- boobees, on 10/11/2007, -4/+60This whole situation is so painfully obvious, and the process is so painfully slow. The only thing that hurts more is the average citizens' lack of interest/ignorance about this whole thing.
- fatfinger, on 10/11/2007, -7/+54blow job = impeachment. Mass murder and illegal wars = foot dragging. These ***** high jacked the white house, started illegal wars and they should be tried right now as war criminals.

-Thomas Jefferson -Declaration of Independence - inactive, on 10/11/2007, -1/+21Until Congress actually does something about BushCo's war crimes, many Americans have contempt for Congress.
- fatfinger, on 10/11/2007, -5/+25America looks stupid and arrogant to the rest of the world and we didn't even elect these SONS of bitches into office.
- Plinkotic, on 10/11/2007, -3/+14Justice is blind. And gagged. And the buttplug's on fire.
- RogerF, on 10/11/2007, -4/+15First they came for the Communists,
and I didn’t speak up,
because I wasn’t a Communist.
Then they came for the Jews,
and I didn’t speak up,
because I wasn’t a Jew.
Then they came for the Catholics,
and I didn’t speak up,
because I was a Protestant.
Then they came for me,
and by that time there was no one
left to speak up for me.
by Rev. Martin Niemoller, 1945 - Insightful, on 10/11/2007, -2/+12Again with the but-but-but-Clinton defense. Lawless Cheney wanted to abolish the office which wanted him to comply with the law - something unprecedented. I see you have not evolve much since the Nixon era.
- g0nzilla, on 10/11/2007, -1/+10Americans will never rise up against their government because the massive Industrial military complex will go into overdrive and crush any uprising ruthlessly. You guys truly are under screwed.
- Osjpr, on 10/11/2007, -1/+10"Thats because the average U.S. citizen is an idiot."
That's more or less correct. - laserblazer, on 10/11/2007, -0/+9America is looking rather stupid and arrogant to America and we, too, didn't elect these sons of demons.
- gthrank, on 10/11/2007, -0/+9The same document continues:
But when a long train of ABUSES AND USURPATIONS, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under ABSOLUTE DESPOTISM, it is their right, IT IS THEIR DUTY, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security. - Dilz, on 10/11/2007, -1/+9Unfortunately, we no longer live in the Age of Enlightenment. Mercantilism has given way to "free" markets and there's this thing called Fox News.
/Yeah, I said it.
//Fark is good too.
///Luvs da slashies.
////Also likes Digg's new Ajax implementation. - gthrank, on 10/11/2007, -1/+6Would somebody please then give Bush a blow job so we can impeach him?
- hawkspur, on 10/11/2007, -10/+15Thats because the average U.S. citizen is an idiot.
- FleetAdmiral, on 10/11/2007, -0/+5I thought that Bush did away with the constitution and bill of rights. See, shows in this clip from Ren and Stimpy http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fyU7hnJsvas (watch it to the end, you'll see)
- KhanneaSuntzu, on 10/11/2007, -0/+5I see so much loathing and hatred between far left and far right in the US, and nothing but apathy in between. Looking in from the outside this can only lead to a civil war within a few years. The US has fragmented along political lines and cannot be reconciled except with another pretexted terrorist strike engineered by some sinister neocon cabal.
- rmmcclay, on 10/11/2007, -2/+6The main issue...which surprisingly few seem to know is "caging". Caging is basically disenfranchising people their right to vote. A large majority were black solidiers...
Ah...who gives a *****. Back to Heroes...and American Idol. - Dilz, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3Strike that. I need carriage returns.
Test. - patrickloggins, on 10/11/2007, -5/+8Can we really do anything? After nothing was done after I saw Gonzales' questioning, I don't think we can get anything done.
- Osjpr, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3"He was impeached for lying about a blow job."
Reporter: What is your name, Mr Clinton?
Clinton: Blinton
Average idiot: IMPEACH! He lied about his name!!!! IMPEACH! - cyberstall, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3I'd respond to you in jest but no one would see it, so I'll be real with you for a minute in hopes that you actually read this.
Us "liberals" are Americans, just like you! And we want our freedoms protected, just like you! We want to be sovereign, and independent, just like our founding fathers did!
Stop playing into the polarizing nature of republicans/democrats. this society shouldn't be one size fits all, keep living the way you want, and i'll keep living the way i want. We should destroy the two party system, and terms like "liberal" and "conservative" should be banned.
It's sad that our founding fathers had such great intent, and put so many great rules of law down in the constitution to protect the citizens of this nation, and they've all/mostly been shat on within two hundred years.
grow up man. - goffy59, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3Oh, your brainwashed.. I see how it is. Go sign up for the war if you like it so much. It is murder. Just because its legal for soldiers to murder, it doesnt make it right. Bush indirectly murdered a half a million Iraqi's.... I mean the administration did... wait isnt that bush, wait just pick which ***** you hate most. They are all a bunch of douche bags.
- baldwin90, on 10/11/2007, -2/+5if congress wants to hold congress in "contempt" why wouldn't they just impeach the bush, same thing basically, if congress really wants to make a puncture and get "Hilary" into office, hold bush to an impeachment for the rest of his term, like bill clinton was, let the speaker of the house aka Nazi Pelosi appoint the prez that she wants, congress will be against the whole bush admistration for the inside 911 job and the "WMD" invasion of iraq, they will cover for their GIANT mistake in supporting this failed "u.s. diplomacy" act.
- benlindelof, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2Bush seems to think he rides above the system. Never touching the ground.
Amazing to consider what that must do to someone's ego. - eatsushi, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2Most Americans know how screwed up Congress is. You are correct when they have no interest, or are ignorant about this whole thing. They are also tired of hearing it, they get depressed and don't want to hear it when finally explained to them, and when adult republicans/democrats who have kids explain to them what is going on, that is like putting more gasoline on the fire due to all the distorted views IMO.
- rald84, on 10/11/2007, -1/+3FTA: "In an ironic twist, the Department of Justice (DoJ) would be called on to enforce the contempt motion."
that says it all: NOTHING WILL HAPPEN! either that or a reverse saturday night massacre - inactive, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2
wha's congress??? - dopplerdog, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1Clinton was impeached for refusing to answer a personal question that had nothing to do with his ability to run a country. I concede that technically he may have been obliged to do so. However, that he had to do so is an indictment of the american political system, as is the ability of Bush to start illegal wars with impunity. It doesn't detract from fatfinger's argument.
- stevebee, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1For the one-thousandth time --
The US attorneys are political appointees. It is legal for the President, or whoever he designates, to fire them at any time for any reason. The color of their hair, they watch the wrong tv shows...whatever. - CogitatorX, on 10/11/2007, -1/+2Quit posting that exact same ignorant ass comment. It's obvious you are a Bush enabler so at least learn how to spell Cheney.
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1Never happen. Can you say "scot-free"?
- goffy59, on 10/11/2007, -3/+4Hilary is a dumb bitch. She would try to destroy freedom of speech (ban video games). I dont think anyone can fix America. It might as well fall just like Rome did. They fell because of corruption.... seem familiar? You have those that see whats wrong(but cant do anything about it), those who play games(that actually think voting and arguing about who's got a bigger dick matters), and those who dont give a rats ass.(politics... whats that?) And thats why we are all *****.
- bjs3171, on 10/11/2007, -11/+12do i smell impeachment? jail time? death penalty? gas chamber?
- bkemper, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1It's not legal to lie to congress about it. If everything was so above-the-board, then why the obfuscation and dissembling? To protect us against the terrorists?!?
- obliviousfool, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1What? The Independent Counsel was put in place because of Nixon (and abused against Clinton.) I'm just saying if you expect the DoJ to investigate anything you're an optimist. McNulty intends to recuse himself, but so should the rest of those cretins! Obviously the whole department has been compromised and we need an outside investigation. Congress has no investigational skills. To expect them to make sense of all these investigations is again optimistic.
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1the pain is real. i feel it every day. i lose friends over it. it hurts. it wrecks the body. it pre-occupies the mind. i wait for justice and i seek news of justice every single day.
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1
heeeeey there... don't interrupt me... I'm watching 24Hrs coverage of Anna Nicole Smith! - faskippy, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1"“We want to know where the lines go from the DoJ to the White House,” he said. “That’s where these bread crumbs keep leading us and then they get lost in the snow or something.”"
That line was FTA. Lost in the Snow. How true. - bkemper, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1What an idiot. Too bad 12 year olds like him can't appreciate what it means to have an administration that acts in total disregard of the law.
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1Blair is the only one willing but he's had too many scheduling conflicts.
- faskippy, on 10/11/2007, -0/+0Massive pardons, anyone?
- faskippy, on 10/11/2007, -1/+1I do have to say this, I don't know where you get the 2 day work week from, since the dems took office, they increased the work week from 3 to 5 days, which many in congress were pissed about. I do agree, however, that they keep dragging their feet. Hell, the only things they don't get *****-blocked on are the simple little non-issues. This whole admin is crap.
- kreneskyp, on 10/11/2007, -1/+1i think i speak for most dems when were not because they are focusing on scandals, but because they arent focusing enough on them. honestly, they should be grinding government to a halt so that there is no other topic to talk about other than the fact that there are dozens of ongoing scandals that the white house is stone walling them on.
- baldwin90, on 10/11/2007, -2/+1agree to the war criminals part/ lack of "evidence" for the rest
- numbnuts, on 10/11/2007, -4/+2"Bush - Cheyney - Iraq - global warming - BAD ... arrrg ...... whine ...... snivel" ---- where have I heard this 1,000 times before (and thats just the last 2 hours ha ha ha) ... try Reddit, Digg, NPR, NBC, CNN or any other mainstream news channel ha ha ha ..... good lord I think the US population is totally de-sensitized to this constant sniveling about "Bush - Cheyney - Iraq - global warming - BAD ... arrrg" ... did I mention --- I am a pirate Arrrrrg ! -- Ha ha ha ha
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -3/+1Good job earning your 14% approval rating, Congress. Clearly America wants you to continue these stupid non-scandals, along with your lavish & exotic trips, and your 2 day work weeks, and your brilliant choice of names for buildings instead of actually passing something meaningful.
- bufmike, on 10/11/2007, -3/+1Have the dems given up on legislating?? All they seem to do is investigate.....
- DirtySnachez, on 10/11/2007, -3/+1heheh, but but
- gback2000, on 10/11/2007, -8/+5Bill Clinton was not impeached for a blow job. He was impeached for lying about a blow job.
