Richard Cohen writes: Fire Bush This Tuesday-WaPo
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A3933-2004Oct27.html

Richard Cohen writes, "I do not write the headlines for my columns. Someone else does. But if I were to write the headline for this one, it would be 'Impeach George Bush.' Of course, I realize there's no chance Congress would impeach the president at this point or under almost any circumstance. It somehow reserves its outrage for lying about sex under oath and not, as now seems clear, the making of war under false pretenses. Say what you will about Bill Clinton, no one died in the White House pantry. The same cannot be said in the larger sense about George Bush. Well over 1,000 Americans and countless more Iraqis have died because the president insisted on going to war... If the man were commanding a ship, he would be relieved of command. If he were the CEO of some big company, the board would offer him a golden parachute - and force him to jump. But in government, it's the people who make those decisions. We get our chance on Tuesday."

1. Cohen was one of the asswipes that hired him in the first place.
Trashed Gore in 2000 like the rest of the Beltway Highscool Clique.

2. and he's carried plenty of water for the chimp since 2000

Would have been MUCH easier if the media had done it's job for the last 4 years instead of pandering to the regime.

Hope its not too little too late.
