A new poll finds that a plurality of Americans favor plans
to censure President George W. Bush,
while a surprising 42% favor moves to actually impeach the President.

A poll taken March 15, 2006 by American Research Group found that among all adults,
46% favor Senator Russ Feingold's (D-WI) plan to censure President George W. Bush,
while just 44% are opposed.
Approval of the plan grows slightly when the sample is narrowed to voters,
up to 48% in favor of the Senate censuring the sitting president.

Even more shocking is that just 57% of Republicans are opposed to the move,
with 14% still undecided and 29% actually in favor.
Fully 70% of Democrats want to see Bush censured.

More surprising still:
The poll found fully 43% of voters in favor of actually impeaching the President,
with just 50% of voters opposed.
While only 18% of Republicans surveyed wanted to see Bush impeached,
61% of Democrats and 47% of Independents reported they wanted to see the House
move ahead with the Conyers (D-MI) resolution.

The poll, taken March 13-15, had a 3% margin of error.

1. US Senate Democrats are not permitted to read outside sources. DLC hates

that stuff. Reading just confuses the weakminded, spineless brain-dead critters.


Remember, they know SO MUCH MORE inside the bloatway than outside.

2. Surprising? Surprising to who?

It may be surprising to those living in the Washington DC Conventional Wisdom Bubble, but not to me.

3. even my republican associates do not understand what the

democrats in congress are running away from this

like murtha said, congress is so far behind the people they represent

[PATRICK]

4. Leadership sensitivity

This shows that on the leading edge the Democratic party as a whole is being repressed in its desires by its leadership. that is a kind of leadership that believes it is looking out for our interests, I suppose, but it explains why leading at all has become an unpopular topic even when speaking of the Congressional Democrats. As a group. Most of them have actually voiced the same sentiments but repressed themselves from taking the popular actions.

Whatever the fear is maybe they better deal with the fear before deciding to go against their own party.
The "practical" explanations always lead, wisely or not, to more failure, deeper crises, more death and destruction.
