Why I Believe Bush Must Go
Nixon Was Bad. These Guys Are Worse.By George McGovern
Sunday, January 6, 2008; B01As we enter the eighth year of the Bush-Cheney administration, I have belatedly and painfully concluded that the only honorable course for me is to urge the impeachment of the president and the vice president.
After the 1972 presidential election, I stood clear of calls to impeach President Richard M. Nixon for his misconduct during the campaign. I thought that my joining the impeachment effort would be seen as an expression of personal vengeance toward the president who had defeated me.
Today I have made a different choice.
Of course, there seems to be little bipartisan support for impeachment. The political scene is marked by narrow and sometimes superficial partisanship, especially among Republicans, and a lack of courage and statesmanship on the part of too many Democratic politicians. So the chances of a bipartisan impeachment and conviction are not promising.
But what are the facts?
Bush and Cheney are clearly guilty of numerous impeachable offenses. They have repeatedly violated the Constitution. They have transgressed national and international law. They have lied to the American people time after time. Their conduct and their barbaric policies have reduced our beloved country to a historic low in the eyes of people around the world. These are truly “high crimes and misdemeanors,” to use the constitutional standard.
I read the whole thing. It is amazing. I urge you to do so as well and to pass it on to your friends, family, and enemies.
I have been spending a lot of time today reading about this and a lot of Kucinich related videos and articles. It is pretty fucked up that stuff like this is not getting the air time that it deserves. The mass media wants this war. They make money off of it. They fill up their air time about it.
There is a lot of good information on youtube.com. It is better than the media because ya, the content isn’t 100% controled by corprate whores.

Is your computer just not running the way it should? Does your CD burner just not burn CDs anymore? Do you wish you knew more about your PC or just buy it and it is more confusing than your Aunt Flo?
