Two comments:
1. I am appalled at Mr. Kucinich’s campaigning skills. Rather, I am embarrassed, because I support his politics and admire his integrity. He was on CNN today and Suzanne Malveaux asked him upfront about the Cheney impeachment, whether he thought he could actually get it or if it was symbolic. He had the opportunity to tell people to contact Pelosi or their local reps, but aside from a brief mentioning of some progress, he just went on with this cheesy, cartoon-like campaigning rhetoric. In the end, she actually helped him out.

2. Is impeachment of both George and Cheney a good idea? If it happened immediately, we’d have a solid year of President Pelosi and the 2008 election would put a Republican in every available seat in the government.

Calm down, eat your Pablum, burp and go take your nappy.  All of you grumpy people out there must remember; if you want to be happy, you gotta take your nappy.

What more could you possibly ask for?

Wasn’t this the same man who, as Governor of Texas, refused to commute the death sentence of Karla Faye Tucker, despite world wide protest.

Yep Chris...very same dude. He also refused to meet with the sister of James Byrd, the African-American man who was tied to the back of a pick-up truck by 3 fairly typical white guys, (at least for a place like Jasper) and dragged to his death. Just for kicks.

His sister had flown over from somewhere in Hawaii, well into a difficult pregnancy, to talk with the shrub about creating some anti-hate crime legislation in the “great” state of Texas. The appointment and everything had been set-up well in advance. When she arrived, he wouldn’t even see her. Told his sec to tell her he was busy.

Besides, why would Texas need such a thing, when everybody’s so “friendly” down there? And, they all have their own guns, so if they hate somebody, they just kill ‘em, just ‘cause they “needed killing”. No need to make a law about it.

This is why it always amazes me to hear Americans go on and on and on about the “barbaric” practices of Muslims. “Public Hangings”? We have the nice humane “DEATH Penalty”, where Texas also holds the prize on executions. They have a tendency to be VERY Public. Maybe not the “town square”, but they’ve started doubling-up on the kill schedule now, (to save expenses maybe) by doing at least 2 executions in the same session. And, outside the execution structure, there are always tons of people, some denouncing this savage way to kill people, with just as many shouting REVENGE!!

The heartbreaker was Karla Faye Tucker though, because she had in fact turned herself around, and what the hell harm could it do, for her to just stay in jail the rest of her life?

But, georgie got a taste of the kind of power that lets him decide if someone will live or die. You all know the rest…

Come on, everybody, yeah it pisses you off but is there any one on this entire fucking board who doesn’t expect Cowboy George to not only wipe Libby in a prearranged pardon for silence arrangement but also set him up after he gets out of office in a seven-figure CEO job? This was a take the hit for Cheney from day one and I agree with eeg 83547 that I am not bunching my shorts about the injustice of it all when this is SOP from these bastards, who are above the law now that they are not concerned with re-upping in ‘08. 
What is the big deal? Cowboy hasn’t flinched sending to slaughter countless thousands in a war he has admitted he made up the reason for, including 3600 dead US troops, at a cost of half a trillion bucks, much of that profit for the Saudis, arms dealers and no-bid contractors that have bankrolled his party’s regime for eight years. Do you think for a split second he hesitated about setting a four-time felon free who lied to protect his VP and Chief of Staff? WTF?

Hank Van den Berg brings up an important point.  We currently have a sitting president with a very hot temper.  He seems to lack common sense or clear thinking when he gets angry.  Consider just how many times he has expressed his lack of clarity in small matters and large matters:  He humiliated a reporter because the reporter wore dark sunglasses at a press conference, thus lacked decorum for the commander in chief.  It turns out the reporter was going blind.  He attempts to intimidate and humiliate any reporter who dares ask serious questions concerning the war.  He gets mad because Saddam Hussein made a fool of his father and the result is hundreds of thousands dead in Iraq, orphaned masses of children, 30+ thousand wounded and maimed American vets, 3,500 American vets dead - all due to the president’s, preemptive sucker punch- Bush would not even bother to wait for the analysis and review by the U.N. Nor did he make any connection or see an inference that the majority of the 9/11 attackers were Saudis.  They were not Iraqis.  This man thinks his cronies deserve no bid contracts in Iraq-going on five years. And he thinks that person’s involved in telling the truth when it does not agree with White House statements, should pay the price - as in outing an american spy, meaning no serious penalty or charges of treason against those facilitating the outing.  Dangerous and scary.
Tragic consequences for future generations of Americans.  Wouldn’t you think his Dad would tell him it is time to step down.

Did anyone really think that a potential co-defendent would do any less for his partner in crime?

This is called a quid pro quo. Libby didn’t tell what he knew so bu$h has to cover him in order for all things to stay equal.

bu$h/Chainey,Rove, Libby and other un-named co-conspiritors should be investigated and tried under the RICO Act.

They are running a criminal enterprise out of the Whitehouse, OUR HOUSE!!!!

George Bush’s entire adult life has been devoted to covering his own ass. (In fact, on close investigation it’s the only thing he’s ever been good at.) He’s never been particularly concerned about anybody else’s ass - note the 3,000 plus other Americans he’s gotten killed in Iraq. 

The fate of Scooter’s ass hardly kept George up nights. It was only when the possibility arose that Scooter, should he end up in jail, might uncover George’s ass that George got scared. George is, if nothing else, consistent.

Now people, you’re getting all worked up for no reason.
