Impeach Bush: Our President is officially out of control.

Governments USA

After considering his latest TV performance in defending his latest scandal, I write today to sound the alarm that our President is officially out of control. Though I had not considered it a serious possibility, after reflecting on it I agree with those who say it is time to get rolling with our impeachment option.

This is not about Bush’s stalwart though factually weak defense of the truly out of control spying on Americans. This is about the "tact" that they decided to use and the fact that they had the full year granted to them by the New York Times to prepare how they would answer the public for their deed.

Make no mistake about how drastic it was either. It was (is) widespread spying on mostly innocent people in hope of nabbing a few evil ones, and it was (and is) being done without any true checks or oversight.

With that being the reality, the defense they could have chosen could have been either a reasonable or a radical one.

Predictably they chose the latter. The simple strategy of it was as obvious as if we were watching it unfold on the TV version of the West Wing.

"Okay, team, it’s go time, let’s go on the offensive! Say damn right we did it and we’re not apolozing, and we’re going to continue to do it whether anyone likes it or not! Remind them some more about 9/11!

"And don’t forget, tell Americans to doubt any political enemies who even want to make anything of it.

"And don’t forget, imply treason and defeatism of any who would be part of shedding light on it too!"

It is arrogance totally unchecked from the one person who holds the most power in his hands of any person in the world - at a time when America and the world are far more volatile and uncertain than ever.

As their nonsense goes on and on, impeachment is where I am today. Starting with the top Neocon (by proxy or not) - the 43rd President of the United States.

Let’s roll, America!

  • As I read this piece I came away with the impression that the author voted for the president, and now he has changed his mind.....am I correct?

    • I am a 60 year old independent, voted for Bush in ’00 mostly because Gore lost me; I easily voted for Kerry in ’04. tlalk about no brainer-lesser of two evils.

  • VOTE to impeach him at MSNBC

  • It ain’t gonna happen, Al. You can rant on and on and on and it just ain’t gonna happen.

    This administration will carry on until its term and the next administration will pick up where this one left off and continue the story.

    Geez, when will you White Americans learn this?

    That MSNBC poll is really a BFD... It is there to pacify the imbeciles into thinking they took some action that will lead to some result. Wow, White America is dumber than dumb.

  • This poor Kernan character needs to take a writing course or something. The poor man’s prose borders on the blithering. It took this Pennsylvanian this long to realize that our President is inadequate and dangerous? He probably voted for Bush. As inarticulate and as frantic as this Kernan writes, I doubt he could lead anybody to anything except perhaps a good tranquilizer.
