Impeach Cheney First.
That's all I ask.

Very important we do this in the right order, cause if Cheney becomes the head honcho for even half an hour, he's not givin' it up.

A friendly reminder,

The Plaid Adder

5. Or run around like a chicken with its head cut off.
Squirting blood everywhere and making a hell of a mess.

9. You aren't fighting a chicken my friend
You are fighting a Hydra.

"Heracles courageously attacked the beast, flaying at each head with his sword, (in some versions a scythe) but he soon realized that as one head was severed another grew in its place. Heracles called for help from Iolaus, telling him to bring a flaming torch, and as Heracles cut off the heads one by one from the Hydra, Iolaus cauterized the open wounds with the torch preventing them from growing again. As Heracles fought the writhing monster he was almost stifled by its obnoxious breath, but eventually, with the help of Iolaus, Heracles removed all but one of the Hydras' heads. The one remaining could not be harmed by any weapon, so, picking up his hefty club Heracles crushed it with one mighty blow, he then tore off the head with his bare hands and quickly buried it deep in the ground, placing a huge boulder on the top. After he had killed the Hydra, Heracles dipped the tips of his arrows into the Hydras' blood, which was extremely poisonous, making them deadly."

2. I spend hours awake each night...thinking of this.
You are so right. We need to kill two birds with one stone this time.

3. We need to keep making the connections
between Cheney and DeLay and all the CORRUPT REPUBLICANS. Let's not let the media forget Rove, and Cheney's last Chief of Staff Libby.


Plaid Adder!

6. I don't think the Veep can be impeached. He can be indicted.

10. It's not just the Prez AND the Veep--
It's all the money and brains behind them. This doesn't mean it shouldn't be done. But we MUST realize that that alone won't solve everything, just like deposing Saddam wasn't the end of the war in Iraq.

I totally agree with the Hydra analogy.

11. It won't happen that way
but I would love to see it done that way. Cheney and his pals, I truly believe are the ones pulling the strings. Shrub seems to have neither the brains nor the balls.

12. Tell the truth with his health, I don't think he's gonna be
around that long, especially if the judges start closing in on him. It gotta be stressing him out unless his docs have him on some super tranquilizers.
