3. The only sure fire winner is to demand Impeachment.
Edited on Wed Oct-04-06 12:32 PM by pat_k
How can Americans trust the Democratic Party to stand up to terrorists if our leaders are too frightened to stand up to Bush; too frightened to risk a darn thing to rescue our Constitution?

As long as they fail to challenge rule by signing statement, how do they think they can right the wrongs (including closing the vast chasm between the aristocracy and the rest of the serfs in America) if Bush can just nullify anything they manage to get passed with a signing statement? (Or just put some incompenet in charge to ensure no law that protects our interests is executed or enforced.)

How do they think they can redeem the soul of America in the eyes of the world if they keep declaring "Bush is nuliifying the constitution" with one breath, they "assuring" everyone "But don't worry, we have NO intention of impeaching anyone!

To fail to take extraordinary action in the face of extraordinary violations does nothing but support the fantasy that the violations are just "business as usual."

Just "voting them out" does nothing to say "Your crimes against our constitutional democracy are intolerable -- and we will not tolerate them one more minute."

Impeachment IS Our Positive Agenda!
