robert parry...
goddam it, i get so tired of saying the same things over and over and over, but i suppose that's simply the way of advocating for serious changes... so, here goes, yet again...
every congressperson and every 2008 presidential candidate from BOTH parties ought to be sounding the alarm from every courthouse tower in every county seat in the country... our constitutionally-based, democratic republic is in serious danger and there's not a moment to lose... george and dick not only have to go, every unconstitutional provision that they've put in place to exercise unfettered power has to be EXORCISED prior to 20 january 2009... i don't want ANY of those power levers available to ANY president of ANY party...

If some historic challenge is not made to the extraordinary assertions of power by President Bush and Vice President Cheney, the United States might lose its status as a democratic Republic based on a Constitution that adheres to the twin principles that no one is above the law and everyone is endowed with inalienable rights.
[...]
The current Democratic strategy of fighting and losing legislative battles over symbolic resolutions of disapproval or meaningless votes of no confidence only invites the consolidation of the Bush-Cheney vision of an all-powerful presidency.
The Democratic fecklessness also alienates the only logical allies in the fight to save the Republic, millions of citizens alarmed at the Bush-Cheney power grab.
In my neighborhood in Arlington, Virginia, lawn signs have sprung up reading simply “Impeach Him” or “Impeach Them Both.” No one needs to say who the “him” and the “them” are.
From opinion polls, it’s clear, too, that Americans across the country are furious with Bush and Cheney. Many recognize that Bush and Cheney represent an unparalleled threat to core American principles, such as the concept of inalienable rights.
These millions of Americans are searching for some courageous politicians willing to take the lead. Instead, the people get all-night Iraq War debates that go nowhere – and empty promises that, some day down the road, the Democrats will finally get serious.
