Iran: Time has run out...

[Tuesday_Morning]

and the choice is yours.

<snip>

If ... the Democrats showed some leadership, there is one other issue they desperately need to address: Iran.

They should rescind the Iraq authorization of force resolution (Lindorff's reference is to the earlier one, passed right after 9/11 -- both should be burned to a crisp), since Bush uses the authorizations to maintain that he already has authority to attack Iran (and anyone else he chooses). And they should pass resolutions stating that, if Bush attacks Iran in the absence of a Congressional Declaration of War (remember those?), that will be grounds for immediate impeachment.

And they should draft articles of impeachment NOW, just in case they need them. And they should publish them in every major newspaper, and read them on television every night.

I have still more specifics, but that should get them going.

3. How can Americans.....

.....nay, how can American soldiers have confidence in a president that did't just mislead, but out and out lied to take us into a war with the Iraqi insurgents? They can't, and they should be expected to. Bush is a liar, and an incompetent leader, and, quite frankly, a very poor excuse for a human being. Cheney is worse!

If our congressmen are true Americans, they will start impeachment now, not later. The Iran matter is heating up, and we need a leader, not a liar, to go forward. If confrontation with Iran is necessary, it needs to come from someone with credibility, not someone who has a history of lying to us.

4. Last night

Keith Olbermann compared the eerie similarities between Bush's 2002 Iraq rhetoric and his 2007 Iran rhetoric. He asked the question we should all be asking: Where's the evidence on Iran?
