DENNIS KUCINICH SHOULD BE PRESIDENT AND BUSH AND HIS THUGS BELONG IN PRISON
Comment by RICARDO L MILLER — March 20, 2007 @ 11:57 am
YES DENNIS… IT IS TIME!!!
Comment by Mikael — March 20, 2007 @ 12:20 pm
Bush and Cheney should not only be impeached and removed from office but be tried for crimes against humanity. They both, along with many others in their administration, belong in jail.
Comment by Patrick E. Frawley — March 20, 2007 @ 12:23 pm
RESTORE AMERICA. USE THE SAFEGUARDS OUR FOUNDERS PUT IN PLACE.
Comment by James — March 20, 2007 @ 12:52 pm
Bush and Cheney should have been impeached in
the year of 2000, after the first election was
stolen. Bush and Cheney are both unfit for
the positions they were appointed for. So, it
is past time for impeachment – what is Congress
waiting for? YES YES it’s past time.
Comment by Lorie S Hawkins — March 20, 2007 @ 1:25 pm
EVERYONE WHO SEES THIS. BE SURE TO GO TO DENNIS’ YOUTUBE SITE AND MAKE COMMENTS THERE AS WELL. HE IS ASKING WHETHER IT IS TIME. IT IS TIME.
Comment by Mikael — March 20, 2007 @ 2:54 pm
Thanx for asking me… Dennis. & I say it’s time to rid OUR nation of King George II & his gang!!!! Impeach his ass.
Comment by Homeland Conspiracy — March 20, 2007 @ 4:53 pm
Bush, Cheney and the whole gang need to be sent packing.
What are we waiting for? Every week there is a new scandel
involving these crooks. The next 2 years are crucial, we can
not afford to have these clowns making decisions.
CONGRESS – WHAT IN GODS NAME ARE YOU GUYS WAITING FOR?????
Comment by Laura Scully — March 20, 2007 @ 5:37 pm
Bush and Cheney have both committed corporate freud except our government is the corporation. Both have lied repeatedly and I do not have to explain that to any reporter like the Mayor did. King George II, I like that because that is exactly what he thinks he is and Cheney is Merlin the Magician. My, how the ex-ceo of Haliburton is so set for retirement and a reporter would have to be a fool to question that fact. Criminals? Violations of the Constitution? Civil Right violation with judicial crimes made legal for him and his crew? America, if you don’t get this man out of office and show some back bone against the abuses of power, we will not have a nation of freedom and peace. We will be the next 3 world nation because they are allowing all corporations to be sold to foreign governments. I can only say that if it was up to me they would both be impeached, then imprisoned for their crimes against the citizens of this nation and now I will say, the children of Iraq. MAYOR..I SALUTE YOU AS AN OFFICER OF THE STATE..as a V.N. era Vet, a native of Louisiana, I HOPE YOU GET YOUR GOAL ACCOMPLISHED.

Hell Yes! Impeach!!!!!!!!
Comment by eric — March 21, 2007 @ 12:42 pm
It’s way way past time to impeach this criminal. It’s disgusting how the Repugnants tied up Clinton over a bj and the spineless Democrats seem too timid to go after this lying, warmongering terrorist. Send him to Abu Ghraib!
Comment by John Crump — March 21, 2007 @ 2:24 pm
easy to underestimate the power of patrioitism, the nationalistic emotions and the fear that drags any action down to uconsciousness. Impeachment and trials for crimes against humanity are absolutely essential, now more than ever in history and all the peoples of the world are justified in their rage and cries for justice. However, every president ever elected could be indicted for crimes against the country, against Americans and the constitution. Did anyone get convicted for Kent State? Haymarket? Scottsboro? Pullman? Wounded Knee? Chicago Democratic convention? Japanese persecutions? Fred Hampton? Black Panthers? Judi Barri and Earth First? Amadou Diallo? Joe Hill? Mumia Abu Jamal? on and on and on…..
Comment by stephan geras — March 21, 2007 @ 3:33 pm
It’s way past time. Cheney must go also. Dispose of him first,
if only by days and force Bush to appoint a new V.P. who would
be an acceptable replacement until 2009.
Also, Mr. Kucinich, thanks for your devotion to peace, justice and the truth.
Comment by Steve Marvin — March 21, 2007 @ 6:32 pm
Impeach, Impeach, Impeach: They claim it is going to be a distraction I ask a distraction from what. This man is Incompetent,and a fool. Neither he or the BUNGLING BOOBS he calls a staff have gotten one thing right. Move now thisa FOOL is positioning himself for the BLACKWATER Merc. to become his personal guard, he has to push the military to a point of none reaction, stop him before he gets there. IMPEACH IMPEACH IMPEACH.
Kepp the pressure on the VP may be they will not get him to the hospital in time and it will save us a lot of money. IMPEACH.

What a bunch of Naive Liberals… It’s a miracle we won the cold war, now barely over 5 years into the ware on terror you want to throw in the towel and appease our enemies? So very, very sad… GOD bless America!
Comment by Roger Runnalls — March 21, 2007 @ 8:16 pm
To start with, we should bring charges of treason against our sitting President and Vice President.

Bush should have been impeached during his first administration which belonged legitimately to Al Gore anyway. Time to clean house and get rid of all the scum.
Comment by Michael — March 21, 2007 @ 10:10 pm
Impeach and then try them for crimes against humanity. It is the only way to protect and re-establish credibility for our nation and the office.
Comment by Jon — March 21, 2007 @ 11:17 pm
Impeachment is LONG OVERDUE!(It’s almost too late) Criminals have run amok within our government. You want to win the war on terrorism? We can start by ridding the world of our awful leadership. We can send a statement to the world that we do not stand for these policies. But once again, our so called leaders would rather sit on their hands and wait until polls and tell them whether or not they have spines. Our democracy and government have failed us. They are a complete embarassment.
Comment by Burt — March 22, 2007 @ 2:03 am
God bless you, Rep. Kucinich!
As a lifelong daily newspaper editor (now retired), I have been appalled by the unbelievable actions of this Administration since its inception, and like many Americans have long been waiting for someone to sound this final call to arms for impeachment.
The American people should greet your bold question with a roar of approval. My wife and I certainly answer you with a resounding “YES!”
Comment by Paul Merz — March 22, 2007 @ 5:42 am
Yes, I think it is time to consider impeachment. I wish the Democrats in Congress would quit weighing the political pros and cons of the possibility. The question is simple: Has Bush and his administration broken the law? If the answer is yes, then IMPEACH HIM!
Comment by Lor — March 22, 2007 @ 8:43 am
Oh yes, please impeach the whole lot of these incredibly incompetent idiots. Our young people are dying for Exxon and the rest who have continued to post billion dollar profits. The so called war was about oil, oil, oil and our coutry “jacked” (like car jacked) the country of Iraq so that we could take their oil from them. Now,as Americans we are hated and despised worldwide. Impeach the scum now!
Comment by Violet Welch — March 22, 2007 @ 10:24 am
We want it! We need it! We’ve taken enough from these
schoolyard bullies and scoundrels. Bush has run this
country into the ground just as the companies he
started. Only this time, we have to pay for it. Enough!
Throw them all in prison.

Comment by Gabe — March 22, 2007 @ 4:11 pm
WE ARE A NATION OF LAWS. This is what we are told from the first remembrances of CIVIC COOPERATION. WE ARE A NATION OF LAWS. We are conditioned to follow the laws of our communities, respectively. We are taught that hard working, honest, people that FOLLOW THE LAWS are REWARDED, and people that BREAK THE LAWS SUFFER CONSEQUENCES.
This band of TREASONOUS CRIMINALS have lied to get AMERICA into an ILLEGAL INVASION of A SOVERIEGN NATION, that had absolutely nothing to do with TERRORISM, PERIOD. They have set it up so that AMERICAN TAXPAYER MONIES are distributed amongst SENIOR ADMINISTRATION OFFICIALS by way of awarding NO BID CONTRACTS to the very companies that those EXECUTIVES were in charge of just prior to them taking their respective positions in this current administration.
This administration has TOTALLY DISCARDED OUR CONSTITUTION, and attempted to implement laws that will undoubtedly be found to be UNCONSTITUTIONAL.
This administration has constantly INTRUDED into the personal lives of ordinary citizens, breaking so many of our laws that one would have to consult an attorney just to know where to begin.
All of this and I haven’t even gotten to THE OATH that these CRIMINALS all took to hold their respective positions in this current administration, which actually charges each and every one of those TRAITORS with the task of PROTECTING AND DEFENDING THE CONSTITUTION, not the PEOPLE, or THE CORPORATIONS.
Now I will add to the CULMINATION of CRIMES. That which is the most DISPICABLE.
The amount of AMERICAN BLOOD, which at last count stood at 3100 soldiers killed in action, not to mention the IRAQI BLOOD, which depending on whatever poll you choose to believe, ranges from approximately 45,000 INNOCENT CIVILIANS to over 600,000(IRAQI) people killed, pouring over the hands of those EXECUTIVE ADMINISTRATION OFFICIALS of this CURRENT ADMINISTRATION.
This BAND of TREASONOUS CRIMINALS cannot be allowed to ESCAPE from OUR LAWS without being held ACCOUNTABLE for the crimes they have committed against the AMERICAN PEOPLE. They must also be made to stand for the HORRIFIC ATROCITIES committed against the country of IRAQ. IT IS TIME FOR IMPEACHMENT. AFTER ALL WE ARE A NATION OF LAWS.
Comment by George Grover — March 22, 2007 @ 5:43 pm
It was time to impeach Bush when he launched the attack on Iraq, an immoral war for oil profits. President Bush and his cronies have done Osama Bin Laden’s bidding by invading Iraq. Osama Bin Laden wants to displace secular governments and replace them with Islamic Republics. Saddam Hussein had one of the few truly secular governments, albeit a dictatorial one. Now it appears that an Islamic Republic will replace the Hussein regime. Osama Bin Laden overthrew a government without firing a shot, we did all the shooting. Thanks George.
Comment by Steve Otta — March 22, 2007 @ 7:07 pm
impeach: the president, the vice president and the attorney general NOW and charge all of them with treason, war crimes and lying to the congress and the world. It is not enough to remove them from office. If they are not incarcerted for crimes committed … then, america begs for the same crimes from all future admistrations.
our failure to punish Johnson, Nixon, and Regan for the crimes committed on their administrative watches is how we arrive at the Reign of the “decider”
Comment by Tom Rountree — March 23, 2007 @ 7:38 am
Impeachment should have been done years ago! How long are we going to let this self-imposed dictator continue to ruin our country? Not only should the whole Bush/Cheney gang be impeached, they should be tried for war crimes, war profiteering, and other crimes against our Constitution and the people of the United States of America. Impeachment is necessary not only to stop our country from going down the wrong path, but to also send a message to the international community that we acknowledge the damage that this administration has done to that community.
Comment by Stan Piotrowski — March 23, 2007 @ 8:08 am
Impeach Bush and Cheney for violating our civil rights, for war crimes and the rest of the laundry list of acts they’ve committed. We need to stand up for ourselves and let him know we will not sit down and be quiet while we destroys our repuation.

IF WE THE PEOPLE CONTINUE TO LET THESE CROOKS STAY IN THE WHITE
HOUSE, WE WILL NEVER RECOVER FROM THE WORST DISASTER IN HISTORY.
THROW THEM ALL IN PRISON AND THROW AWAY THE KEY.

Please impeach Bush!!! When will America open their eyes. This fool don’t care about anyone, he don’t care about our troops. Then he have the nerve to say the dems don’t care about our troops, look who is really trying to get our troops out of harms way. Bush had this plan before he came in the white house. He is trying to make the dems look bad, but not accepting the bill so our troops can come home.
Comment by Meme — April 4, 2007 @ 5:39 pm
I’m still scratching my head over how he got into office in the first place! Impeachment is loooooong overdue! But sadly ,I feel so much damage has already been done that America may never be able to recover. Lord, I pray I’m wrong for Americas sake! Thank you so much Mr. Bush. You couldnt even run your own companies(daddy had to bail you out time after time) So now you’ve screwed your own country up as badly as your own companies! That’s cool. You’ll get yours in the end, I feel!

A resounding YES to impeachment!!!! Both Bush and Cheney prove over and over again their failure to lead the US in positive pursuits. I covet for my country to be the first in limiting greenhouse gases, leading the world in the best national health care program for all, clean water, clean air, education for all, decent housing, a living wage for all and skillful diplomacy in the best interests of all peoples. First in ending the arms race, first in successful, nonviolent rehabilitation treatment for criminals. I want to wake up each morning knowing we are on the side of all races, ages and poor and working people, giving hope for an healthy, earth friendly, opportunity abounding future!!!

Comment by Suzanne M Rich — April 15, 2007 @ 5:28 pm
Most certaintly the domestic enemies in the White House must be removed from office… and soon… they’re plotting more ways to attack us… attack other countries, etc.
Cheney shot his friend in the face while drunk, avoided police, lied,
threatens us with more terrorism… he’s the real terrorist.
The official conspiracy theory of 9/11 is a lie.. fix it before they do it again.
Comment by brian — April 25, 2007 @ 7:58 am
They should all be impeached and tried for murder. Murder of our military men and women and also for the Iraqi men and women. I know that sounds harsh, but what they did is harsh. Any other person on the street would go to prison or be put to death. The Bush administration has lowered themselves to this level and it was their decision. They are not above the law. If the president does it, that does not make it legal. Just a very bad president.

I have been voting to impeach since the very beginning, I’m not about to stop now. I forward everything I can get my hands on, to give to others so they are informed and not left in the dark where they probably like it better, but I don’t care, I say walk out into the light, and stop these man men before it is really too late.
Comment by Melissa — October 31, 2007 @ 12:51 pm
YES — impeachment is surely overdue. 1 million+ innocent Iraqi people dead, torturing around the world, 9/11 truth movement, Hurricane Kathrina negligence, BlackWater private military, and blatant lying at a global scale.

Comment by Mark House — November 29, 2007 @ 5:28 pm
Will the next president be stripped of the powers Bush and Cheney have embraced thru cronyism, crime boss loyalty, and attrition? Or will we all agree to disallow any new president whomsoever it is the powers – regarding them as unconstitutional and abusive/illegal? If we strip the next president of those powers aren’t we then saying that the current unlawfulness and abuses of power in the Bush/Cheney admin are punishable now and must be confronted with impeachment procedings in order to uphold the rule of law in our country?! I say Impeach without delay!
Comment by Mark House — November 29, 2007 @ 5:36 pm
The Bush administration has been using the “state secrets†defense in order to have federal law suits challenging their illegal eavesdropping programs thrown out of court. So far, they have been successful; thanks, in most cases, to lazy or partisan judges who have given little or no scrutiny of the validity of their claims which, according to Constitutional law professor Jonathan Turley on Tuesday’s Countdown, are nothing more than unconstitutional attempts to cover up their own federal crimes.
Olbermann: “With or without this new law, suppose one of the anti-wiretapping civil lawsuits succeeds, what does that legal victory actually mean then in terms of stopping the government or punishing Alberto Gonzales or any other top officials who were responsible for this?â€
Turley: “Well, it can mean a lot and that’s one of the reasons there’s a lot of people, both Democrats and Republicans, who don’t want to see it happen. They don’t want a court to say that the president did something that is a federal crime. That’s why they’re trying to get all these cases thrown out of court because it is rather clear that what the president ordered was a federal crime, clearly defined in federal law. But that causes a problem because many of the Democratic leaders and Republican leaders have promised each other that they would not start impeachment proceedings, but when a federal judge says the president committed a crime, it’s pretty darn hard to ignore that.â€

It is well past the time to Impeach both the President, and Vice President. Dennis speaks about years of possible BLOWBACK, due to the poor Decisions on behalf of our President and his Administration. The Citizens of this Nation, It’s Security, and our Entire Republic have been Severely Damaged. I think Ron Paul and Dennis Kucinich are True Patriots.

Bush (the Manchurian candidate). That is, one that was brought to power and is directed by others (foreign & or domestic)to do that which brings harm to this government. With their lies and deception, to date no one has done more to bring down our nation & constitution than BUSH & CHANEY. We need to show the world and any who come after Bush that this will not be tolerated. We must also restore all that was the pre bush government, for what he has done was not only for his self, but for a future president or presidents that are placed there for the benefit of those with the same agenda.
