don't think there has been evidence of 'impeachable offenses' against bush. If there is evidence anywhere - it is against a slew of these top officials - including Cheney.

The pattern of behavior is the problem.

The 'rumor' of a setup is on one single issue. They exhibited this behavior, and intentionally used and repeated known false info (including Cheney) to decieve the country on numerous points. The 60 Minute story with Thielman from a week ago tells the same story (nice repetitive pattern) focusing on the aluminum tubes.

Too bad for the GOP. There is a lot of information coming out, from many sources, that make a documentable pattern of behavior - again on numerous issues related to the buildup of war. This is just one that puts pieces together as a whole for a gestalt. But there are many pieces, and they keep coming out. So even as the GOP is able to spin this piece and that piece, stories keep dribbling out... creating more seeds of doubt in more and more citizens - not the true believers but all of those who out of a sense of national loyalty believed they should support this administration after 911. Expect many more stories over the next year.

We won't see impeachment.

But I think we will continue to see people grow less and less trusting of the newest spin put out by the admin - as the repetitive pattern of behavior makes it harder and harder to remain in full denial. Then we will see "deselection" (as in - no reelection).
