Is "Accountability" a Democratic Word?
I'm big on it. I want PROSECUTIONS and IMPEACHMENT.

Right now I don't give a rat's ass who the 2008 presidential candidate is going to be -- I want the folks in office right now -- Hillary, Obama, Biden, et al -- TO DO THEIR DAMN JOBS.

Pick up a newspaper -- apparently there are actually SOME JOURNALISTS OUT THERE WHO HAVE BEEN DOING THEIR jobs because there are e-mails (accidentally sent to the wrong accounts) about Vote Caging (which Conyers is getting copies of), while any idiot with a computer can access the fact that there is PROOF of wrong-doing / law breaking / ignoring of the Constitution, etc. all over the place.

MY TROOPS ARE DYING IN A WAR FOR PROFIT.

WHY ARE THESE PEOPLE -- the ones who put them there and are keeping them there -- STILL COLLECTING A PAYCHECK? WHY AREN'T THEY WORRIED?

Oh, yeah: BECAUSE IMPEACHMENT IS "OFF" THE TABLE, AND IT SEEMS TO BE BUSINESS AS USUAL IN WASHINGTON.

I don't want the Democrats running "against" Bush -- I WANT HIM RUN OUT OF TOWN ON A RAIL.

Preferably INTO JAIL.

NOW. THIS MONTH. NOT "NEXT YEAR." NOW!

And I want the folks who put these people in power so busy with their own criminal defense attorneys that they don't have any more time to RAPE my country and PLUNDER ITS BANK ACCOUNT.

Who do I talk to? Seriously? How many MILLIONS OF VOICES HAVE TO BE RAISED IN A SHOUT ABOUT THIS (28% approval?) before ACCOUNTABILITY becomes IMPORTANT?

The evidence has been gathered already. Just do a "GOOGLE" on the internets and / or ask any of the THOUSANDS of people who've been gathering evidence for the last SIX YEARS to drop it off -- they've been writing BOOKS about this stuff, for heaven's sake!!! Its not like its a big secret! :eyes:

Here's a Clue, Democratic Leadership People:

IF YOU CAN'T DO YOUR DAMN JOB NOW, I'M NOT PROMOTING YOU NEXT YEAR!!!

:argh: :rant:

1. Republicans used it during the Clinton era a lot. They just didn't understand it. nt

2. No, but according to Lakoff, it's a "contested concept."
