George Bush should be impeached

Follow me here, even if you are a Republican. We Impeached a sitting President for getting a blowjob in the White House. How does that compare to a President that killed 1700 soldiers? Whichever of the pat Bush "smirk and shoot" excuses you use, he should be impeached. Either he was:

A: Stupid enough to be duped into believing questionable intelligence from unreliable sources. Thus he's guilty of gross incompetence.

B: Deceitful enough that the British story of fabricated intelligence and coerced analysts is true. Thus, he's guilty of fraud.

No matter your party, you must admit that the Democrats had the fortitude to vote against their own boy Clinton when he lied to the American public. They had the ethical cajones to put it to a hearing and vote. The question I have is, where are the Republicans? It is screamingly obvious at this point that this administration's execution of preemptive warfare was so completely flawed that negligence is whispered in the Capitol. Why have no Republicans come forward to question the decision making in the White House? Shouldn't a decision that cost the USA billions of dollars, thousands of lives, and unestimated global credibility get equal treatment?

It's time we as a nation demand a review of this President. He will not offer one unless forced. This is the first President with an ego so large he is incapable of admitting he ever made any mistakes as President! Certainly a child of priveledge, who has never been held accountable for anything in his entire life should at least be called to the mat to explain the deaths of 1700 American soldiers?

I know we are supposed to trust that our President knows best, but I have not been able to do that since learning that WMD's are as scarce in Iraq as a secure police station. There comes a moment when we must stand up as citizens, and demand from our representatives that they hold themselves and our President accountable for their decisions. In this case, we are allowing the man who could quite possibly do more to harm our nation than any President in 20 years to pass through his term unscathed. At least we stopped that guy who got the blow job from doing anything productive his last year in office. Whew!

Time to stand up people, get pissed, no matter your party. Demand accountability.
