We are all horrified, Reverend

Noone would love to see an impeachment proceeding begun against the three you mention more than would I, but we live in a reality.

You seem aware of the methodolgy for impeachment proceedings yet ignore the most basic need, namely a majority of the House must support it to send it forward and a majority of the Senate must be willing to prosecute it successfully.

As the current make up of both Houses leans GOP, and as that party is nothing more or less than a roboticised rubber stamp for the Executive, this talk of impeachment is just premature, at best.

Talk to me after the Democrats have won the House later this year, if indeed they have.

All Christians Should Read This

I wish that many of the people who call themselves Christians would open their eyes and read this. Too many people have been fooled by the Bush/Cheny/Rumsfeld/ propaganda and actually believe these people are Christians. Anybody can call himself a Christian; it is a person's actions that tell the tale. The tales told by this administration have been the kind of twisted horror story that most Christians would actually denounce as depraved if someone attempted to put it onto a screen or in a book. But it's all too real. They have no conscience, no honor, and no respect for human dignity. I was taught in Church and by my Bible that no Christian would EVER behave toward ANY human being the way they have. Christians are not supposed to have that kind of evil and brutatlity in their hearts. I was also taught throughout all my years in school that the United States of American would NEVER, EVER under any circumstances torture ANYBODY for ANY reason. Our nation is supposed to be above that kind behavior. We are supposed to be an example to the rest of the world of justice, fairness and the rule of law. How can we be that when our leaders behave as those three dangerous men have??? It is way past time for them to be impeached and removed from office for high crimes and misdemeanors too almost too numerous to name.

Bring it on!

I thought you were going to tell me where the impeachment key was on my computer, so I could get instant satisfaction. But to no avail...

What I want to know is the ability to impeach senators and house members who support Bush's lying Texass. Certainly voting them out is not enough after their support of these crimes. Especially if they can steal presidential elections why stop there, when the House and Senate can do the same?

It is not about the torture crimes, because going after them for that is like thinking the War was justified in the first place. It is about lying to go to War, and the resulting lie implementing the torture at AbuGhraib and Gitmo.

In the end I think they will end up finding Bush Cheney and Rumsfeld in some hole just like they found Saddam as they keep denying their corruption of democracy.
