I M P E A C H or R E S I G N

The problem with a Bush resignation is that this leaves us with Cheney.
The Impeachment option should cover both of them.
Last night on Scarborough country Joe ran clips of the Bush litany of malapropisms and hosted commentary regarding his ongoing wrestling match with the English language. Joe Scarborough, who is actually a former Congressperson, wondered wistfully, if not painfully whether we have to suffer two more years of this with the precipitous decline in Gravitas the Presidential office has fallen into with our folksy hoksey Pres.
Ken Mehlman couldn't look more facile in trying to recast "stay the course" with announcing a new moniker Sunday that didn't quite rhyme and wasn't quite catchy that sounded something like "adapt and modify" or something equally wishy washy.
The Republicans should be talking about resignation and it looks like they are.
Cheney as a Ford protege understands the need to get a real serious problem out of the way then pardon it into silence. This is a real serious problem. If Bush is in office in November, for sure the Democrats will take the House and John Conyers has already all but promised to those who know robust impeachment hearings.
Then the republicans will whine about how the vote was stolen from them and forget that their biggest donors own the electronic voting companies.
Some muse that the country shouldn't suffer another impeachment debacle.
We shouldn't have to wait for it. If an international commission establishes the probability greater that the Towers fell from human device and artifice extraneous to the alleged hijackers or if there was any governmental duplicity, they both have to go, Cheney and Bush like. Then someone should start taking about disgorgment of
war profits.
