POLITICAL JUNK | Reason #3,982 To Impeach Bush

I don't want to get into a whole debate into the +/- of impeachment proceedings, but seriously, how many possible impeachable offenses can President Bush get away with before he gets slapped?

For four of President Bush's eight year term, he will be serving (supposedly) alongside a Democratic congress who have let him get away with everything. Obvious the Republicans assisted Bush from 2002 through 2006, but that's not surprising. A Senator's job should not be to get reelected, it's to represent their state and uphold the constitution Instead of doing their job, these politicans worry that holding the President to the rules of the law will make them look paritsan.

Anyway, enough ranting. Here's the latest bullshit from Bush:

President Bush invoked executive privilege to keep Congress from seeing the FBI report of an interview with Vice President Dick Cheney and other records related to the administration's leak of CIA operative Valerie Plame's identity in 2003. The president's decision drew a sharp protest Wednesday from Rep. Henry Waxman, chairman of House Oversight Committee, which had subpoenaed Attorney General Michael Mukasey to turn over the documents.

"This unfounded assertion of executive privilege does not protect a principle; it protects a person," the California Democrat said. "If the vice president did nothing wrong, what is there to hide?"

Waxman left little doubt he would soon move for a committee vote to hold Mukasey in contempt of Congress.
