The Security of our Country is Severely in Danger
With the news that President Bush and his administration knew of impending suicidal airplane attacks on American soil and did nothing about it directly indicates a dangerous ineffectiveness and incompetence to protect America.

The failure to implement internal security for our country compounds our inability to secure America. After 911, few safe guards were implemented to protect our national security. Our boarders are not protected, our nuclear and chemical plants are not adequately protected, our seaports lack security, and our rail systems are not secure.

The person attributed to the horrific atrocities of 911, Osama bin Laden, still walks free today. Our presumed main mission was to seek and capture this terrorist. However, President Bush has done little to find him. The obvious complete lack of concern with regards to bin Laden is apparent in the March 2002 Bush quote “I truly am not that concerned about him. I know he is on the run.” He described the terrorist leader as “marginalized,” and said, “I just don't spend that much time on him.” How is America safer, knowing that this president does not care about the person responsible for 911?

Obviously, the main goal of President was to take down Saddam Hussein. President Bush and his administration fabricated evidence and intelligence to state that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction. Ignoring the American decree of not initiating a war, this administration invaded the sovereign nation of Iraq based on lies. The United Nations Secretary-General Kofi Annan stated that the “US-led invasion of Iraq was an illegal act that contravened the UN charter”. This illegal war had killed or wounded thousands and thousands of Americans and Iraqis. This illegal war has looted over $200 billion dollars from our American Treasury.

This bush administration exercises no diplomacy and insists on calling nations ‘evil-doers’ and ‘axis of evil’. When you force someone or a country into a corner, you literally leave no other recourse but to fight your way out. This is human nature.

And now, North Korea has publicly stated they have nuclear bombs.

The security of our nation is in serious jeopardy and is directly attributable to the incompetence and sinister actions of President Bush and his administration.

We must immediately commence impeachment hearings.

The security of our nation transcends party boundaries. This is not a Democrat or Republican issue. This is an issue facing all Americans.

Failure of our Congress to act on these matters implies a conspiracy and indicates the government controlled by treasonous perpetrators.

I urge all to write or call our leaders and demand an impeachment. We cannot wait till 2008. This president is on the verge of initiating other wars. We must stop these actions before it is to late.

2. I sent this post to both my Senators...
Senator Reid and Senator Ensign.

Please send a letter to *both* of your senators!

This is how we start the impeachment proceedings - I hope.

4. Thanks Fooj!
I am alittle disturbed that more DUers are not acknowledging this post. We have to remove this president. We have all the facts. This is an evil president - the worst and most destructive president we have ever had.

We cannot wait till 2008 - we must act now!

16. I agree
It'd be a hard battle but we have to do this. If the republican Senators and Congressmen care about their people and the people who voted them in then they deserve to be gone as well. This is something that is scary and knowing how paranoid the Korean guy is who knows what could happen. Especially with our boarders so unprotected and the ports not checked. Anything could happen. On the first WTC attack didn't the bomb get through in a crate from a boat?

8. Treason, no doubt. They made 9/11 happen to further their agenda.
And they are keeping Osama around in case they need a new attack/distraction.

These are scary scary people who have the levers of power, but the rethugs think Bush is great so what can we do? They will never impeach him.

9. Great post, SnoopDog
I, and numerous others have known this all along, and have worked to raise awareness for years. I was one of the first to sign an impeachment petition. I'm appalled so many American's have been so blind for so long.
Keep spreading the word and keep up the good work.

11. Thanks my friend...
Yes, this has to be our job - to continually, continually state the atrocities of this evil administration.

I believe this is a problem for all America and indeed transcends political party boundaries. Even repuks live in America - they had to protect their interest as well.

We have to fight - and take back our America.

17. Since you mentioned the Constitution...
The Constitution on the United States of America is the founding document from which we base our existence.

Any, repeat, any law that violates the law of our Constitution is ILLEGAL. Although it is of the utmost importance to protect America, our Constitution can never be violated. There is always a more intelligent and simpler solution to our security problems.

21. P.A.T.R.I.O.T. Acts
should be illegal. They violate and undermine The Constitution.

12. Repuks live in America as well...
A problem yes, but eventually we all look out for ourselves and our family.

This monster we call president is killing us all - the Rebubs will come around... Where else will they live?

Keep fighting - never give in.

14. Many Republicans ARE Waking Up
The more the corruption is exposed, the more Republicans are beginning to see through the lies and deception.
That's right---> "Keep fighting - never give in"

20. As more evidence is brought forward...
This president will go down in history as the only president to knowingly allow the murder of innocent Americans to happen.
