Let’s Impeach TWO.

[Octafish]

Hey, America!

Liberty and Liberal are related.



Watch out for those who try to take the first away from you and demonize both you and the second.

So, to stay free and make the world we want, I present the following as a plan of action:

The Logic of Impeachment

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has taken impeachment “off the table,” in line with Official Washington’s view that trying to oust George W. Bush and Dick Cheney would be an unpleasant waste of time. But there is emerging a compelling logic that an unprecedented dual impeachment might be vital to the future of the United States.

If some historic challenge is not made to the extraordinary assertions of power by President Bush and Vice President Cheney, the United States might lose its status as a democratic Republic based on a Constitution that adheres to the twin principles that no one is above the law and everyone is endowed with inalienable rights.

Over the past six-plus years, Bush has trampled on these traditional concepts of liberty and the rule of law time and again, even as he professes his love of freedom and democracy. Indeed, in Bush’s world, the word “freedom” has come to define almost its classical opposite.

Bush’s “freedom” means the right of the Executive to imprison enemies of the state indefinitely without charge and without even the centuries-old right of habeas corpus; Bush’s “freedom” tolerates coercion, torture or what the Founders called “cruel and unusual punishment” to extract confessions from detainees; it countenances surveillance of anyone – citizen and non-citizen alike – without a requirement for judicial review or evidence of probable cause that a crime is being committed; it sees no problem with the government and its private-sector allies teaming up to silence dissent.

Bush’s “freedom” also embraces the notion of a Commander in Chief acting as a quasi-dictator possessing “plenary” – or unlimited – powers in wartime, deciding which human beings on the planet get basic rights and which ones don’t.

Robert Parry’s got the right idea about what to do with Smirk and Sneer.

C’mon, America!
Where are you, We the People?
Your country needs you!

Wake up and smell the Fascism!

Let’s do something about it, before it’s too late.



Judging from the big yawns from across half of America, it may already be too late.

Still, we have to try before even more innocent people are killed and maimed and of their pillaging and destruction of ever larger parts of our world and civilization are irreversible.



Impeaching the bastards is the first step.

Then we throw out every bastard traitor in the Executive, Courts and Congress.

And I mean ALL of Them.

What say You?
