Blair's staff have underlined just how cynical and
deceitful the people entrusted to lead the United States were in
fabricating intelligence to get this war under way.
It has become clear that they never had any intention of letting the
United Nations try to settle the dispute.
It seems clear now that they had made up their minds nearly a year
before that Saddam Hussein was to be forcibly deposed.
Yet Bush and his lieutenants kept telling the American people that war
would be waged only as a last resort.
As Rep. John Conyers, a Michigan Democrat, said last week, "The
veracity of those statements has - to put it mildly - come into
question."
Because the administration refuses to answer questions about the
so-called Downing Street memo and others that have surfaced since and
because Bush's party controls all of Congress, Conyers had to resort
to a "public forum" to gather testimony on the issue.
In a matter of a few days, more than a half million Americans signed
petitions backing Conyers in urging the president to explain the
memos.
So far, Bush has dismissed it all as "falsehoods" and refused to
comment further.
But the people want answers.
Even those who don't hate Bush don't like being lied to.
Lying presidents need to be impeached.
That's what the Republicans in Congress told us only a few years ago.
So let's get on with it.

Harry hope has made 513 post claiming President Bush decided on forcing a
regime change in Iraq 8 months before the war. 513 post about a nothing
memo, The DNC really thinks you liberals are dumb enough to start believing
it, if they keep re-posting it. They hope you forget the Democrats had
decided on regime change a month before the memo.
WASHINGTON - Key Senate Democrats led by Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle
met Wednesday in one of several recent closed-door meetings to develop their
position on Iraq and its president, Saddam Hussein.
Sen. Joseph Biden, D-Del., who was a key player in the Wednesday powwow,
said he agrees with Gephardt that it is time for a regime change, but asked,
"Then what?"

"Then what?" is a question that never seemed to occur to the administration.
(BTW, what's the source of the above clip? I'd like to read the whole
thing.)

The Dems Fall in Line for Invasion,
Look for Policy Position on Iraq
By Molly Henneberg
Thursday, June 06, 2002
WASHINGTON - Key Senate Democrats led by Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle
met Wednesday in one of several recent closed-door meetings to develop their
position on Iraq and its president, Saddam Hussein.
They emerged without an official statement, but earlier in the day Daschle
offered a clue into their discussions: Universal support to oust Saddam from
power exists within the Democratic caucus.
"The question is when and how and under what circumstances," Daschle said.
The move comes one day after potential Democratic presidential candidate and
House Minority Leader ***** Gephardt gave what was billed as a major foreign
policy address in which he said that, if diplomacy fails, he would back the
Bush administration if it chose to topple the Iraqi despot.
The backing is a marked turnaround for Gephardt, who voted against the use
of force prior to the 1991 Persian Gulf War.
Sen. Joseph Biden, D-Del., who was a key player in the Wednesday powwow,
said he agrees with Gephardt that it is time for a regime change, but asked,
"Then what?"
"I don't know a single informed person who suggests that you can take down
Saddam and not be prepared to stay for two, four, five years to give the
country a chance to be held together," he said.
Sources told Fox News that Democratic members of Congress have recently
contacted Iraqi opposition groups to develop a plan for democracy in Iraq
after Saddam is gone. But military analysts say those who want a perfect
post-Saddam plan are missing the point.
"The number one priority is to really get rid of Saddam, a regime change,
get a democratic government in there, and free the Iraqi people," said
retired Lt. Gen. Tom McInerney, a Fox News contributor.
That plan is currently what the United States is undertaking in Afghanistan.
It ousted the Taliban government and has provided assistance to the country
in trying to develop a democratic government.
While the military regularly calls up reservists for regular rotation in
Kuwait and more are scheduled to report this fall, Bush administration
officials insist there are no plans on the president's desk to take any kind
of military action against Saddam.

If you folks truly had anything to impeach Bush with, you'd have
started proceedings by now. Despite the minority position the
Constitution allows for it. In short, you've got nothing of substance
to go on.
Try being honorable for a change.

Silly boy! <laughing> How do you expect anything of the sort to get
done in a Republican-controlled House?
