can you try to look at the bigger picture?

Question

many people on here keep calling for the impeachment of the president.beyond satisfying your hatred and desire to get even,what would it accomplish?if he was convicted cheney would become president and nothing would change.
since i think we can agree that the terrorists are a big problem,what message would it send them?

Answer 1

Remember the hue and cry during Clinton's impeachment (for the actual CRIMES of lying under oath (perjury) and obstruction of justice) that it was just the Republicans attempting to illegally overturn the election? It wasn't - it was an appropriate action for a politician that lied under oath.

But you can truthfully say that overturning the election is the only reason for these idiotic cries for impeachment. Any sane, rational or reasonable review of the 'charges' against Bush would find them to be completely bogus and 100% partisan political lunacy.

This could all be brushed off with a wave of the hand, except that when they start spewing about "lies about WMD" (Bush didn't lie), "War for Oil" (that's simply not true at all), "Illegal War" (it isn't) or "War criminal" (he isn't), they are creating propaganda for the enemies of the US and enemies of a free and democratic Iraqi government. Whatever their intent, the fact is that the people who kill our soldiers over there, and the people who supply them arms, are bolstered and aided by these mindless statements of partisan hatred.

Just like General Giap (N. Vietnam) said his country was succored by the hippie anti-war movement, so too are the terrorist insurgents in Iraq and the terrorist governments in Iran, Syria and North Korea succored by the peace-at-any-price anti-war protesters. The message it sends is that if they are bloody and brutal enough, the cowardly Americans will run away like they did in Mogadishu.

Talk about failing to have learned the lessons of the Munich Accords and the lessons of Vietnam!

Answer 2

I think that Cheney for president is one of the biggest reasons Bush does NOT go for impeachment.
To me, there has always been something unethical about a person who made money via the oil industry in charge of a country that is fighting over in a war country.

Answer 3

This is probably the LAST place to ask this question!

The people to whom I assume you're addressing this question absolutely REFUSE to look at the bigger picture. Their world is simple, logically inconsistent, and small and they are determined that it should stay that way.

As an aside, wouldn't it be cool to see the demographics for each poster on this "forum"?!?

Answer 4

I think that sometimes, looking at the bigger picture, we realised that some things happens not for what we read in the papers!
There is always a hidden agenda ~ what do you think?

Answer 5

the 1st one looks skinny and hazardous and vulnerable, the 2d looks in hassle-free terms a sprint fairly chunky (my opinion) the third one looks toned, slender, and robust the fourth one looks slender, almost as slender because of the fact the 1st one, and the 5th one looks slender and healthful and fairly tones. the 2d is the biggest, the 1st one is skinnier, the third one looks toned and robust, the 2d is likewise the flabbiest, in spite of the undeniable fact that it is not unquestionably flabby.

No sensible mainstream liberal calls for impeachment of the President.
