For the good of the nation, please resign.

[kentuck]

Forget impeachment. We do not want revenge. We want our country back in competent and sane hands. We want rational people that do not threaten the world with nuclear annihilation. We want to be respected, not out of fear, but out of admiration. We want to be a courageous people, not fearful of "terrorists" or others that might bring us harm. We wish to return to some sense of normalcy. We do not need the paranoid schizophrenia of Mr. Bush.

1. That's the problem; they're insane and irrational, & won't do what's right

[MadMaddie]

2. Kentuck...if we were only so lucky.

He will never resign because he is that defiant.

I predict he will be force ably removed and then he will expect to be pardoned by the next president. However, I submit we must prosecute the whole cabal, everyone involved in this fiasco. And then we should let the Hague prosecute them all.

No mercy-They showed no mercy sending our boys and girls to die for what was in the beginning in Afghanistan a noble cause and then went to Iraq for revenge for * daddy.

No sympathy-Whatever the verdict


And it's not a matter of revenge-In order for America to regain any status in the world...will have to show that we will prosecute criminals who threaten the world even if they are the American President and his cabinet..

6. "and then went to Iraq for revenge for * daddy"

I've felt all along that this is the only time that the idiot has ever told us the truth about anything.

[MadMaddie]

8. I have always said that he doesn't slip up when he is truely being

honest..People say he is just talking off the cuff...I don't believe it.

"Democracy would be easier if it were a dictatorship"

He means exactly what he says.

[Shadder]

3. I was just thinking the same thing.

While listing to KO's special comment. At this point I'd even take deadeye dick over this idiot. The man has to go.

4. Right you are, Kentuck... (Why no "y"???)

[Telly Savalas]

5. Didn't he run in 2000 by claiming he'd be a CEO president?

Maybe if the Honorable Speaker got the House to pass a bill giving the guy a golden parachute, he'd follow the path of his private sector CEO brethren: I came, I fucked things up, I got a giant-ass severance package.

From a purely financial perspective, we'd save billions in the long run.

7. How about we go ahead with impeachment proceedings anyway, and he can resign...

...or be removed before it happens? There are many acceptable means to the end, and we should pursue them all until we get there.

9. Go Kentuck!

Here is the Ltte I sent to both of the major Chicago papers today. Still no word on if they will print it yet.

As I listened to the President’s speech last night I did so with skepticism. Several times in the last six years I have heard contradictory statements from the mouthpieces of this administration. For example the denial that they were “never stay the course” when I heard this from the Presidents lips on several occasions.
With that in mind I was encouraged to hear Mr. Bush almost take responsibility for the mistakes made in the prosecution of the war in Iraq when he said, “The situation in Iraq is unacceptable to the American people - and it is unacceptable to me. Our troops in Iraq have fought bravely. They have done everything we have asked them to do. Where mistakes have been made, the responsibility rests with me.”
That is the only thing that he said last night that I cannot argue with. He is responsible for taking us to war under false pretenses. None of the justifications he espouses for that decision pass a test of the facts of reality. As a veteran I am appalled by his request for additional troops to be exposed to the dangers there. In my opinion he failed to justify why this escalation is in our best interest.
I think that what is in the best interest of our country is for the President to actually take responsibility for his mistakes and resign. It would allow actual leaders to fix the mess that he has gotten us into. It could save untold numbers of additional casualties and more money down the drain. Please help our troops by telling your elected representatives to stop this surge. It is unacceptable that it has taken all of America six years to admit this mistake.

10. Speak. For yourself. I want Revenge. Bush and Cheney should PAY

For All the blood that has been shed

These people need to spend the rest of their lives locked up

[magellan]

11. Indeed, but don't ask. Don't say "please resign".

The bastard and every last one of his collaborators/enablers deserve to be grabbed by the ankles and dragged to trial.

[Samantha]

12. That's been my position

The Republicans must go to Bush* and tell him he must resign and that the votes are there for impeachment. They have the precedent down pat, having executed that maneuver to force Nixon out.

It cannot come quickly enough. And Cheney must go as well.
