2007-04-12 16:52:45 UTC
just the fact that the President of the United States,, has admited that he lied,, to invade Iraq,, (a sovereign nation) and implied that the terrorists that attacked America on 9-11 were there,, is reason enough to demand the impeachment of Bush and Cheney,, still repeating these lies on Rush Limbaugh's radio talk show,, should American's not ask them both to step down,, and demand the firing of the shock jock ?

President Bush, the right wing of the GOP, and the propaganda spin machines like Fox News,, (and Hanity, another shock jock) have allowed Osama bin Laden to remain free for more than 5 1/2 years,, and continue to train Terrorists in Pakistan,,, isn't this why the USA is losing the war in Afghanistan too ?

I absolutely agree with you, Bush should be impeached. His performance as president has been shameful. He has repeatedly lied to both congress and the American people. The United States is now hated by most of the world, including our supposed allies. He brought us into a war that only he, and his cronies, are benefitting from. We, as citizens need to send Bush, and all politicians for that matter, a clear message that they are in office ONLY to serve the greater good of the nation. There is no accountability for politicians, because they are the ones who decide what is right and wrong. Where is the outrage? Why is everyone in this country up in arms over a stupid comment made by Imus, but they roll over and play dumb about Bush? We, as the citizens of the greatest nation on Earth, need to get our priorities straight.

Although I find the entire Bush Administration to be moral reprobates, the law doesn't work that way. He can't be fired for insulting our intelligence, unfortunately it's our fault he's in the Oval Office in the first place. He should however, be impeached for the lies he told to get us into Iraq. Also, why was he never called to account over the lies he told concerning Hurricane Katrina. Didn't we all see him on television saying that nobody could have anticipated the breach of the levees. He clearly knew befoe Katrina hit that the levees could not withstand a category 4 hurricane. Yet he sat there on tv and lied his black heart out. Michael Brown claimed to have no idea there were 25,000 desperate people trapped in the astrodome. Ted Koppel had to point it out to him. What was that moron doing? Brown claimed he only learned five days later that this in human catastrophe was occuring. Anderson Cooper knew it was happening, but the head of Fema, whose job it was to know this, was blissfully ignorant. I am so tired of the conservatives lame defenses. Everytime they get caught in something illegal or just plain negligent, their excuse is always, "well I didn't know". Is that an acceptable defense from people who are supposed to be in charge! Reagan was completely ignorant about what Oliver North was doing with the Iran-Contra deals. If our president is so out of the loop that he doesn't know what his subordiantes are doing, clearly it was time for Ronnie to step down and take a long nap. And George H. W. Bush, claimed that he had no idea it was going on either. Who the hell was running the country? A senile B rated actor, and a man who can't speak in complete sentences. And now George the son, is there covering up all the damaging evidence about his daddy. This is absolutely the era of corporations running our government. Just like the movie, the Manchurian candidate. we now have the Halliburton candidate. Dick Cheny thinks he's the CEO of America and that we are his employees, instead of the other way around. What happened to the transparent presidency. Everything from who was Cheney's energy commission to what the president has for dinner is now protected under their perverted interpretation of executive privilege. Basically those two goons are saying "Trust Me" Hell no, we won't trust you! God save us from the conservatives and their cynical view of "family values". This Adminsitration is trying to circumvent Congress. I guess Goerge hasn't read the Constitution lately, he doesn't know that there are THREE branches of government, and boy is he going to be mad when he figures it out. 22 more months people and then we clean house with a vengeance.

I honestly do no longer help Mr. President Bush. His perspectives are so off from my very very own and additionally from the countless polls that I even have seen. i'm a average conservative, yet i'm thoroughly liberal as a techniques by fact the civil circulate is going. as long as there is intolerance and semantics dividing human beings i visit be there attempting to help anybody. Love is greater advantageous than politics. Its additionally lots harder to get rid of him from place of work incredibly for the time of a conflict time. i myself voted for him the 2nd time around by fact if Senator Kerry took place of work we could have complete chaos. think of Bruce Almighty with the respond all sure button on the pc. had to vote against a public liar, of course. do no longer hassle, even in different countries, you're nonetheless granted the comparable allowance to question us, so in case you offend somebody they are those with the difficulty, and that they do no longer ought to respond to your question.

America had a chance to fire Dubya and didn't. Too bad because 4 years were horrible, 8 years will be pathetic. But we get the government we elect and deserve......unless the Supreme Court selects on our behalf!

The president may be stupid but that isn't a reason to impeach him. The fact that he did not tell the American public everything does not mean that he lied, it just means he didn't tell us the whole story. If a president told the whole story about a dangerous situation he would get impeached because he leaked imformation to the press and the enemy about our currently doing to battle terrror and bring the people responsible for the attack upon the U.S. That is something that would get the president impeached.

We must quit calling for the impeachment of officials we disagree with. We are supposed to have three branches of government providing checks and balances on each other. The final check comes every other year when we have federal elections. While I believe this administration has failed us in almost every conceivable way, we are stuck with it until January 2009. While I believe the previous administration failed us in numerous ways, our interests were not served by the circus of impeachment.

Bush "lied" about WMD when the proof was there to support the comment.



Clinton FLAT OUT LIED about getting his willie wet when the proof was there to refute him.



Liberals love to turn the blind eye to their own faults and persecute others. Hillary made racist comments, but she wasn't a "shock Jock" right wing radio host, therefore she still has a job.

you should be banned from Yahoo for insulting my intelligence. Your additional comments just removed all doubt you don't know what the heck your ranting about.
2007-04-12 16:57:21 UTC
He should be fired for "trying to impersonate a president."
2007-04-12 17:20:05 UTC

What Did The Democrats Say About Iraq's WMD JANUARY 30, 2004 | Document Location: http://www.glennbeck.com/news/01302004.shtml



"Without question, we need to disarm Saddam Hussein. He is a brutal, murderous dictator, leading an oppressive regime ... He presents a particularly grievous threat because he is so consistently prone to miscalculation ... And now he is miscalculating America's response to his continued deceit and his consistent grasp for weapons of mass destruction ... So the threat of Saddam Hussein with weapons of mass destruction is real..."

- Sen. John F. Kerry (D, MA), Jan. 23. 2003 | Source



"I will be voting to give the President of the United States the authority to use force -- if necessary -- to disarm Saddam Hussein because I believe that a deadly arsenal of weapons of mass destruction in his hands is a real and grave threat to our security."

- Sen. John F. Kerry (D, MA), Oct. 9, 2002 | Source



"One way or the other, we are determined to deny Iraq the capacity to develop weapons of mass destruction and the missiles to deliver them. That is our bottom line."

- President Clinton, Feb. 4, 1998 | Source



"If Saddam rejects peace and we have to use force, our purpose is clear. We want to seriously diminish the threat posed by Iraq's weapons of mass destruction program."

- President Bill Clinton, Feb. 17, 1998 | Source



"We must stop Saddam from ever again jeopardizing the stability and security of his neighbors with weapons of mass destruction."

- Madeline Albright, Feb 1, 1998 | Source



"He will use those weapons of mass destruction again, as he has ten times since 1983."

- Sandy Berger, Clinton National Security Adviser, Feb, 18, 1998 | Source



"[W]e urge you, after consulting with Congress, and consistent with the U.S. Constitution and laws, to take necessary actions (including, if appropriate, air and missile strikes on suspect Iraqi sites) to respond effectively to the threat posed by Iraq's refusal to end its weapons of mass destruction programs."

Letter to President Clinton.

- (D) Senators Carl Levin, Tom Daschle, John Kerry, others, Oct. 9, 1998 | Source



"Saddam Hussein has been engaged in the development of weapons of mass destruction technology which is a threat to countries in the region and he has made a mockery of the weapons inspection process."

- Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D, CA), Dec. 16, 1998 | Source



"Hussein has ... chosen to spend his money on building weapons of mass destruction and palaces for his cronies."

- Madeline Albright, Clinton Secretary of State, Nov. 10, 1999 | Source



"We begin with the common belief that Saddam Hussein is a tyrant and a threat to the peace and stability of the region. He has ignored the mandate of the United Nations and is building weapons of mass destruction and th! e means of delivering them."

- Sen. Carl Levin (D, MI), Sept. 19, 2002 | Source



"We know that he has stored secret supplies of biological and chemical weapons throughout his country."

- Al Gore, Sept. 23, 2002 | Source



"Iraq's search for weapons of mass destruction has proven impossible to deter and we should assume that it will continue for as long as Saddam is in power."

- Al Gore, Sept. 23, 2002 | Source



"We have known for many years that Saddam Hussein is seeking and developing weapons of mass destruction."

- Sen. Ted Kennedy (D, MA), Sept. 27, 2002 | Source



"The last UN weapons inspectors left Iraq in October of 1998. We are confident that Saddam Hussein retains some stockpiles of chemical and biological weapons, and that he has since embarked on a crash course to build up his chemical and biological warfare capabilities. Intelligence reports indicate that he is seeking nuclear weapons..."

- Sen. Robert Byrd (D, WV), Oct. 3, 2002 | Source



"There is unmistakable evidence that Saddam Hussein is working aggressively to develop nuclear weapons and will likely have nuclear weapons within the next five years ... We also should remember we have always underestimated the progress Saddam has made in development of weapons of mass destruction."

- Sen. Jay Rockefeller (D, WV), Oct 10, 2002 | Source



"In the four years since the inspectors left, intelligence reports show that Saddam Hussein has worked to rebuild his chemical and biological weapons stock, his missile delivery capability, and his nuclear program. He has also given aid, comfort, and sanctuary to terrorists, including al Qaeda members ... It is clear, however, that if left unchecked, Saddam Hussein will continue to increase his capacity to wage biological and chemical warfare, and will keep trying to develop nuclear weapons."

- Sen. Hillary Clinton (D, NY), Oct 10, 2002 | Source



"We are in possession of what I think to be compelling evidence that Saddam Hussein has, and has had for a number of years, a developing capacity for the production and storage of weapons of mass destruction."

- Sen. Bob Graham (D, FL), Dec. 8, 2002 | Source
