Bush: "foolish and fanatical"

larisa tells us what she thinks...

It would be folly indeed to send more troops to Iraq. But I fear Mr. Bush is foolish and fanatical enough to stick by the adage that says, "don't change horses in the middle of the stream," even though the neoconservative horse he's been on is dead and sinking, and pulling both him and the rest of the country to the bottom.

And I'm not at all certain that, at this point, Congress can keep Bush from sinking our ship of state.

i definitely agree with the observation about the powerlessness of congress... even if it had the will to stand up and forcefully oppose our president, given the complete disregard the bush administration has for anything but its own unfettered power, i doubt it would matter... the only thing i can see that would make a difference is for something so blatantly criminal to be revealed, that congress, the joint chiefs, and the courts could no longer ignore it, and the executive branch would fall, to be replaced, as booman has suggested, by a caretaker government...

The real solution to Iraq starts at home in figuring out a constitutional way to remove Bush and Cheney and replace them with a caretaker government. The rationale and details of the Articles of Impeachment are irrelevant. We need 18 Republican Senators to agree, in principle, to a process that will give us a new administration for the end of 2007 and all of 2008. That administration should agree not to seek re-election. Ideally, it would be made up of a Republican and a Democrat and have cabinet members from both parties. That is what the situation requires.

and THAT is my new years wish...
