It's time to STOP bashing Bush, and START bashing GOPers in Congress.

Bash them by saying that they are just like Bush. Bash them for all the stupid things they do. But whatever you do, be sure to bash the Republicans in both houses of Congress. We should all be concentrating on retaking one, or both houses of Congress THIS YEAR. Congress is up for re-election this year and Bush is not.
Bush's approval ratings are already in the bottom of the trap below the toilet, so there's not much sense in trying to push them further down. It's not in our best interest to try and "pile on", or punish Bush, in spite of all the bad things he continues to do. Bush's term doesn't end until 2009. We have a chance to send a whole bunch of Republican Senators and Representatives home "to spend more time with their families", THIS YEAR. With it, we can overtake one or both houses of Congress.
We have a historical opportunity before us. All indicators point towards Democrats having a chance at sweeping the GOP out of power. We can impeach Bush in 2007, but first we need to take over both houses of Congress THIS YEAR. To do that, we need to defeat the individual candidates. We need to seek out any and every seat that is possibly vulnerable and work our butts off to win those seats.
Further attacks on Bush won't help that cause, unless we use the opportunity to tie the GOP candidate to the sinking Bush ship.
Gather and share photos of your local GOP Congressperson with Bush Jr., Tom DeLay, Trent Lott, Newt Gingrich, or Jack Abramoff. Gather and share quotes from them praising the failed President. Especially, be prepared to point out that they have marched lock-step behind George W. Bush for their entire term in Congress. Point out that they are as responsible as Bush Jr. for all of the failures in our current leadership. It's not just Bush's fault, it's those in Congress who have abetted him too.
It's morning in America...

...MAKE IT HAPPEN!
