Congress: By doing nothing, you are giving your tacit approval of Bushco's actions.
Which makes this Congress equally accountable.

By failing to open formal impeachment proceedings against George Bush and Dick Cheney, you are giving them your tacit approval of their actions.

Silence and failure to act is just as bad as doing the crime yourself. Keep that in mind, Debbie Wasserman Schultz, Nancy Pelosi, et al.

they get that. I would have thought they would. Dems are buying the war and the torture and the dismantling of our constitution not to mention a gazillion other crimes committed by BushCo that they try to examine but don't seem to have the guts to really go after. I do NOT get it and I do NOT like it.

3. Who was it that said,
The way for evil to succeed is for good men to do nothing? I didn't put quotation marks around it because I am not sure of the exact wording but that is the essence..
