And yet, impeachment is STILL off the table
We have a president who once again has lied, prevaticated et al, to the Public

We have a President that still does whatever the hell he wants

But... the Congress still refuses to do its job

And don't start with the usual excuses

Get unstuck from the process and realize, they will keep doing this until somebody stops them or they destroy the nation, whicb I am now convinced is the goal

So, its been fun while it lasted

Batten down the hatches, the dark night is HERE and NOW

1. 230 years is a pretty good run. Longer than Soviet Union. Might
get a footnote in the history books.

6. The only reason it's dark is because...
...the quitters are battening down all the fucking hatches when they should be helping the rest of us take our country back.

8. At This Point, Articles of Impeachment would be Met by a Declaration of Martial Law
They'd stage some kind of "terra attack" as a pretext and declare martial law if we impeach them.

15. at this point there aren't going to be articles of impeachment unless repubs support them
and that isn't about to happen. So you can stow the tinfoil back in the drawer.

22. No Articles of Impeachment, No End to the War, No Limits to Wiretapping, No Defiance of King George
You are right that there will be no articles of impeachment.
Congress won't end the war.
They will cave in again on FISA.
They will give Bush** everything he wants,
because if they don't, he'll play the Reichstag Fire card and take it anyway.



I think Congress figures fewer people will get hurt if they just give in.

9. Pelosi is doing a 'fabulous' job and there's just no way it will happen.
:eyes: So in late 08, they win the prez, and they have to deal with an illegal occupation that is so fucked up and will be blamed on them? It's so transparent, I just don't get it.

16. No. That's not the point now. It's wresting control away from this moron,
really. I think it has come to that.

18. Also, Bush shouldn't be let off the hook of why we are there in the first place.
There WERE NO WMD. Dems,in their fight back against the proposed never ending war need to reintroduce how we ended up there in the first place.

21. it's un-frigging-believable to me
there must be some real reason, since even the congressional "democrats" don't seem to believe their own flimsy excuses
