you can impeach cheney first, if you have to choose. i say impeach the whole mob, but you can start anywhere you want.

1. They already said, before the election: NO impeachment hearings

Unless and until the congressional investigations come up with iron-clad high crimes committed by BUSH himself, it makes zero sense to stir the pot when there's a ton of other issues waiting their turn.

3. Like *ush on camera telling he authorized the illegal wiretaps??

Is that IRON CLAD ENOUGH??

2. Impeachment would be a terrible idea.

I'd rather we do something about Iraq, health care, or the economy instead. We don't have any evidence of any crimes committed by anyone other than Libby. Hell, Fitz didn't even think he could put Rove away, and everyone knows he actually leaked it.

5. Thanks. Some sanity.

4. they don't need to use impeachment.

They need to investigate. They can get Bush and Cheney in federal court for treason for outing Ms. Plame.
There's a statute on that. Passed by Daddy Bush, I think.

That's federal crimes, not impeachment. But could also be grounds for impeachment.

6. It's close to Cheney, but still no gold ring...

just like Watergate, gotta get a direct connection to them. Nixon got caught lying about a tape, Clinton got caught ling abvout a blowjob... Underlings don't count-- they're paid to fall on their swords to protect the boss.

Iran-Contra could have nailed Reagan, but he managed to stay "just that far" away from the actual crime and could deny everything. If we're gonna get either, or both, of them, we have to find their fingers very much in the pie.
