Please Spread The Word: Impeachment

It really is amazing how few people know about this move that my favorite Presidential candidate, Dennis Kucinich, to impeach President Bush.  Many of the politicos are too concerned about the political implications.  Democrats are afraid it could cost them the election if the stir the pot, and Republicans simply don't want to throw their Messiah under the bus.

But the reality is this President has lied to us.  Many, many, many, many times.  And not about sex.  About things that have lead to the inexplicable waste of money and the deaths of far too many American soldiers and Iraqi nationals.  And as recently revealed, it is now clear that this administration planted BLANTANT FALSIFICATIONS to link Iraq to Al Qaeda. 

Kucinich, as I've mentioned before, is THE ONLY politician that has stood up for what is right in our Congress to date.  Many of these same fuckers supported ousting Clinton, but they some how justify not wanting to try this twit?!?!  If you ask me, this is the single most unspeakable horror our people have committed as a whole.  Committing murder is awful, but sitting back watching the murder and allowing it to happen with no repercussion is far worse.

If you want to stop sitting back and allowing Bush to rule with impunity, please visit Kucinich's website and sign the petition.  The movement is going to need more support, as the media outlets are blacking it out almost entirely.  For what its worth, you can still get the entire hearing here.  And please, help spread the word.

Kucinich Shows His Balls On The House Floor

Oh, my dear, sweet, Dennis Kucinich! Let me count the ways I love you!

Two days ago, Rep. Dennis Kucinich introduced 35 Articles of Impeachment (PDF) against the tyrannical George W. Bush. Kucinich spent four hours at the podium reading off the charges (I would say allegations, but FFS, they are almost all accurate), knowing full well that Impeachment hearings would never happen. There seems to be mixed feelings on this among the blogosphere of late, some saying that it is a idiotic move that he knew was DOA, others hailing him as a brave soul finally standing up for the people's voice. Personally, I tend to agree with later.

Look, we all know that these aren't going to go anywhere, simply because we have pussyfooting leaders in the Democratic Party right now. Hugging and loving and "turning the other cheek" tactics with this incompetent, despicable faux-leader called Bush, however, does nothing other than prove your inability to enact change or willingness to pursue the right actions in this country. Let him slide merely reinforces his perception that he's doing the correct things in office, meanwhile thousand's of soldier's die on his watch, hundreds of thousands of people lose their jobs/livelihood/homes, and everyone of us feels the crunch of his gas policies (Anyone else think it's a bit odd that his family made their fortune in oil and has close ties to the royal family of Saudi Arabia... I'm just saying)

I've felt for awhile now that, even though Kucinich isn't my rep, he is one of the few the represent my ideals. He was also my choice for president in the primaries, even though I knew there was just no chance of him getting the ticket (and he had already dropped out by the time Illinois rolled around), but that's actually the entire point. We have to stand up for what we believe and call people out on their BS, or we will never see anything we want come to fruition. So count this as my "hat's off" to Dennis Kucinich for yet another job well done. And to the pussyfooting Dem leadership... wake up!
