Zeev's Turnips Talk Politics (ZTTP)

[goodluck]

Bush should be impeached for lying and misleading the congress to give him authorization to go into Iraq. We, Republicans and Libertarians should lead the impeachment process and not let the dems get this into a partisan issue.
Noble and wise sentiments, but, unhappily, "fat" chance. Aside from the fact that Republicans have majorities in both houses, they are looking forward to increasing those majorities in Nov, and will never rock the boat. Just last week we were reminded of DeLay's tactics to discipline "his" people in Congress when Texas Democratic Congressman Hall switched parties to Republican because, he said, he could not get funds for education in his district for the sole reason that he was a Democrat. Not that we needed much reminded after the cute Texas redistricting that DeLay engineered, and which was just affirmed in the courts.

O'Neill wasn't misquoted, but of course, the Republicans have their defenses ready, from calling him just another disgruntled fired employee and trotting out Clinton-Gore documents and statements on the necessity of overthrowing Saddam. They'll share a little of the "credit" for that with two guys who aren't running for office this year.
