We are obligated to remove Bush and the entire Bush cabal from the Executive Branch of the United States Government.
We owe it to this guy:
And we owe it to these dead senior citizens:
more ....
We owe it to these people:
And we owe it to this woman who died in the WTC:
We owe it to these dead Iraqi children:
And to these:
And we owe it to this American kid:
And we owe it to all the people who were in the wrong place at the wrong time the last six years:
We owe it to the dead everywhere, killed because of lies from these men:
And we owe it to the each of the human beings who gave their lives for a lie:
We owe it to every person whose flesh melted to the bone from the use of white phosphorous in Iraq.
We owe it to every person who died on 9/11.
We owe it to every person who drowned in New Orleans.
We owe it to everyone who protested the war, KNOWING it was illegal and based on lies.
We owe it to every whistleblower who tried to do the right thing.
We owe it to the world.
We owe it to America itself.
We owe it to our founding fathers.
We owe it to history.
In short, those who say "there's no political upside to impeachment" are engaging in a type of thinking that is profoundly despicable.
It's the kind of thinking that I want absolutely nothing to do with.
Those people are putting politics, and the fear of somehow "looking bad", above nothing short of morality.
They're putting their own fears of losing political capital ahead of their humanity.
And to them I say: I want nothing to do with you.
Exactly how heinous should the crimes be before it becomes obvious to one and all that the removal from office, followed by indictments, convictions, and punishment, be not just an option, not just something "political" but an obligation to humanity?
I submit that the crimes of the Bush cabal are far and above that requirement.
Anyone thinking otherwise is forgetting the ugliness, the inhuman monstrousness, of these criminals' activities the last six years.
There is absolutely no reason, practical, moral, or otherwise, to keep these men in the Executive Branch of our Government.
None whatsoever.
My God, people, we just got a mandate from the entire population of the United States.
Does anyone realize this? We got a mandate. To throw the bums out. That's what this election was all about -- it wasn't even about politics -- it wasn't about left wing versus right wing -- it was about throwing out the liars, the opportunists, the corrupt bastards who hijacked this country.
We owe it to everyone who voted for this change.
The American people have spoken. Why aren't we listening?
UPDATE: Rex Manning provided a link which shows that a recent Newsweek poll found 51% of Americans want impeachment. Link is here:
