John Nichols from The Nation weighed in on his appearance on Scarborough Country this week where they had a discussion about the possibility of a Bush impeachment. Here is a quote from the article posted on CBS News' site:
Former Republican Congressman Joe Scarborough had me on his MSNBC show Monday night to talk about impeachment. It was smart, civil discussion that treated the prospect of impeaching the president as a serious matter. Scarborough took the lead in suggesting that Bush's biggest problem might be that Republicans in the House and Senate who — fearful of the threat Bush poses to their political survival — do not appear to be rallying 'round the president. The host's sentiments were echoed by two other guests, columnist Mike Barnicle and Salon's Joan Walsh.

I'd say our President is in for some real trouble ahead when even a few Republicans are starting to utter the "I word" and Robert Novak is throwing him under the bus.
