Not all is lost in the online world dedicated to impeaching Bush. I see that Zzpat over at Bravehost.com is still keeping a light burning in the hopes that the criminal George W. Bush will be brought to justice. Zzpat’s Impeach Bush web site is “Dedicated to exposing the lies and impeachable offenses of George W. Bush.”
I admire that ongoing dedication. We’re here, burning the oil at darkest midnight along with you, reporting the news related to the effort to impeach Bush, and put him behind bars, where he belongs, whether that news is good or bad.
Lately, the bad is much stronger than the good. Ironically, the Democrats have done more to douse the idea of impeaching Bush than the Republicans ever could have done. Still we’ll remain on watch, with our eyes wide open.

Ten days ago, Cynthia McKinney submitted a resolution of articles of impeachment against President George W. Bush to the floor of the House of Representatives. Since that time, precisely zero members of the House of Representatives have signed on as cosponsors.
Now, I know that Representative McKinney was voted out of office this year, and was not one of the most popular Democrats in Congress. So, fine, Democratic members of the House of Representatives may feel justified in not cosponsoring the McKinney articles of impeachment in particular.
Will no other Democrat offer such a resolution? No one?
It seems not, and that is what’s worthy of note.

Once upon a time, there existed a web site entitled Help Me Impeach Bush. It was hosted at www.helpmeimpeachbush.com
This evening, I found a link to the site. Sadly, it no longer exists.
What did the site owner conclude? That impeaching Bush is no longer important?
That seems to be a general conclusion in the month after the November 2006 congressional elections - that we can just sit down now, and run out the clock on the last two years of the presidency of George W. Bush…
…while he continues to imprison people without criminal charge… and spy on innocent Americans… and fight an illegal war.
Two more years of that is okay with you?
