Impeachment? Ha de frigging ha ha
Edited on Sun Sep-11-05 12:10 PM by Generator
So in honor of Dr. Fate-a Democrat was on the morning talking show-This Week on ABC. Just turned it off-yes before he finished. Obama. Yes, he is very smart, good looking, and articulate. But he wouldn't he ASK for the firing of Brown-said it was enough that he was moved and expected-ha ha-him to resign.

So even if the Dems get air time-they don't realize the peril-they don't. They think it can all be solved through the legislative body in a reasonable matter. They don't get it. The country is going away-the supreme court will be stacked-and another disaster will come and more will die and they will say-oh no blame here. Must move on. Blame is accountablity so it doesn't happen again. You remove the driver if he can't drive.

Ask for impeachment? HA! The only Black in Senate doesn't even think it's necessary to ask for Brown's resignation.

Edited-Sorry-I Know he's far from the only Black on the hill.

1. This is nothing new for Obama, IMO.
He has avoided confrontation whenever possible.

4. The original poster said "the Senate"
Okay?

Personally, I think Obama's a classic example of the short-term memory and faddism of America. Dick Durbin's a goddam hero of the left and decent people, and somehow the flavor of the month is Mr. Popularity himself.

As for impeachment, I don't think it's the greatest idea; I think we should put on a broad-front offensive with combative and deliberate character assassination (based on voting records only) to take back the House. We should then conduct numerous special inquiries on the pre-war intelligence lies, Enron, Plame and all sorts of other things. Junior should be dragged in and put under oath, and all energies should be spent exposing the Republican Party and him personally for the assholes and criminals they are. THAT'S a much better use of limited time than an impeachment that can't get through the Senate.

3. your basic premise is correct. They DON'T get it.
time is running short. With Roberts and another NeoCon to be put on the bench, and you will see the fast, consistent and total destruction of all judicial protections. even if they lose the house or even the senate, by maintaining control over the exec and the judiciary, they are well on their way to dismantling what is left of our country.
