"I for Impeachment": Is it Time????

[Totally Committed]

Remember, Remember,

The Eleventh of September...

Whether terrorist action,

or Treasonous plot.

I know of no reason why those who died

because Bush and Cheney lied

should EVER be forgot.

Is it time to impeach Bush and/or Cheney?

1. Did you make the I poster? It's great. I'm going to cross-post to my art blog later.

2. No, I'm not that talented!

I found it online, just as-is.

5. I support Nancy Pelosi -and I suspect her political acumen is greater than

the collective wisdom of DU.

Heresy, I know.

9. "Impeachment is not on the table" Showed what she doesn't Know

Not much of a statement from the person that gained the most to become the first Woman speaker ,she wasn't sent there to get along ,but to get it done ,she has done nothing.Maybe this will help ,some more collective wisdom.http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/acumen

10. I have found Ms. Pelosi's position on this to be extremely disappointing, and

frustrating. I am angered every time I think about it.

12. That is what we were told when DEMS voted for Bush's war too: "They know something you dont."

That is what we were told when DEMS refused to filibuster Alito, when they refused to respond to the SBVs, when they refused to investigate the Downing Street Memo, when they refused to talk about investigating election fraud, etc,etc,etc.

"You silly citizens- the career politicians know more than you do..." usually said right before some crushing strategic defeat of the DEMS (as usual)

It was bull crap then and it's bull crap now.

16. Yes, the people who chose to "keep their powder dry" rather than filibuster a

fascist Supreme Court nominee and in so doing, call the Republicans' nuclear option bluff-- they have great political acumen. They gave up one of their key duties in exchange for retaining a procedural move they had no intention of using themselves, while their opposition would be certain to use it relentlessly.

That's some really sharp political strategy. It's a good thing they didn't listen to the dummies around here who said they should function as an opposition party; that fighting is not a way of spending political capital, but rather the method of attaining it.

Good thing we've got the strategic geniuses in place, who refuse to exercise their power to set the agenda even today, and adopt every GOP frame that's tossed their way. The Julius Caesar of the political world, that's our Nancy.

[warren pease]

23. Just curious... examples of this political acumen she's allegedly exhibited?

Anyway, what's she done that's indicative of her acumen? I'm really willing to be convinced, or at least informed. Thus far, all I see is a clean record of bowing to BushCo, starting by voluntarily giving up her most powerful weapon and getting absolutely nothing in return.

As one result of that move, dems keep doing battle with the GOP -- if battle is the right word for accommodation, capitulation and subservience -- armed with a rusty razor while the GOP shows up with M-4s and surface-to-surface missiles.

And as an aside, I submit the collective wisdom of DU is nothing to be ignored or demeaned. I don't think we're organized enough to ever become an official progressive think tank, but the right elements are certainly here. Smart, creative, funny, wise people abound.

6. Wait until they are out of office, then send the to the Haque (n/t)

[orpupilofnature57]

8. Who doesn't get it it ? the 16% and those who aspire to be like them.

thats about 29%.Oh ya then theres our representatives ,if they don't start getting it, they will git.

[Dr Fate]

11. Forget it- the DLCers & DEM Blue Dogs are not smart enough or brave enough to make it happen.

Even if the folks who controlled the party really were opposed to Bush's war and how we got there (Hint- they are not)they would bungle it- and they know it.

They know nothing of strategy, and even if they did, they would never use it to attack a fellow conservative in a meaningful way...

[Totally Committed]

41. I agree with you.

Their idea of "strategy" is "bi-partisanship" on economic bills designed to aid the corporations ahead of the people. And, they are given corporate $$$ to help them keep getting elected. It's a vicious circle, but one that is, more and more, keeping US out of the decision-making or consideration while decisions are made.

We are the worker ants for this colony, and that's all we'll ever be to them.

Any ideas how we can change that?

13. No, it's not time -- it's way past time. But do it now.

Later is better than never.

14. It has been time for years now. - n/t

17. His being Elected was Impeachable!

[Marr]

15. It's way past time for impeachment, but we're further from it than ever.

Yesterday the Democrats in Congress proved to me that they are either completely out of touch with popular opinion, or operating under the mistaken impression that they are our masters rather than our servants.

[AtomicKitten]

18. It's not only time to impeach, it's the ONLY way to stop this war.

[orpupilofnature57]

19. I'm afraid their hinged on each other, I'm afraid because 51%

of our government is afraid, of what I don't know ,and thats what scares me shitless.

[AtomicKitten]

22. The Democrats are going to have to pull up their socks and fight.

It is frustrating with D.C. marinating in the felonies of this administration. Impeachment is possible on a number of different charges. The only thing missing are the balls to just do it.

[Totally Committed]

28. Which Democrats?

Us or that sorry mess we've elected to supposedly represent us?

I see the part about the missing balls, so I'm assuming it's the electeds... in which case I won't hold my breath. ;)

37. Who are these people?

I gave it til September, and now I just want to give them a pointy cowboy boot up the behind.

We need a leader. There is no leader of the Democratic Party. The wannabees are too busy running for president. Boot-^-arse.

I so want Al Gore to step in and make the crazy go away.

[MissWaverly]

20. Way Past Time

the fact that they continue to force the Iraqis to accept the Blackwater mercenaries after Maliki asked them to leave, it's a
mockery, a total mockery that we liberated Iraq.

[orpupilofnature57]

21. Thats his biggest Offense " Mockery " in every way.

Conservatives ,Christians ,Patriots and responsible Managers everywhere.

[MissWaverly]

27. yes, esp. what he said about the mercenaries dodging oversight

how it was convenient, there were innocent people shot to death and he's chortling over the fact that
no one will be held accountable, and the Senate is voting to reprimand Moveon over an ad.

[orpupilofnature57]

29. Is Joe Mccarthy alive and well?

[MissWaverly]

36. Yes, he would have made Joe McCarthy proud

He was another one who destroyed people lives with information in sealed envelopes and secret testimony.

[Swamp Rat]

24. IMPEACH!!

[SalmonChantedEvening]

26. NOW!

My bro :pals:

[lateo]

25. Not only is it too late for impeachment

It will never happen. The Democrats in Congress would never vote for it.

[slipslidingaway]

30. Start with Cheney K&R n/t

[Vidar]

31. Should have been done in 2006, but now will do.

[bobthedrummer]

32. Let there be no misunderstanding, yes-that was part of the message WE sent last November

IMPEACH CHENEY FIRST

[Totally Committed]

33. I don't think they got the message....

Do you?

TC

[bobthedrummer]

35. They ignored US imo TC

IMPEACH CHENEY FIRST

[Totally Committed]

39. I agree with you 100% -- They DID ignore us!

So, got any idea what the hell we do about it?

It seems as though we now have an unresponsive Congress, only doing what they want until it's time to get elected. THEN they want our vote.

Any ideas?

[MoonRiver]

34. Hell yes, and what a wonderful OP!

38. "Approval of Congress" Would Skyrocket -- We'd Be "Creating Democrats"

The majority who oppose Iraq know full well that dumping bushcheney is the only possible way to end the war.

Masses of independents and the unengaged would rush to the Democratic Party -- permanently.

The beltway-blinded strategerists still obsess about their white whale of that last half percent of "swing voters," never seeing the bigger picture.

Only Impeachment ... has "jackpot" written all over it.

It IS our positive agenda.

It is our ONLY moral, patriotic, (and legal, legislative, electoral, diplomatic...) option.

Get on with it.
