The current President of the United States has so much contempt for the opposition party that he refuses to refer to it by its rightful name.
In 2000 he talked up being a "uniter" and "reaching across the aisle" and "working with Democrats" as he claimed to have done in Texas. But as with everything else we've had to endure from the Decider, it was all a pack of lies thrown our way for partisan advantage.
A real president represents all Americans, not just those from his party, or those who might have been duped into voting for him. A real president understands that he must be able to speak to those Americans who do not agree with him.
He has never been the "president" of the United States, but the "president" of the Republican Party. I cannot believe this sorry specimen, this paramecium, serves in the same office as did Franklin Delano Roosevelt. He isn't worthy of cleaning FDR's bidet. Yet he sneers at the party of Roosevelt, calling it the "Democrat Party," a demeaning, disrespectful twist on the party's name cooked up by the Frank Luntz/Karl Rove smear machine.
George Walker Bush has stolen two elections, lied us into a disastrous war, turned our former allies against us, and tarnished our standing in the eyes of the world. He consciously uses smear tactics that were thought to have died with Joseph McCarthy.
Moveon.org's "General Betray Us" newspaper advertisement did not say anything derogatory about the U.S. military; on the contrary, it wished to sound the alarm to its fellow citizens that this president is abusing the military. The ad pointed out the truth that General David Patraeus was doing the bidding of the current resident of the White House to perpetuate the war, not presenting an unbiased report from the field.
Once again, Bush has shown his utter contempt for the office he holds. He is not our president but the president of the right wing of the Republican Party. Advocates of impeachment have known all along that unless and until Bush is removed from office the nation is in peril.
"I think that impeachment of Bush and the rest of this administration is a wise choice, and I recommend it." Short, sweet, simple, to the point, easy to understand. Going off on a tangent, blar blar de blar, newspaper ad, blar blar blar, something or other blar blar, kind of just confuses the basic statement of the piece.
You can pick your reason for supporting impeachment, there are several, but if'n you really mean it, and stuff, sign on to ye olde

Or, go drink beer and hope it all works out...
Helloo-o-o!
Anybody inside your collective empty skull!?
So, after tanking in poll after poll for two years, losing Congress mid-term, and you think Bush & the Constitutional Wrecking Krewe don't KNOW that the vast majority of Americans (what is it now, 70%?) don't agree with them on Iraq and are fast becoming disillusioned with the rest of their agenda?
You think voters signing up for a newsletter in droves, or even signing up for the Democratic Party in droves matters to them?
You think criticism , no, castigation from virtually every distinguished academic and scientific organization means anything to them?
You think being abandoned by all our former world allies embarrasses them and gives them pause?
You don't think they KNOW at least 51% of Americans IF they were religious, would probably think he has the 666 birthmark under his hair?
They know it!
And they couldn't care less!
Who was it so succinctly revealed the nekkid emperor on live TV saying, " George Bush doesn't care about black people"?
Get a clue, y'all! He doesn't care about white people,either!
He DOESN'T CARE ABOUT AMERICANS! HE DOESN'T CARE ABOUT AMERICA!
He doesn't care one whit what you or I or even the Republican Party thinks, and he'll do everything he can possibly do, and even stuff he legally can't do, to push his self-serving mass-delusional religio-fascist ideals until the last second he leaves office.
He's just not into all that. He's above it all, doing God's will, which is basically whatever his corporate cronies tell him to do.
Want to send a message this crowd gets?
Support a Buy Nothing day. Or, maybe a Buy Nothing Week. Hit them in the pocketbook. It's the only thing they respect.
It sure the hell worked in the 1960's for civil rights. Lots of bigots might not have agreed that blacks needed rights, but they sure did need their business. Boycotts bought instant respect and instant policy change, like nothing else.
Doesn't it dawn on you that by insulting the majority, as you put it, the effectiveness of your point is lost?
I'm sorry, I just have a problem taking anything a 'progressive' says seriously when the first thing he does is insult me and the second thing he does is want me to pay for his health care, education, housing, internet access, ..... the list is endless
arch enemy, his 'bête noire' if you will,
the 'Democrat Party', there's this from
the New Yorker.

I remember Bob Dole using the phrase to annoy,
in a rural, down-home, irritating sort of way.
Hey, it seems to work.
As they say, 'Illigitimatus non carborundum est!'
Just like when General Patton (George Scott) got mad at his bull terrier William, he said "Your name isn't William, it's Willie!"
He has cost the United States huge sums of money, respect and lives.
However. The fact that we knew this, that we watched as
1 - inflamatory propaganda ignited a well-meaning, but undereducated and underinformed "majority",
2 - evidence came out which supported the conclusion that Ohio was stolen in 2004, and furthermore that 2006 was tampered,
3 - Libby walked,
4 - subpoenas are ignored,
5 - Habeas Corpus was revoked,
6 - the Iraq debacle was proved to be All About Money
7 - bla bla bla bla bla bla bla
proves that Bush is in fact the President of all of us. He is the President of The Weak, the Stupid. The President of Fat Dumb and Happy.
So pipe it, pal, and pass me the fries.
lets send bush, the gop and the weaker democrats a message they wont soon forget.
Just like Cindy Sheehan did.
