Republicans are weak on impeachment.

[John Q. Citizen]

What's with Republicans and impeachment? It's like they are afraid to talk about it. Everyone else knows their guy lied cheated, stole, spyed, wasted, murdered, and did so needlessly. They know it too.

That's what makes them so weak on impeachment.

1. No Shit

4. Well said...

[John Q. Citizen]

9. So why doesn't the left we fry 'em on it?

'cause no shit we don't.

[KitchenWitch]

2. They are not weak on impeachment

They impeached Clinton for a fucking blowjob. They are just weak on impeaching their own guy.

[John Q. Citizen]

5. Maybe we are weak on impeachment? I wonder what would

happen if a whole bunch of people started asking Repos to impeach, or why not?

[KitchenWitch]

7. We need to get control of the House

The Rethugs are not going to impeach on of their own.

[John Q. Citizen]

14. Impeachment as an issue is the way to the house. Not as an end but

as a means.

It highlights the Republican lack of soul, their Lack of basic moral values, their lack of Amnerican core values.

It calls into question the lack of judgrement and oversite in congress.

The Republicans are only safe until we ask them to impeach, because what are they going to say? "No, it's not clear the president lied?" "No, it's not clear the president broke the law?"

Excuse me?

I believe most Americans know we are being had.

So we need to have Republicans speaking out on Impeachment. But if we don't ask, they won't tell.

[KitchenWitch]

15. Republicans are not going to stand up and call for impeachment

no matter what pressure they get from their constituents because, frankly, most of them are just as dirty as * is.

[John Q. Citizen]

17. Which is why I said they are weak on impeachment. We have to ask.

Or they aren't going to tell.

[KitchenWitch]

18. They are in it as deep as Bush is

If they stand up, they will fall as well.

[Inland]

29. Weak on the other I-word, "integrity". nt

[Nutmegger]

3. This should be the '06 mantra

We're weak on terra? Yeah, okay.:eyes:

[DemInDistress]

6. bush is their meal ticket.....nt

[upi402]

8. I like that header!

:toast:

[John Q. Citizen]

19. Thanks. It took me a while to come up with.

[pansypoo53219]

10. the teevee gnews

as long as they shill for their THEIR monster georgie, won't happen.

[John Q. Citizen]

16. Even more formidable is it takes 3/4 vote of the Senate to sustain an

Impeachment.

Often the journey is more important than the destination, grasshopper. We could lose the battle and win the war.

Impeachment is the only constitutional remedy for lying, stealing two timing, murdering, thug criminal low lifes like inhabit our executive branch, so I'm for it.

And I think we should force the issue down the Republicans throat.

Because it's the right thing to do.

11. I Hear Hitler Had a Slight Dislike of Jews

What made him that way?

[magellan]

12. What Republicans are weak on is ethics and morality

They won't impeach Bush** because they don't do diddly squat unless it BENEFITS THEM.

[Tiggeroshii]

13. Well impechment is a very sensitive topic

Not to be used unless they did something REALLY bad, far worse than what you listed above.

You know, like cheating with an intern... :gasp:

[John Q. Citizen]

20. Is impeachment quasi-taboo? Would you ask your Repo Rep the 'I"

question? You know, there's something about asking Republicans to do things you know they aren't going to do that just turns people off.

I'm the same way. It's a heck of a lot easier asking my Demo Senator to do something he isn't going to do than it is to ask my Repo Congressman or Senator to do something they aren't going to do.

[deacon]

21. They are weak on the rule of law- they are weak on national security

they are weak on ethics, they are weak on plans that benefit anyone but themselves.

[KitchenWitch]

22. exactly.

[Road Scholar]

23. I just hope they don't have any impeachment hearings before

November. I'm afraid they will on all these issues and whitewash everything before November.

[Hubert Flottz]

24. The Republicans are Obstructionists!

They need to do the job they were elected to do the deadbeat, unpatriotic, creeps!

[Epiphany4z]

25. Like it matters to them

Look what is going on with Delay.

[Phoebe Loosinhouse]

26. Republicans are weak on Democracy

Republicans are weak on legality
Republicans are weak on the Constitution
Republicans are weak on saving drowning Americans
Republicans are weak on fiscal sanity
Republicans are weak on healthcare

Republicans are weak on any subject that does not contribute directly to them or their co-horts becoming personally richer.

[Independent_Liberal]

27. Is there anything they aren't weak on?

I'd like to know. What have they been strong at? They seem like nothing but a bunch of cowards.

[Phoebe Loosinhouse]

28. They're strong at on media manipulation and wealth transfer. nt

[pat_k]

30. They know IT WILL HAPPEN if they even touch it. . .

Many, many, Republican voters are "Get 'Em! Get 'Em!" people -- and it doesn't much matter who they are "getting," they just revel in accusation and punishment.

If any Republican or Democratic leader comes out STRONG for Impeachment -- accuses the Bush Syndicate of there crimes and demands punishment -- they won't just activate the anti-fascists; they will pull in all those "Get 'Em! Get 'Em!" people (largely white males who identify as Republicans or Libertarians).

If you confront the truth about the Bush Syndicate, Impeachment is a moral imperative.

Bush is breaking the law. There is no way around it. This truth is the third rail and to date even Democratic leaders are reluctant to touch it (e.g., Bayh warning against "making a big deal" of the criminal wiretapping without a warrant).

But the truth gets through. When it does, Impeachment is inevitable.

31. Impeachment is for blowjobs, dummy!

[1620rock]

32. Even if we retake the house...

...what makes you think that the spineless Democrats will impeach??? :shrug:

[SeattleGirl]

33. Don't you think the Rethugs are spineless too?

They rarely stand up to *. And I know, a lot of the things they go along with are things they want, but I think in many cases, they are completely spineless.

You know, if we do get the House back, then I think we -- all of us who care about this country -- have to push the Dems to file articles of impeachment.

Just my 2 cents.

[MadisonProgressive]

34. Because impeachment works both ways

Payback really will be a bitch!
