"PBS omnipresence Bill Moyers devoted his entire hour-long Bill Moyers Journal
on Friday night to the need to impeach George Bush and Dick Cheney. The stacked
hour had two guests, and both were aggressively pro-impeachment: John Nichols of
The Nation magazine, author of the book 'The Genius of Impeachment,' and lawyer
Bruce Fein, who Moyers labeled a 'conservative,' but he compared Bush to King
George III, to Adolf Hitler, to the communist autocrats of the Gulag, and to,
well, FDR, in suggesting the post 9-11 era could see a mistake like our
interning of Japanese Americans. In this conversation, Moyers sometimes played
the skeptic, but the overall tenor of the hour was not only anti-Bush, but
anti-Speaker Pelosi for being so timid: 'Why doesn't Nancy Pelosi see it her
duty to take on at least the impeachment hearings that you say would educate the
public?'"
Impeachment is wrong for America, I thought it was wrong when the republicans did it to Clinton and I believe that it is wrong now. Democrats need to invest their time and energy into their own candidates and winning elections in 2008. Moveon.com was started under the premise that the best way to deal with the Clinton problem was to censure and move on. I say the best thing Democrats could do right now is isolate Bush and move on.
