Impeach NOW: BUSH and CHENEY MUST GO

OK I'm tired. TELL THE GUY with THE button,

HE LOST the last election!




Sorry. THIS IS BULLSHIT.

ABC News (I like their RSS feeds, I don't watch their news, ok?) leads off with THIS STORY here

stating:
A defiant President Bush warned Democrats Tuesday to accept his offer to have top aides testify about the firings of federal prosecutors only privately and not under oath or risk a constitutional showdown from which he would not back down.


Oh YEAH, BRING it on. Unlike CLINTON, HE WILL LOSE the F#&#$%^ Impeachment vote in the SENATE..

And I also say IMPEACH the DAMNED VP at the same time.

As I said PREVIOUSLY... PRESIDENT Pelosi will work fine for me!

Ditch the LYING THIEVING, ANTI-DEMOCRATIC, PRO-TORTURE, PRO-"US-citizen spying" PRESIDENT that thinks HE IS America's answer to the congress and the democrats

Start with the Attorney GENERAL
THEN GO TO CHENEY
THEN remove SECURITY CLEARANCE from CARL ROVE

Just IMPEACH the ENTIRE Presidential Branch for VIOLATING our CONSTITUTION


There. I feel Somewhat better.
Now if the damned congress would JUST get started with this!

Censorship: (Cont'd) In the Public Schools!

Ok. The Bush "Supreme's" (43's ILLEGALLY Stacked and confirmed SUPREME court)
will now decide a very important decision on the rights of Students.

Essentially, we're dealing with the "BONG Hits for Jesus" banner displayed in a School Sanctioned Public parade.

The principal confiscated the 14 foot banner, and suspended the senior.

Read the info HERE

I am sick that this supreme court will hear this case.

Iraq: IS a C.O. (Lt. Ehren Watada) a Hero or a Zero?

OK. I've been reading, working, and smiling. Thus a lack of posts.

UNTIL I saw this OP-ED in the Seattle Post Intelligencer (don't ask why I read it, but I did!)
ROBERT L. JAMIESON Jr. of the Post-Intelligencer has labeled 1st Lt. Ehren Watada, as a shirker, instead of the first American HERO of this war.

I'm NOT going to discuss the Watada case here. Go look HERE for the background!

He was an Eagle Scout at age 15. Now I was never a scout, by my son is, and I have to say, reading the Boy Scout manual, becoming an Eagle Scout at age 15 is an EVENT!

At any rate, he has refused to deploy. The judge declared a mistrial in his court martial yesterday (but will be reopened very soon I believe!)

Click HERE to hear the "Fresh Air with Terri Gross" Interview with Lt. Watada last month.

In a nutshell:

I feel that ROBERT L. JAMIESON's op-ed in the Seattle Post-Intelligencer is biased, and perhaps even (perish the thought: racist?)

I hate to bring up the race card, however, I wonder if this op-ed was influenced by the writer's experiences and past history.

Yes, the two soldiers discussed in the op-ed were different races. Does it matter? Absolutely. Our society is NOT yet perfect (but we HAVE made great strides since the 1960's).

However, if we were to have a serious discussion about our military, jobs, opportunities, and equality, we could have a scathing discussion (and it's been said thousands of times) about why the military as a means for blacks to escape poverty is biased, and perhaps racist.

But this is not the place for THAT discussion...

The point I am attempting to make is that This op-ed, expressing the view of the columnist, attempts to bully the reader into making the decision that Lt. Ehren Watada does not deserve to be considered a hero, or even someone that deserves freedom.

I disagree.
The facts so far point to an ABSOLUTE truth that our country is involved in a WAR that was NOT HONESTLY vetted, not honestly (or fully) planned, and is NOT being waged with honesty.

(Get rid of the "contractor army" as a hint).

I suggest that Lt. Ehren Watada is as much as a national hero, as Paul Bremmer, the man who was in charge of the post invasion "Iraq provisional Authority" who was awarded the Presidential medal of Honor.

My fervent hope is that Lt. Ehren Watada be awarded the CONGRESSIONAL MEDAL of Honor for refusing to deploy.

At any rate, this is the longest letter to an editor I've ever written, and it's a HECK of a lot more satisfying since it doesnt get thrown in the garbage!

Cheers till the next inferno.

Remember:
George W Bush STARTED WW III. We'll be in IRAQ for the next 50 years.
