Can we talk about impeachment now?

Think of all the problems it would solve if it was a twoferone.

1. I'm game

Impeach the ENTIRE administration, get an interim government - for long enough to re do elections and move forward with this evil administration far away from anyone (human or animal) they could possibly harm.

2. I'm game, too.

Wish we could impeach the entire administration. Unfortunately, facts keep getting in the way.

First, we don't control the HOuse. The Republicans aren't going to impeach.

Second, even if the Dems took back the House AND the Senate, impeachment isn't enough to remove an officer from office. She must also be convicted. That requires 2/3's of the Senate. We are never, in the most optimistic scenario, going to get that.

Third, we'd have to impeach them one at a time; you can't impeach an administration, only individual office holders. That would give the next in line time to appoint a vice-president to take his place as he went down. That way the line of succession would never get down to the Democratic Speaker of the House.


Fourth, the MSM would be all over this, obstructing at every turn, digging up dirt on the leaders of the impeachment process, smearing fine, patriotic Americans without pity.

We might be able to impeach Bush, or Cheney, or maybe both, if we take back the House. Something that seems possible, but is far from certain, even if Diebold is eliminated. But a conviction is only a vanishingly small possibility. It would, however, be a powerful symbolic victory just to impeach, or even have a hearing without impeachment. And, of course, payback for Clinton, which would be good.

But the overwhelming probability, IMO, is that we will continue to live under the BFEE regime until 2008. That will be our chance to throw the bastards out.

Let's not miss it. Clark for President.

4. It only takes one representative to introduce articles of impeachment

...and with the clear majority supporting impeachment, the outpouring of support for this representative would be phenomenal. If the American people just had one leader to get behind, and we all shouted loudly at our own representatives, and didn't stop until we got what we wanted...

These are the days that heroes are made.

5. If that happens before Nov. Look for a whitewash. nt
