. . .for Iran-Contra.
At every opportunity they have taken the path of preemptive surrender.
Like when Clinton compounded the failure of the 100th Congress to impeach by refusing to to act when it was clear that Bush I's actions demanded prosecution for Obstruction of Justice. (http://www.commondreams.org/views06/0511-29.htm">Hey Democrats, Truth Matters1)
Like when Gore's fear of looking like a "sore loser" led him to surrender to the Un-American and Unconstitutional Bush v. Gore edict. When he refused to tell us the truth -- that it is for Congress, not the Court, to judge the validity of the Florida electors; when he refused to fight for us by calling on Congress to Reject the invalid Florida electors on January 6th.
Like when Daschle's fears of being called names led him to support Bush's Authorization to Use Miltary Force, and thus surrender the Congressional power to declare war to a known tyrant.
Like when Kerry refused to fight for the truth and call on Congress to reject the illegal Ohio electors on January 6th, 2005..
Like when 19 of the 45 Democratic Senators who voted "against" Alito on the floor refused to ACTUALLY oppose the nomination by joining in a united filibuster.
Like when the Democratic leadership opted to support the War Criminal Protection Act of 2006.
Like when Pelosi issued her treasonous pledge to keep impeachment "off the table."
Anti-American, "conservatives without conscience" aren't the ones who created our national nightmare. The failure of the "opposition" to stand and fight for the principles they claim to treasure did that.
Bush and Cheney conduct their program of torture in plain sight. They willfully and openly usurp forbidden powers. Without impeachment, Pelosi's declaration of preemptive surrender stands. Failure to impeach stamps the intolerable violations "approved on behalf of the American people."
By refusing to impeach they are endorsing torture. They are declaring "You are Subjects; Not Citizens.Without impeachment, Obama is nothing more than a benevolent dictator.
Our national nightmare IS NOT over.
