Impeaching Bush, State by State
By Evan Derkacz, AlterNet. Posted April 26, 2006

<snip>

Taking advantage of 'Jefferson's Revenge,' state legislatures have brought impeachment much closer to reality...

<snip>

For those who still believe impeachment's just a pipe dream, there are several key developments to consider beyond this burgeoning state movement. In addition to the hawkish Zbigniew Brzezinski's op-ed in Tuesday's International Herald Tribune warning that an attack on Iran could merit impeachment, Salon's Michelle Goldberg and my colleague Onnesha Roychoudhuri both noted last month that the "i-word" had gone public...

1. Focus on the '06 elections first
thereafter you might think about impeachment. For what? So Cheney can become Pres???

'06 elections are your OUR priority.

2. I'm hoping Uncle Dick will...
...get caught up in Plamegate and resign in disgrace. Fitzgerald hopefully wants Cheney bad and will bag him. We all know Plamegate traces to Cheney, Fitz surely knows it too.

As for our '06 elections, I can't imagine the impeachment movement doing anything but energizing people to get out and vote Democrat---a win win in my opinion.

What still worries me greatly is Diebold, ESS, Sequoia, Triad etc---the non auditable, designated, corporate vote counters. I think they're poised to steal again.

3. I agree
Don't bite off more than you can chew. Congress first, THEN focus on the White House.

Remember, the polls look very good. But we've not won anything yet...

6. Again, I would say...
...(not trying to start an argument here) that as the impeachment movement gathers steam (and it will), the effect will be to energize Dems and will only improve November Dem voter turnout.

5. the vote must be overwhelming so they
will have a harder time stealing the election. i believe they stole the last 3 by small incremental changes. it looks like * has lost any independents that he thought were in the bag and he is on his way to losing the hispanic vote for his party. we DO have to concentrate on 2006 first. hopefully, the cabel will not have destroyed our country totally before then. they are trying their hardest to do so, tho'.

7. I think we can walk and chew gum without...
...falling on our face. I don't see how the impeachment movement could do anything but hurt GOP chances in November. It keeps the "culture of corruption" they've created on everyone's mind and that's good for Dems.
