“ | The nation would be much more secure and
productive under a Nixon presidency than with Bush. Indeed, has any
administration in our national history been so damaging as the
Bush-Cheney era?
But what are the facts?
Bush and Cheney are clearly guilty of numerous impeachable offenses.

Holy crap, someone is finally going to flesh-out a bill of
particulars for that get-even impeachment the goofy left have been calling for
since January, 2000. You have the floor George.

- They have repeatedly violated the Constitution. They have transgressed
national and international law. They have lied to the American people
time after time. Their conduct and their barbaric policies have reduced
our beloved country to a historic low in the eyes of people around the
world. These are truly "high crimes and misdemeanors," to use the
constitutional standard.

From the beginning, the Bush-Cheney team's assumption of power was the
product of questionable elections that probably should have been
officially challenged -- perhaps even by a congressional investigation.
-
In a more fundamental sense, American democracy has been derailed
throughout the Bush-Cheney regime. The dominant commitment of the
administration has been a murderous, illegal, nonsensical war against Iraq.
- All of this has been done without the declaration of war from Congress
that the Constitution clearly requires, in defiance of the U.N. Charter and in violation of international law.
- The Bush-Cheney team repeatedly deceived Congress, the press and the public into believing that Saddam Hussein
had nuclear arms and other horrifying banned weapons that were an
"imminent threat" to the United States. The administration also led the
public to believe that Iraq was involved in the 9/11 attacks -- another
blatant falsehood. Many times in recent years, I have recalled
Jefferson's observation: "Indeed I tremble for my country when I
reflect that God is just."

Stop the music! Can you find even a single charge
that hasn't been a staple of the Cindy Sheehan-Kos faction for
years? No. McGovern is fishing that same sea of
tarrradiddle. Twisted versions of fact, outright lies, and other
chimeric fantasy we've been served time and again by disgruntled
losers, and not a citation in sight to back any of them up.
McGovern risks his sterling reputation ... . Oh. Hah.
Never mind.
Van Helsing has the McGovern picture du jour.
