If Kerry had been elected, what would the impeachment charges have been?
Jaywalking? Failing to wash his hands with soap? Causing 9/11 and Iraq? Nothing would be too absurd for this crowd

5. Maybe insider trading or something on Theresa
as she has a lot of $$, so she might have had some broker somewhere make a mistake, and if so, they can put her in jail for it.

4. Windsurfing. They Rethugs would have criminalized it and then nailed
him on that.

It would have burned their souls to have an intelligent and dedicated public servant in the White House instead of their oil puppett idiot.

6. Speaking French...
that is a hanging offense in some parts of the country. Speaking Spanish carries lesser penalties.

7. Except if it's a recent Spanish version national anthem
that seems to have some penalties, too.

13. That's an executive decision that needs to be made. As you know.

And you're either for it or you're against it. Kerry would be for it.

20. So if Kerry doesn't become President we'll never get the skinny?
Short of becoming President, he'll never have more airtime then he did a year and a half ago. Not a peep. Unless you count his muffled comment, caught by a microphone. Not once did he even suggest any crimes have ever occurred.

You like to say that his message was muted by the media, something I agree with, but calling out the BFEE would have made headlines around the world.

Not a peep.

24. He expected to take office.
And if Kerry doesn't get in, who else can we COUNT on to be an open book president?

11. Katrina
he would not have had enough time to rebuild FEMA and it would have been bad (not as bad) but still bad enough for a Democrat to get poll numbers in the 20's or 30's

15. I don't think so
If Kerry were Pres. he would have been awake during the pre-hurricane conference and would have acted to help N.O. immediately.

22. you forget that if he was president and if Katrina was 1/2 as bad
Edited on Tue May-02-06 09:05 PM by jsamuel
the media/the right/everyone would have blamed him squarely on the shoulders because he is a Dem... and he would have taken responsibility for it and the REPUBLICAN congress would have drawn up impeachment papers that same week...

19. They'd declare that Kerry's anti- war stance
Edited on Tue May-02-06 07:40 PM by LibDemAlways
during the Vietnam era was treasonous and try to make it a retroactive high crime. There's nothing the lowly bastards wouldn't do.

If Gore had been inaugurated following his victory, he'd have been impeached almost immediately for stealing the Presidency.

It's amazing any Democrat will run considering that the assholes are just lying in wait.

23. Does anyone find it odd in the last thirty years
Every Democratic President or Presidential Candidate has been viciously attacked, vilified, had been kept busy with bullshit legal attacks, and has been labeled as America's problem?

Yet, when the truth finally sees the light of day, it's the Republicans who have been committing crimes and screwing America. It's almost like they do not even allow a Democratic White House to fully govern like a Democratic President would, because Republicans are trying to keep a Democratic White House preoccupied with fighting off their attacks. Republicans distract them and taint, so the Democrats never get things changed enough.

They are like the trouble makers, who start fires everywhere else, to distract everyone from what is really going on, while they continue to manipulate things to their advantage and let others suffer the consequences of the fires they started.

28. For being a stringbeaner. They'd say he used his advantage to look
down women's shirts. Or some such thing that could not be verified. They'd also say "he killed at least one man" (though Vietnam would be left out).
