- Impeaching The President In Vermont
  Posted by Orato
  Last month, on the 7th of March, Vermonters in 37 towns across the state backed resolutions to impeach President George W. Bush. The resolution was brought up on the annual town meeting day, and Vermont firmly staked its position at the head of a nationwide grassroots movement to impeach Bush over his handling of the war in Iraq.

- Hagel: Before this is over, you might see calls for his impeachment.
  Posted by Jeff
  "The president says, 'I don't care.' He's not accountable anymore," Hagel says, measuring his words by the syllable and his syllables almost by the letter. "He's not accountable anymore, which isn't totally true. You can impeach him, and before this is over, you might see calls for his impeachment. I don't know. It depends how this goes."

- Americans vote NO on Bush and take Impeachment off the table
  Posted by themelinda
  On December 10th Americans will meet across the country to study the issue of Impeachment, not whether or not it should happen but what to do if Congress fails to do its job. America's balance of powers makes policing the presidency the obligation, on the option, of those sent to Washington this last November 7th.

Bush claims executive privilege on CIA leak

The approval of Mukasey’s appointment was another act of doubling down by the Democrats in Congress. There were warning signs about Mukasey – but the Dems approved the appointment because they were saving the real battle for November.

Kucinich presents Bush impeachment articles on House Floor

I just don’t see a downside to this, & don’t understand the carping about being too late, unrealistic, etc.
We need to hold presidents accountable for committing crimes against humanity, international law, & the US Constitution 1) because it’s the ethical thing to do, & failing to do it amounts to complicity, & 2) because it sets a precedent for future administrations. I believe these considerations should override political expediency.
And as for political expediency, seems to me the best thing for Obama & the worst thing for McCain would be to hold up the misdeeds of this Republican White House to public scrutiny over the next few months.
