Did I miss something, or were Dennis Kucinich's 35 articles of impeachment against President Bush ignored by The Tribune? Legal scholars on TV have stated that many of the articles proposed are likely impeachable offenses, far exceeding the merits that eroded the dignity of the last presidential impeachment process.
    House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid say that impeachment would be divisive and counterproductive to the election mandate on the war. So much for accountability. It's not their job to ignore our Constitution's demise, it's their obligation to protect it. A serious debate on the impeachment articles may be Congress' only hope of doing the people's business this session.
    The Tribune should take the matter seriously as well.

Dear Sawzall:

One definition --not the legal one--is the inability to see evil. I suspect your type falls in that set. You seem to miss the point of this thread; it is simply to point out how much communication and concern there is on the subject of impeachable offenses by your furless leader. Perhaps you feel that Kucinich's 35 articles, for example, do not bear sufficient weight, especially compare to Clinton's two articles. Or perhaps you feel that Mister Bush has never lied to the American people or the American Congress. Or perhaps you imagine he has broken no laws, violated no Consittutional limitations, or violated no part of his oath.

Unfortunately there is a large portion of the American public who disagree with you on these points.
