6. 17 Repugnicans With Spines
That would be the number needed to convict in the Senate. These people are the ones who are this regime's insurance policy and will be unless the pressure on them gets so difficult they're forced to act. But we know this isn't going to happen.

Again, I appreciate the passion and if impeachment were the do-all end-all to ending this ugly occupation and righting all the wrongs in this country, I'd be as outraged as you, or more. But I don't see that happening and that we're just starting to learn about the abuses and crimes here. 6 months ago, did we know how screwed up the DOJ was? And there's a ton of digging that has to be done...this onion is just starting to be peeled.

The accountability to this regime needs to be addressed in a truly criminal, not political fashion. Everyone whose participated in these crimes must be investigated and brought to account for their actions. This won't happen in the House or Senate...or even in our own courts (even though I suspect the DOJ purge will backfire with a vengeance) but in international ones as well.

The verdict of this regime will be written in the history books and in the legacy of a destroyed Repugnican party that has contradicted every major selling point it had and is splintered into growing self interests. The worm truly has turned and there's a bigger picture in play here...one that's taken us from the deepest darkness to the direction of the light...but we're still not there yet.

The people who need to be held accountable right now for propping up the Booosh/Cheney regime are the Senate Repugnicans...and the Liberman Party Of One.

Cheers...
