DEAD MAN WALKING / GEORGE W BUSH

Politically, George W Bush is a dead man walking with over 60% of American voters personally not liking him. With John McCain hitching his wagon to Bush's coattails ~ the possibility of a massive Democratic sweep in both the House and Senate appear likely in November thus ensuring Bush's political death and disgraceful legacy: Allen L Roland

A new WSJ/NBC poll finds that, increasingly, voters don't like President Bush personally. "By 60% to 30%, they have negative views of him, his worst showing ever." By a majority of 54 percent to 42 percent, "voters say they'd prefer a president 'who will bring greater changes' over one who is ‘more experienced and tested.'"

Providing we have a national election in November and are not under Martial Law ~ the Democrats are on the verge of a  massive landslide victory which many Republicans are beginning to nervously sense.

The country overwhelmingly wants change and Barack Obama is the only true agent of change when compared with the supposedly more experienced and tested John McCain.

The first National debates between Obama and McCain will set the stage for this massive victory and a Obama / Sebelius dream ticket would all but ensure it.

McCain was selected to protect Bush's so-called legacy which is heading toward a major disaster in Iraq ~ where we are not wanted if not hated. 

ABC News polled Iraqis in September of 2007 and found that 79% oppose the occupation, including 80% of Shiites, and 95% of Sunnis.

Another poll conducted in February, 2008, shows that 77% of Iraqis remain opposed to the U.S. occupation, including 77% of Shiites and 95% percent of Sunnis.

As I have said many times, George W Bush will do anything to avoid failure including handing over an illegal and failed war / occupation as well as a devastated economy to the Democrats ~ if they let him.

The Democrats could ensure this mandate for change and a landslide in November if they instituted Impeachment hearings against Bush now ~ which a growing majority of Americans want. For example, an ongoing MSNBC "Live Vote" online poll shows that 89 percent of Americans support Bush's impeachment. The poll has drawn over 686,000 responses thus far. 

Need I remind my readers ~ Impeachment is not a political question. Impeachment is a constitutional duty which Congress resists at the Republic's peril.

Former Attorney General Ramsey Clark states the same thing ~ " Impeachment, a Constitutional duty, is the only way to prevent George W. Bush and his cabal from vastly enlarging the disastrous wars he has already inflicted on the world and the American people. The House of Representatives must quickly consider Bills of Impeachment long overdue, and the Senate must prepare to sit in judgment of President Bush, Vice President Cheney other officers who are implicated."
 

As such, American voters want action by the timid Democrats and if that action is taken ~ George W Bush and his disgraceful legacy will soon find its rightful place in the trash heap of American history.

Perhaps this joke summarizes Bush's shameful economic legacy ~
