Poll question: Who is most responsible for the failure to impeach Bush??
Will the people hold the Republicans responsible in November for neglecting their duty to impeach this SOB in the White House and for blocking the Democrats from doing anything?

1. All of the Above? None of the Above? How about the media?
It's a good questions to ask.

2. I agree, this is a very good question.

Although, I voted for the people.

Not so much because they didn't pressure Congress, but because there are far too many who watch FOX and have no idea that they're supposed to pressure Congress, or for what reason pressure would need to be put on Congress.

7. Yes. The media is the most responsible.
They should be demanding the Democrats act.

6. I say it was the people
for not rioting in the streets every day. I must say I devoted last year to impeachment activism. But there were small numbers of us and even though we got a meeting with our Congressman and the Judiciary commitee, we accomplished nothing more than to have our town hall meeting entered into the official Congressional record.

After my year of activism, I am more pessimistic about politics than ever before.

8. Bush's fault.
He surrounded himself with savvy politicians who know every aspect of this government inside and out. He populated critical posts with people who knew exactly how to blaze the legal trail that allowed him to do what he wanted without ramifications.

We can piss and moan and blame Pelosi or Reed or whoever, but the reality is that Bush's ass is covered against impeachment. Even if the proceedings were to be started, they would fail.

You don't want to hear that, but it's an undeniable truth.
