IMPEACHMENT should be Plan B, it’s unfortunately past being Plan A - what the Dem co-conspirators are waiting for I have no idea. Want to support the troops - get them the hell out of where they’ll be killed, anything less is bullsh*t.

The bottom line here is that President Bush told these lawmakers, in so many words, that he would not leave Iraq during his presidency.  George Bush is in extreme denial, and is causing more American blood to be spilled needlessly every day.  The only thing driving Bush is somehow saving his legacy; and he thinks he can do it by miracuously achieving a “victory” in Iraq.  But he’s deluding himself; that train has already left the station, both in terms of “victory”, and in terms of avoiding being rated by future historians as being the worst president in American history.

Can anyone imagine something like this happening if the democrats weren’t back in charge of Congress? There would be NO checks or balances by the republicans since they rubber-stamped everything that the president did.

Isn’t it ridiculous that republicans are willing to wait (again) until the latest general-in-charge, who works for Bush, reports on the success of the purge (excuse me, the surge)? Generals fight - not make policy decisions. And, of course, will the general dare to challenge this administration his boss? Of course not - unless he retires first! That seems to be the courageous pattern of those who disagree - don’t make waves while you still hold a position in this administration - wait til you retire and then writea book complaining about not being heard? Not being heard - was there anything to hear?

How many more attempts will be make to get Bush off the hook for his irresponsible rushing to one-up his daddy?

And sending Cheney to deal with the Arabs - ridiculous, the most mistrusted man in America in the country to represent US interests?
