Thread Name: BS: Vote to Impeach Bush
Subject: RE: BS: Vote to Impeach Bush
I would, with pleasure. Guest drags out the same old horseshit about protest and patriotism and love-it-or-leave-it drivel that nearly prevented us from stopping the last war. Forget grudges about Clinton's treatment, which was self-inflicted, and focus on today's crises: war against civil liberties, tax cushions for the rich, opportunistic and nebulous 'wars' against select dictators and terrorists. The Justice Department is scheming further assaults against our privacy and long-standing legal procedure, under the banner of security. Hitler hid under that same banner. Our Secretary of Defense openly ponders the effect of nuclear weapons on Iraqi cities, and we wonder why people around the world perceive us as the greatest threat to peace. I resent the fact that the actions of criminals like Cheney and Rumsfield can kill in my name and at my expense. Thank you, protestors, for finding the courage to speak out.
