I admit it...I was slow to join the impeachment bandwagon. I just foresaw a circus of epic proportions, with the established media connections to the Republican noise machine giving us the disadvantage in public sentiments, perhaps dooming the effort. But with overwhelming evidence of a complete disregard for the rule of law to the point of near sociopathy, it's hard not to come to any other conclusion than it's time to quite seriously put impeachment back on the table.

There are so many things that this Administration has done to betray the confidence of the American people. Rather than provide a long list of them here, I'll give you some links to peruse:
*The Impeachment of George W. Bush: A Practical Guide for Concerned Americans
*The Case for Impeachment: The Legal Argument for Removing George W. Bush From Office
*Impeach the President: The Case Against Bush And Cheney
(the above are all books which make detailed legal arguments for impeachment)
*Citizen for Ethics and Responsibility's new report: 'Crossing the Line'
*Here is an article in the Washington Post on the historical background of Impeachment
*And finally, some fellow bloggers have plenty of comments about this: Mahablog, Down With Tyranny, Seeing The Forest, The Young Turks, and Crooks and Liars.
Tell Speaker Pelosi to put Impeachment BACK ON THE TABLE. Her phone number is 202-225-0100.
Doing nothing is not an option. Complacency at this moment in history is a moral crime.
