Why Impeachment is a Bad Idea
Democratic leaders say that impeachment is off the table, and I think that is a good thing. It's not that Bush is not arguably guilty of several impeachable offenses, and it's not like the Republicans don't have it coming, but impeachment would be divisive and the Senate would almost certainly fail to convict. And, of course, at the end of the day if Bush were removed from office we would be left with President Dick Cheney. So, let's just forget impeachment and work for a Democratic President in 08. OK, that's settled then.

I hate the spam comments I was getting before word verification.
Impeach both of them! Your idea is a flaming cop-out. They both should be drawn and quartered in public, and the pieces hung up for the vultures.
