Twofer: Articles of Impeachment introduced in Congress and more McCain blunders

Yesterday Dennis Kucinich introduced articles of impeachment against George W. Bush. To no surprise, most of the media ignored this act, and some have been misrepresenting the articles as a "resolution." You can read the story here and see the articles here.

Should Bush and Cheney be impeached? YES, there is little doubt that they have broken laws, lied to our nation, to the world, and, well, the list is endless. Will these articles of impeachment get very far? Don't hold your breath, but at some point, maybe not now, but in the future, Bush will be held accountable for his acts against our nation. Stay tuned.

And of course we have McCain to entertain us as well. Today McCain stated that:

Q: A lot of people now say the surge is working.

McCAIN: Anyone who knows the facts on the ground say that.

Q: If it's working, senator, do you now have a better estimate of when American forces can come home from Iraq?

McCAIN: No, but that's not too important. What's important is the casualties in Iraq. Americans are in South Korea. Americans are in Japan. American troops are in Germany. That's all fine.


It doesn't matter if our troops don't come home? Yes, we have troops in Germany, Japan and other nations, however our soldiers are able to move freely about in those nations. In Iraq our troops are targets, they are blown up, they are attacked, and even one death is too many. Are we in Iraq forever? Shouldn't that matter? McCain doesn't think it matters how long our troops are in Iraq. I think it matters, and I would wager that a majority of Americans also think it matters.

And of course we continue to hear how McCain isn't running for a third Bush term, yet there are those pesky little things like "facts" that get in the way of McCain trying to make himself appear as something he is not. Watch this GREAT MoveOn video to see the truth:



Tell me, please, how McCain is different in any way from Bush. He isn't, and we need to make sure America knows it as well.
