Republican Former Senator Fears Bush’s Impeachable Offenses

By Marlow W. Cook (Former Senator, KY) — “… I am frightened to death of George Bush. I fear a secret government. I abhor a government that refuses to supply the Congress with requested information. I am against a government that refuses to tell the country with whom the leaders of our country sat down and determined our energy policy, and to prove how much they want to keep that secret, they took it all the way to the Supreme Court. … For me, as a Republican, I feel that when my party gives me a dangerous leader who flouts the truth, takes the country into an undeclared war and then adds a war on terrorism to it without debate by the Congress, we have a duty to rid ourselves of those who are taking our country on a perilous ride in the wrong direction.

If we are indeed the party of Lincoln (I paraphrase his words), a president who deems to have the right to declare war at will without the consent of the Congress is a president who far exceeds his power under our Constitution.”

A Republican formerly of Louisville, was Jefferson County judge from 1962-1968 and U.S. senator from Kentucky from 1968-1975.

  1. George Bush should be impeached immediately and also tried for treason against the People and Constitution of the United States of Amercia.

    I am a Vietnam Veteran and loyal patriot of my country and my people. What can I do to help? My children four educated youg adults will stand unified with me and are spreading the word about the 200 plus FEMA camps. This is looking very much like NAZI Germany in the 1930’s FEMA answers only to the Executive Branch and it should be disbanned immediately, as that alone compromises the National Security of the Country. Many online say these camps have gas chambers and there are rail spurs with government locomotives and rails cars designed to be used as portable gas chambers for any that resist. Please tell me this nightmare is not true
