Just a thought

Now that Scooter Libby (who the hell goes by that kind of nickname after age 10??) has been indicted, folks on the right and left are lining up to give George Bush advice on how to save his Presidency from the trash heap of history

Here's the thing--he doesn't care. And frankly, it should be obvious to anyone who's watched this administration run amok that the damage they've caused is pretty significant.

They lied about WMD's in Iraq. They then kept changing the reasons why we had to invade and occupy another sovereign nation. Then they tried to blame faulty intelligence when they tried to spike the intelligence. They put a CIA operative in danger, and gave us quite a show as Bush backpedaled his statement that he'd come down like a ton of bricks on the leaker. They shortchanged the army, screwed soldiers and veterans, questioned the patriotism of anyone who looked askance at their policies, and spent money we didn't have while giving tax cuts to the wealthy.

I don't want just an apology, or a resignation, or new blood in the White House administration. I think it's high time we impeached George Bush for the lies leading to the Iraq war and the danger he put Plame--and the US--in. Because he might not have been the leak, but he's been happy to give the leak succor, and I'm sick to death of it.

I think this warrants an impeachment more than orals in the Oval Office.
