Apparently Democratic Party leaders in Vermont on Saturday passed a motion asking Congress to immediately begin impeachment proceedings against President Bush.

I fully agree.  And we should hurry, because he wants to nuke Iran as soon as possible.  A senior Pentagon consultant said that Mr Bush believes that he must do "what no Democrat or Republican, if elected in the future, would have the courage to do," and "that saving Iran is going to be his legacy".

It is frightening to imagine this alcoholic, cocaine-binging failed businessman and failed president crouching like a crazed maniac, shaking and sweating over the button, thinking he has to push it because he is the saviour and God told him to do it.

If God has minions like this, who needs Satan?

Egads, so true! Our whole country is founded on people who fucked up elsewhere! So why didn't Australia end up like us?!

I'm actually alluding to Iran (mostly about the yellowcake scare, but some about this article) in a history paper I'm writing now

it's virtually impossible to get a president impeached in the united states no matter how hard the opposing party tries.

At the very least, we can hope for is enough pressure to insure a resignation a-la Nixon.

oh there is no way Bush will resign. Remember, he has a mandate from GOD! They will have to drag him out kicking and screaming!

BRIGHT EYES LYRICS

"When The President Talks To God"

When the president talks to God
Are the conversations brief or long?
Does he ask to rape our women�s' rights
And send poor farm kids off to die?
Does God suggest an oil hike
When the president talks to God?

When the president talks to God
Are the consonants all hard or soft?
Is he resolute all down the line?
Is every issue black or white?
Does what God say ever change his mind
When the president talks to God?

When the president talks to God
Does he fake that drawl or merely nod?
Agree which convicts should be killed?
Where prisons should be built and filled?
Which voter fraud must be concealed
When the president talks to God?

When the president talks to God
I wonder which one plays the better cop
We should find some jobs. the ghetto's broke
No, they're lazy, George, I say we don't
Just give 'em more liquor stores and dirty coke
That's what God recommends

When the president talks to God
Do they drink near beer and go play golf
While they pick which countries to invade
Which Muslim souls still can be saved?
I guess god just calls a spade a spade
When the president talks to God

When the president talks to God
Does he ever think that maybe he's not?
That that voice is just inside his head
When he kneels next to the presidential bed
Does he ever smell his own bullshit
When the president talks to God?

I doubt it

I doubt it


(Yes, Cheney, who will get booted out faster than his boss. Hell, Cheney will probably go out with Bush, found to be complicit in every one of these fiascos.)

This is so surreal and implausible-seeming I wonder if people will even really think it could happen. Nuclear weapons? Didn't we say we'd never do that? That it's impossible to win a nuclear war?

And why did we give up on North Korea, because they're not Muslim?

If Iran was smart, they'd give NK a call and make some kind of treaty. Oh yeah...that's how WWII started. No one would have seen the Japs and the Germans together, would they?

"Axis of Evil..." Rooselvelt, Bush ain't.

But once again, GO VERMONT!

We won a nuclear war... WWII. We won because no one else had them at the time. Now we're fighting to make sure that no one else ever has them again. Except us. So we always win.

We gave up on NK because we've already lost one war over there and we know we'd lose another one. China would enter of the behalf of NK and kick our asses double-time.

NK and Iran with a surprise Saudia Arabia entering in to whoop on us, who will have scared away anyone who might support us. We're fucked no matter what.

Unless we can impeach the whole damned party. We need a powerful philosopher king to come down and root out the NeoConFundies in such a massive campaign that would make Joe McCarthy cry red tears.

According to America's Hidden War, Bush and Rumsffeld, but particularly Wolfowitz, were all for blowing the fuck out of every single nuclear installation that couldn't be accounted for or guaranteed as safe, including North Korea, Iraq, Iran (there's your axis), Libya, Syria and Pakistan, wiht nuclear tipped bunker busters under the idea that the US was in a state of emergency and imminent threat and this was the only way forward.. The book alledges that most of that 4 moth on the brink of nuclear war between Pakistan and India to dow ith Kashmir was deliberately stretched out to threaten Pakistan with nuclear war on two fronts, in oder to get Mushareff to stop protecting the intelligence forces that had created Al Quaeda and were shuffling them from country to country. Mushareff eventually realised he was fucked when the US secretly dropped troops into all its nuclear power and weapons facilities and began its own audit.
However, at that state, Iran and the US were secretly negotiating which allowed US planes to land in an emergency in Iran, and Iran's govertment was fully supporting the US on its nuclear issues because it hated Pakistan and the Taliban - Shiit vs Pushtans etc.
But something went wrong in the first 6 months of 2002, and ever since relations with Iran have crumbled. But, here's the biggie, the invasion of Iraq, according to this guy, is not set out as a warning signal to Iran - Iran is a stable regime that has helped the US against the Sunnis and would like nothing more than to take over from the US in Iraq and have its Shiite way. The cruncher is the war with Iraq was done because a) Saddam was being a prick which provided a very good way to b) permanently build bases in Iraq to control the Saudies, who are behind Al Quaeda every inch of the way, as opposed to Iran who hates bin Laden, and to prevent the spread of a pan-Islam movement taking hold that could stretch to pakistan and afghanistan in the east, up through uzbekistan, chechnya etc in the north and all the way across through northern africa, including egypt, basically surround Israel and Southern europe - hence the US determination that Turkey be admitted to the EU and held by its laws rather than be rejected and form a larger alliance.
So as long as Iran struts around for a while publicly but plays the game in private no probs. Mind you, the author reckons that the US have had broad plants ready to invade every country since world war two, and as time goes on, some get more specific ;-)
