Buchanan: Bush should be impeached (over Immigration, not Iraq)
by Joe in DC - 8/28/2006 10:39:00 PM


Pat was on CNN today spewing his hate rhetoric. He's apoplectic about the immigration issue and was using the "i-word" against Bush:

BUCHANAN: I think the president is not going to be impeached, but he's guilty of an impeachable offense. The Constitution commands the president of the United States to defend the states from an invasion.

When he himself says six million people have been stopped, we don't know how many have gotten in. Most people think about half that number. You've got an invasion.

He hasn't been enforcing the immigration laws and he hasn't been defending the border against an invasion, John. He ain't going to be impeached, because the Democrats are going along with the program, because both of them are beholden to the same corporate people right down there on K Street who want limitless immigration and who want cheap labor, and who want to be able to go abroad and bring in foreign workers into this United States.

So I think that the president of the United States has been derelict in his duty, unlike Dwight Eisenhower who put together something called "operation wetback" excuse me, on the border when he had a million immigrants coming in from Mexico. He said we have to stop this, he sent down a general to do it, and they deported those folks. Something has happened to the elites in this country if they can't defend America's border.

edit to include:
I think he is a racist bigot, kpete - impeachment is about the only thing I agree with him on...

1. Fine, I'll take it.
The Repugs couldn't find anything other than perjury about a blowjob and they ran with it. If the immigration fiasco is what it takes to bring down the chimp - go for it.

2. Let's impeach Bush for farting in the White House.
I don't really think it's actionable, but let's do it anyway.

7. If the 'fart-related-DNA' on his underpants match the brown residue...
... on the noses of Frist, Lieberman, DeLay, 'Kenny-boy', 'Jack-A', and yes, even Jeff Gannon!!! ...

3. It too friggin late - nothing can be done about it
They wanted "globalization" - now they see the consequences (not Buchanan - he hates anybody darker than his pasty white ass). There is simply no willingness on the part of our elected officials to do anything about immigration. Their money base wants it and nobody (r or d) has the cojones to stand up to their bankers. It would be the end of cheap labor in the US, of super cheap labor in Mexican factories, and the end of their big giant freeway from Mexico to Canada. I'm afraid Pat is right - we'll be a Hispanic country in 100 years. (I don't know if that's good or bad but I believe it's a fact).

8. He is correct and incorrect.
Busholini needs to be Impeached and found guilty of numerous crimes. The Illegal Invasion of Iraq, Abu Grahib, NSA Warrentless Spying, Failing to defend the US Borders, Detainee Rendering, Ghost Detainees and GITMO for starters.

10. Control the borders? Yes! Pick on Mexicans? No!!!
Edited on Tue Aug-29-06 03:23 AM by bananarepublican
Would Pat have preferred an influx of Nazis after WWII? Maybe? Maybe not? The fact is that under 'Operation Paperclip' many Nazis ended up in the good ol' USA.

Should we all step back into the 'way-back-machine', would Pat prefer an influx of known Nazis, or, an equal number of Mexicans of an all-together unknown background?
