Why the Democrats should impeach Bush/Cheney today

[Marleyb]

Yes, Martha, I understand that US Representative John Conyers (D-NY) has filed an “impeachment resolution” (HR 635), plus two mentions for censure (HR 636 and 637) in the House Judiciary Committee. The impeachment resolution lays the foundation for bipartisan impeachment proceedings, which by the way is my first problem with it. Asking the Republicans to impeach Bush/Cheney is like asking the chickens to swallow a two-headed fox. But it’s more than that . . .

The editor of Online Journal, Bev Conover, explained it to you once in “Here We Go Again With The Censure Nonsense”, "Censure is a tool Congress uses to reprimand one of its own, usually for an ethical violation not a prosecutable crime."

Get it. We’ve got a prosecutable crime here, and then some. The Democrats, the Democrats, should properly file for formal articles of impeachment ASAP, like now, as Evan Augustine Peterson III, J.D., also wrote in his recent email to some 89 writers, including the editor and this scribe, on the necessity of impeachment. Then let the Republicans show their colors...

So don’t DeLay, excuse me, delay Miss Nancy (D-CA) and Mr. Harry (D-NV), you-know-who-you-are. Don’t wait for the 2006 elections. And thinking maybe we’ll sweep the House and Senate, in the name of the father, son, and holy polling machine, or maybe we’ll just win one of them or none of them.

Here is your chance to really wake America. Here is your chance to take the true moral high ground to out the criminals, who have been categorically declared such, brazenly admitted such, and been judged by legal scholars and legislators, as well as those 89 journalists and 14 websites, to be legally qualified for impeachment and summary ejection.

Now you can take it to Bush and Cheney, and the mobsters behind them...
