9. here it is

Worse than Watergate? High crimes and misdemeanors justifying the impeachment of George W. Bush, as increasing numbers of Democrats in Washington hope, and, sotto voce, increasing numbers of Republicans—including some of the president's top lieutenants—now fear? Leaders of both parties are acutely aware of the vehemence of anti-Bush sentiment in the country, expressed especially in the increasing number of Americans—nearing 50 percent in some polls—who say they would favor impeachment if the president were proved to have deliberately lied to justify going to war in Iraq.

John Dean, the Watergate conspirator who ultimately shattered the Watergate conspiracy, rendered his precipitous (or perhaps prescient) impeachment verdict on Bush two years ago in the affirmative, without so much as a question mark in choosing the title of his book Worse than Watergate. On March 31, some three decades after he testified at the seminal hearings of the Senate Watergate Committee, Dean reiterated his dark view of Bush's presidency in a congressional hearing that shed more noise than light, and more partisan rancor than genuine inquiry. The ostensible subject: whether Bush should be censured for unconstitutional conduct in ordering electronic surveillance of Americans without a warrant.

Raising the worse-than-Watergate question and demanding unequivocally that Congress seek to answer it is, in fact, overdue and more than justified by ample evidence stacked up from Baghdad back to New Orleans and, of increasing relevance, inside a special prosecutor's office in downtown Washington.

In terms of imminent, meaningful action by the Congress, however, the question of whether the president should be impeached (or, less severely, censured) remains premature. More important, it is essential that the Senate vote—hopefully before the November elections, and with overwhelming support from both parties—to undertake a full investigation of the conduct of the presidency of George W. Bush, along the lines of the Senate Watergate Committee's investigation during the presidency of Richard M. Nixon.

18. might carl bernstein be the one who is writing article on 2004 election

fraud

mark crispin miller stated on 3/31 that a well known name will write an article about 2004 election fraud
he said its based on the conyers report, recent books by a variety of sources
and that this person "knows people" and was a bit unsure but after reading all the evidence has decided it was stolen and will write about it later this month

just seeing your link to carls article made this flash in my mind
i would love it to be so
he has impeccable credentials and i would love to see woodward et al try to directly challenge carl on this

10. Carl Bernstein stands up and shows leadership,

while Bob Woodward is on his knees, under Fuckface's desk, servicing him and hoping for another book contract.

I LOVE CARL BERNSTEIN!

He just laid it out as clearly as it can be laid out, and I think he's a real American hero!

Read his article here: http://www.vanityfair.com/commentary/content/articles/060417roco03

[LSparkle]

Carl is the REAL investigative journalist!

[OldLeftieLawyer]

22. A good plan

There's this crazy guy over in the UK who used to create these things to make me laugh. Alas, he's doing other, more grown-up stuff now, but I'm still laughing.

And so are lots of others.

[Gabi Hayes]

11. Carl was great. We need send his article to ALL.--friend and foe alike.

[SeattleGirl]

13. I was so glad to see Carl on. He is not afraid to tell it like it is

unlike Woodward, who is such an apologist for Bush I can't stand listening to him.

[goclark]

14. Hopefully he can distance himself from Bob CIA Woodward nt

21. Brother Carl Speaks the Truth

And the truth shall set us free.

"A dispassionate look at an untenable situation because some people got in over their
heads and in some cases were less then truthful."

[tlsmith1963]

26. What Does He Think of Woodward Now?

I bet Bernstein can't stand him, because Woodward is such a sellout.
