"The Case For Impeachment" by Lewis H. Lapham (Harper's Magazine)

[Broadslidin]

Lewis H. Lapham, Editor of Harper's Magazine,
has written a stunning report in the March issue entitled:

The Case for Impeachment - Why We Can No Longer Afford George W. Bush

From Mr. Lapham's report:
"-but conspiracy to commit fraud would seem reason enough
to warrant the President's impeachment."

"Before reading the report,(Rep. John Conyers House Resolution 635)
I wouldn't have expected to find myself thinking
that such a course of action was either likely or possible;
after reading the report,
I don't know why we would run the risk of not impeaching the man.

We have before us in the White House a thief who steals the
country's good name and reputation for his private interest
and personal use;
a liar who seeks to instill in the American people a state of fear;
a televangelist who engages the United States in a
never-ending crusade against all the world's evil,
a wastrel who squanders a vast sum of the nation's wealth
on what turns out to be a recruiting drive certain to multiply
the host of our enemies.

In a word, a criminal-known to be armed and shown to be dangerous."

1. God, I love Lewis Lapham

He may be a scion of an oil family, but he's undoubtedly one of the most elegant scribes of the left.

9. me, too

I once got a letter from Lapham asking me to write something for the magazine, and I was so intimidated by the thought that my words would pass by his eyes that I absolutely blocked and couldn't do it. My dream -- to write for Harpers -- frozen.
