Don't you wish we had a Parlamentary form of government?
If ever a government deserved a no confidence vote it's this one.

Let's face it, impeaching Bush wouldn't do any good, we'd still be stuck with Cheney and the rest of the cabinet, not to mention the Republican leadership in Congress.

Can the country survive until next year's elections?

1. Yup. You could never get away with an infantile ***puppet as
President.

4. I'm beginning to warm up to it.
I wasn't always for it because I lived in countries where the gridlock was stifling. With a bunch of parties all disagreeing with each other, ususally nothing got done. But I am beginning to think we really can't afford to have a winner take all system anymore. I also like the idea of the POTUS being required to explain himself to the legislature on a regular basis.
