Well, we still have Bush in office. Many things have happened since I last wrote. (Its been a long time, I apologize) We have found out that he has been spying on average American citizens, just today I found out that there is a memo that Bush wrote saying that he wanted to go to war in January 2003 and even proposed repainting US warplanes to look like UN planes so that they would be shot at and give a pretext to go to war, and then there is that State of the Union address.
What have we to look forward to is more of the same from Bush. More lies, more concealed government and bigger cuts to social programs paid for by the masses since the richest taxpayers will have to pay less. Already the House of Representatives has sent Bush a bill that cuts Medicaid, student loans/aid, and who knows what else may be hidden in there.
More and more Congress persons are starting to talk about impeachment. But will they actually get off their duffs and do so? I predict not. As the saying goes, don't bite the hand that feeds you. This makes the Democratic Party an accomplice rather than an opposition party. Can we count on them anymore? No. It's time to elect a third party to the Congress. Time for some real opposition!

But I can't see the number of Democrats going up enough to make impeachment viable. Now, the House could vote to impeach. But I just can't see a two-thirds majority of the Senate supporting Dubya's ouster.
Nevertheless, we can really tarnish the Shrub's legacy by returning control of Congress to the Democrats this November.
By the way, Liberal - please come over to "Touchy Subjects" when you have a time. My last two posts are on Bush - and I'm not very nice to him, either.
