A Plan Is In Place To Impeach The President

That’s what the Democrats are saying they’ll do if they get control of the House.  They’ll impeach him over the NSA spying (despite the fact that it has helped thwart multiple terror attacks), pre-war intelligence and…um…global warming.

So I guess we voters have to ask ourselves…do we really think Bush should be impeached?  Do we really want to tie up Congress and the President with impeachment hearings when there are more important things we should be focusing our attention on?  Like the war in Iraq?  The war on terror in general?  Nuclear weapons in Iran and North Korea?

For you disheartened conservatives/Republicans who are thinking about sitting home or voting for someone other than a Republican keep in mind that two years of constant impeachment investigations and hearings is the price you’ll pay for your apathy or disillusionment.

I’m not saying the Republicans have earned your vote, I’m saying that as bad as the Republicans have been we can’t afford to put Democrats in power and make it worse.

Did anyone really think the Dems would go away quietly?  I don’t think we’ve seen the half of it.  Just wait and see what happens if they lose the house and senate again.  It’s going to get much, much uglier.

If they win and they do try (or succeed) to impeach the President they’ll be destroyed as a political party.

It wouldn’t be a good thing for the US but it would be very bad for the Dems.

While I certainly wouldn’t go for impeachment I would argue that there was a lot more important business we could’ve been attending to in 1998 as well.

An irrelevant argument.  What the Republicans have done in the past is irrelevant to whether or not the actions of Democrats are justified.

The “you did it too” argument just doesn’t work.

I wasn’t following politics in 1998, and I could care less what happened back then.  What I’m worried about is what this country is going to be focused on for the two years after the election.


The purpose of government shouldn’t be to do good, but simply to refrain from doing evil.

...open rebellion in our country would be an invitation to foreign aggressors.

That fits right into the Dem agenda.


If govt control of the economy were the way to go, the Soviet Union would be the richest, most powerful nation in the history of the world.

Doc & R108—agreed. 

I do believe insurrection is a very likely possibility the more liberlism is marginalized.

I don’t think the fringe lefties(a small but overrepresented faction) don’t have the guts to follow through on their threats; they would be acting rather than talking, if they really believed all their own hyperbole.  I find namecalling is a substitute for action, not a prelude to it.

I say let them try they won’t have the votes to convict him. They would be way over stretching since half of them voted for the war. I am not convinced that the GOP is going to lose the house or the senate. The Liberal media is the ones druming up this theory.

I guess this is a tacit admission that the two years of impeachment nonsense we suffered in the late 90s when we had other, better, things to do lead directly to 9/11?

No it’s making the point the Democrats would be doing it for politcal purposes versus Bill Clinton’s committing a felony while in office.

Whistler,

Oh but in the case of what democrats did when it relates to Mark Foley, it is relevant?

Gimme a break!
