It is not what I would do, it is what I have done. I wrote Nancy Pelosi and told her I want him impeached and removed from office. I threatened to never vote again for a dem if they dont impeach him. I want to encourage them to with hold money but I truly think he would let the troops die there to make a political point. FDR had to let 78,000 die at Bataan simply because there were no ships to get them. George I believe views the troops as less than offal under his feet and their lives have no value to him so he would let them die for a politcal point, in my opinion. Therefor I do not encourage congress to with hold funding. I go on nation.com and sign all their really good petitions with the letters already made up. I am a single mom so I dont have time to write them myself. I encourage everyone I meet to vote and even talk to Republicans about the silliness of invading Iraq. I go to Quaker meetings, I had to start once I heard George was spying on them, to me that meant they had to be good, and tell everyone about the latest petitions to get involved in.

show him his approval ratings on a daily basis. Of couse he doesn’t care what anyone else thinks. No one can seem to get through to him. He’s a one-man show. The best congressmen and representatives can do now is wait out the year. The mop up will be as time consuming as katrina.

I believe George Bush who refers to himself as our president has committed so many crimes against the American people and has greatly damaged our foreign relations and he has not been held accountable. I am concerned that we(United States) are being as seen as the big bully on the playground and some small country that we least expect is going to kick our butts.
What is happening to the democrats when they get into power, like Nancy Pelosi? My fear is that they are being threatened and it scares me.

If he were Catholic, I’d have his priest penalize him 2000 Acts of Contrition and 5000 Hail Mary’s every day…. that might keep him too busy to screw up anything else for our Nation!

I would ask them to start impeachment proceedings against both Bush and Cheney. It might not go anywhere, but would keep them busy defending themselves and no time to start more wars. Remember that this is what they did to Clinton. Of course it won’t do any good to ask. I am from Texas, and have 2 of the most radical right-wingers as senators.

Many of Dubya’s supporters would like to force women to watch videos of developing fetuses before they have abortions. I think Bush (and his wife and daughters), Cheney and Rice should be forced to watch videos of people being blown apart before he makes any decisions related to our troops in Iraq. Everyday. Preferrably, during dinner.

Keep hitting him with bills for people (citizens) who need HELP! AKA, social programs.
It will distract him and force him to not bomb Iran.
It also gets all the brain dead Republicans on record as opposing programs that help the average American citizen.
As for impeachment, the Demos do NOT have the votes to remove Bush and/or Cheney.
So to harp about the fact that they (Demos) cannot or will not remove him is counterproductive and seems to put the Demos in a bad light!!

Yes lets push to impeach!!!I dont care if they dont have the votes, start the process for Goddess sake. I am old enough to remember the Watergate hearings and as the process unfolds, more crimes become visible. Start the process, the Dems already look bad because they look like cowards and are letting Shrub have his way on everything, where is my right to free speech-in the zone is where it is. I want my constitution back, I think I will email Nancy Pelosi right now, and now Blackwater given some contract to do something in the war against drugs even though Erik Prince their CEO tells congress he doesnt have to answer questions because they are a private corporation. Hopefully Blackwater will be gentler with American citizens than they are with Iraqi citizens, and all of this thanks to the Shrub, he and Cheney dont care about the 2008 pres elections because they have already stolen and gutted the government so badly there is nothing left to steal.

I would like to have my congressman/woman tell the president that his legacy is over and for him to stop embrassing the USA by his omnipotence speeches and foot stomping demeanor. He was called a windshield cowboy, becasue he declined to ride a horse, but offered the Mexican President a ride in his Truck. He is a false leader in a trying time.
