9. In most Americans minds, Iraq is not Vietnam
The driving force behind that brought a "70's" regime change was a growing opposition to the war and for good reason. 58,000 dead is alot of young men and women giving the ultimate sacrifice.

We are no where near that tipping point with the Iraq war. The Downing street memo is important, but it isn't Watergate. Never will be, either.

Hope all you want, Bush isn't going to be impeached. Congress doesn't have the votes or the will.

Just for historical accuracies, Nixon was never impeached. He resigned before Congress would have draw up the charges. The GOP leaders went to him and told him it was coming and better get out before we force you.
