I support the impeachment of President Bush and Vice President Cheney for the following reasons:
1. Violating the United Nations Charter by launching an illegal “War of Aggression” against Iraq without cause, using fraud to sell the war to Congress and the public, and misusing government funds to begin bombing without Congressional authorization.
Anyone who has been paying attention has heard of ‘Curve Ball’. ‘Curve Ball’ was the Bush Team man of the hour back when we were ramping up for invasion. He was our super secret spy guy, our inside source, our Hussein buster. He was the man that trumped every other god-damned piece– well, probably not quite– of intelligence the world super spy organizations were able to collect about WMDs in Iraq.

Just ask the diplomats who’ve been– or who may be– ordered to work there.
Several hundred foreign service officers participated in the gathering at which several diplomats, backed by the vocal support of their colleagues there, vehemently complained about the prospect of so-called “directed assignments” to Iraq to make up for a lack of volunteers.
“Incoming is coming in every day, rockets are hitting the Green Zone,” said Jack Croddy, a senior foreign service office, referring to the highly fortified area of Baghdad where the embassy is located.
I got the same “Saddam is beating his wife” junk email now published at The Uncooperative Blogger. The analogy employed in this father/son morality myth is so flawed I wanted to rip my hair out when I read it.
The set-up: A man’s son asked why we went to war in Iraq. The man responds by telling a little ad hoc parable. He tells his kid to imagine that “our house and our yard is the United States of America and you are President Bush” and that “every house and yard on this block is a different country.” The little boy, by the way, giggles at pretending to be President Bush. How damned cute.
