If Bush is not impeached they will do it again, and again, and again...

[niceypoo]

...because they see it as a free pass. No jail time for bush and everyone gets rich. They see the Dems as consummate wimps. Do all the kleptomania you can pull off then play bipartisan nicey nice with the Dems until you get power back, then completely shut the Dems out and do it all over again. If Bush is allowed to get away with all the crap he has pulled over the last six years then we will eventually see a repeat. Wake up Pelosi, they are already starting to railroad you.

Yes, the Big Crime Theory of government must end -- the theory that if the crime you commit is big enough, they won't dare investigate, seriously.

I just released a film about this. An original DU member creation, that was story-boarded here on DU earlier. It didn't get much of a looking at amongst all the Comedy Central clips on the Video Forum. But is is called BERLIN 9-11 and the link is here:

4. Impeaching bush is not enough.

He is just the tip of the iceberg.The ENTIRE neocon/war profiteer organization needs to be brought down.Unless that is done we will end up in the same position in the future whether we impeach bush or not.
How does that song go: 'Meet the new boss,same as the old boss.'

5. if you don't think you could stop a bush repeat, how can we remove chimpy?

Takes more votes to convict than it does to prevent passage of another "IWR" (whatever the "I" might stand for next time) or to enact legislation rolling back legislative grants of authority to the executive found in the Patriot Act or other laws. If we can't roll those back how in heavens name do you think we can successfully remove chimpy from office?

6. Impeachment is a SENTENCE imposed AFTER investigations are held.

You start by investigating - after some hard truths start coming out, Bush will resign. He couldn't take the rigors of impeachment like Clinton could.
