1. Tis true
but we don't want the Republicans to get all the credit do we?

We must force our Democratic party to IMPEACH! so we can prove that we are the ones that uphold the Constitution. THAT is the way we will win elections 2008.

4. Of course we don't want them getting all the credit, but if we're looking for their support, now is
the time. If they don't support impeachment, their party is done. Of course, I don't have a problem with THAT happening, but I do believe now is the time...

3. I agree. It's the only way out now. It has to be as obvious to them as it is to me
that this cabal has NO INTENTION of doing anything CONGRESS tells them to do. The cabal will create their own Persian Gulf of Tonkin and blame it on Iran. Then, they will blow the freakin' country up. Congress has NOTHING to say about it. The American citizens have NOTHING to say about it...the PSYCHO and VP PSYCHO have already said that. There's no more choices left. IMPEACHMENT is a MUST if Congress wants our Democracy to survive.:( The repukes MUST take the lead on this too. The PSYCHO won't listen to Democrats. That's quite clear.

The republicans will eventually go along unless they want to see their names alongside Bushitler in the history books.

10. Hatch and Bennett --
I wonder if we could convince those two of that. Probably not. I've got so many boiler-plate answers from Bennett, and a couple from Hatch, explaining their (bonehead) stand on certain issues that I complained about, I began asking that they take my comment as simply the opposition and don't bother wasting paper explaining things to me.

I'll write about impeachment, too.

And helderheid, we're choking on the inversion up here, too. Hope you're feeling better!

14. I'm in Cache Valley ...
... about 50 miles north of you, if you live in Ogden. I don't know where I got that idea -- but, DO you live in Ogden? My daughter and I go often to a knitting shop on 25th Street and eat lunch at Applebee's. The shop is The Needlepoint Joint.

13. I don't agree
It's a lot easier to discredit neocons than the traditional Republican party. The last election was a reflection of America's attitude toward neocons. By evolving into their more traditional role Republicans might stand a chance. But I'd prefer they just go away altogether and make room for some benevlonet parties to take their place.

16. You're actually making my point - traditional Republicans in order to save their party will need to
impeach the neocons.

18. I'm thinking you're on the right track...
I think this is what Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid and company have in mind. The Repukes will have to throw Jr., Dick and company under the bus to save their own hides.

24. Uh, the NeoCon tookover already happened. & Rethugs wouldn't do anything like impeachment
to "save" their party.

25. I wouldn't be too sure. Yes, those at the top are NeoCons and they did steal 2 elections and part of
a 3rd, but because of the massive turnout in 2006 with a resounding NO MORE from the American people, I truly believe the "old school" Republicans have an opportunity to take their party back from the NeoCons that took over. Maybe?
