Would it be possible to impeach over election fraud?
Just wondering if there's any hope that this SOB will ever get impeached for the many crimes he's committed while in office.

1. They have to trace it to him. That's the hard part.

2. Why oh why?
Couldn't he be stupid enough to tape his discussions like Nixon did? I mean, he's dumb in every other way.

8. This is true.
"The greatest trick the devil ever pulled" was getting unelected officials like Rove to do his dirty work for him.

If "treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors," as stated in Article II, Section 4, can't be laid at W's feet, we can take heart only in being halfway through The Nightmare.

It's not much, but I'm afraid it's all we got.

4. He will never be impeached
The House is overwhelmingly rethug, and these ain't the same type of republicans who were in the House during Nixon's downfall. He will never be impeached.

5. Don't have to impeach him,
just count the votes, he doesn't have enough, so he gets a one-way map out of DC.

6. I'm assuming the votes can't be counted against him...
With BBV there's no trail, thus nothing to prove he didn't get the votes right? We could only prove the machines were manipulated somehow...

7. They'd have to prove...............
that there WAS voter fraud first. It's easy for us to see it, but concrete proof in a court of law is a different story. THEN you'd have to tie it into Dumbya's knowledge of it. Rove would never do that. As far as the Idiot in Chief is concerned, he thinks he won it fair and square. THEN the question of Congress arises, both controlled by the Slugs and they'd NEVER do anything to bring God's chosen messenger to justice. You see that's MAN'S law, which is always trumped by GOD'S law. Impeachment isn't going to happen, no matter what crime the Idiot Bastard Son commits.

9. Of all the "skills" Karl possesses, his biggest strength
would have to be covering his tracks. Otherwise, he would done jail time already.

10. i dont think so
the biggest strength he has is the unwillingness for those he has wronged to fight him, no holds barred, and the willingness of his party to overlook any crime he commits and never prosecute it.

12. And a country in denial. No matter how many times in the past it has been
Edited on Sun Nov-07-04 09:19 AM by kayell
proven that people in power often commit crimes to stay in power, very few in this country will believe it could happen now. After all, "we are the greatest democracy in the world". To maintain that fiction in their own minds, they have to believe in the integrity of people in power, despite all evidence.

And to avoid the embarassment of knowing they were fooled. One of KKKarls greatest advantages is the fear people have of being proved to be fools.

13. the accurate machine totals are still readable
With BBV there's no trail, thus nothing to prove he didn't get the votes right? We could only prove the machines were manipulated somehow...

If the fraud happened at the central counting servers, the indiidual machines' smart cards are still accurate and intact. a recount on a clean server should still be possible.

14. We need the evidence of voter fraud BEFORE the idiot is inaugurated.
If Bev can do her thing on the Central Tabulator, we can stop this train wreck. I think? Hopefully we won't have to worry about an impeachment that will never happen.
