Why impeachment may happen before the 2006 House races

Yeah I know-- impeachment is a long shot- it ain't gonna happen-- we gotta get the house back.

A veneer of democracy

So far the Bush regime has maintained a veneer of a real democracy. And as long as that veneer remains-- they are all vulnerable to impeachment and indictments. At this point in time the BUSH regime has not pulled the trigger on martial law, or some similar power grab. It may be that they cant make the ultimate grab for power without losing what base that is left to the neo-cons. Without the Republican Party the Fascists dint have much in the way of support. SO, I'm guessing that for some reason-- they are not ready-- or are unwilling, at this point in time. And as long as that veneer remains-- they are all venerable.

Republicans in the House have to run for re-election in 2006. It may come to the point where they go after the BUSH Regime-- just to keep their seats in the House, this way republicans maintain power in DC, rather than give it up. If they dint go after BUSH--- the DEM'S may take their House seats and impeach & even Convict.

This just might be an advantage for the forces of Democracy.


Republicans throwing BUSH to the wolves

BUT, ask yourself, to maintain political power under the constraints of maintaining a veneer of a real democracy, does the Republican Party throw BUSH to the wolves? And is it better for the country to have republicans take out the Bush Regime prior to the 2006 Congressional races, possibly mitigating a pendulum swing to the left in the House, in 2006.

In my mind, that is the smart thing to do. but I dint see the Republican Party doing this. I dint see the bold personalities of quality leadership and thinking in the Republican Party. And I dint see a consensus forming quick enough to take advantage of throwing BUSH to the wolves. I dint think the republicans dint have what it takes, but the democrats do.

Merry freaking holidays and a better new year for us all. Bless you and your families and friends.
