Let the Impeachment of Bush Begin
Freedom Fries
dragging it into war. Time for the redumblicans in congress to step up and
prove that the lives of the dead soldiers are worth just as much as a
Clinton blow job.
Greg Palast: 'Impeachment time: 'Facts were fixed''
By Greg Palast, GregPalast.com
Here it is. The smoking gun. The memo that has "IMPEACH HIM" written all
over it.
The top-level government memo marked "SECRET AND STRICTLY PERSONAL," dated
eight months
before Bush sent us into Iraq, following a closed meeting with the
President, reads,
"Military action was now seen as inevitable. Bush wanted to remove Saddam
through military
action justified by the conjunction of terrorism and WMD. But the
intelligence and facts
were being fixed around the policy."
Read that again: "The intelligence and facts were being fixed...."
For years, after each damning report on BBC TV, viewers inevitably ask me,
"Isn't this
grounds for impeachment?" -- vote rigging, a blind eye to terror and the bin
Ladens before
9-11, and so on. Evil, stupidity and self-dealing are shameful but not
impeachable. What's
needed is a "high crime or misdemeanor."
And if this ain't it, nothing is.
The memo, uncovered this week by the Times, goes on to describe an elaborate
plan by
George Bush and British Prime Minister Tony Blair to hoodwink the planet
into supporting
an attack on Iraq knowing full well the evidence for war was a phony.
A conspiracy to commit serial fraud is, under federal law, racketeering.
However, the
Mob's schemes never cost so many lives.
Here's more. "Bush had made up his mind to take military action. But the
case was thin.
Saddam was not threatening his neighbors, and his WMD capability was less
than that of
Libya, North Korea or Iran."
Really? But Mr. Bush told us, "Intelligence gathered by this and other
governments leaves
no doubt that the Iraq regime continues to possess and conceal some of the
most lethal
weapons ever devised."
A month ago, the Silberman-Robb Commission issued its report on WMD
intelligence before
the war, dismissing claims that Bush fixed the facts with this snooty,
condescending
conclusion written directly to the President, "After a thorough review, the
Commission
found no indication that the Intelligence Community distorted the evidence
regarding
Iraq's weapons."
We now know the report was a bogus 618 pages of thick whitewash aimed to let
Bush off the
hook for his murderous mendacity.
Read on: The invasion build-up was then set, says the memo, "beginning 30
days before the
US Congressional elections." Mission accomplished.
You should parse the entire memo and see if you can make it through its
three pages
without losing your lunch.
Now sharp readers may note they didn't see this memo, in fact, printed in
the New York
Times. It wasn't. Rather, it was splashed across the front pages of the
Times of LONDON on
Monday.
It has effectively finished the last, sorry remnants of Tony Blair's
political career.
(While his Labor Party will most assuredly win the elections Thursday, Prime
Minister
Blair is expected, possibly within months, to be shoved overboard in favor
of his
Chancellor of the Exchequer, a political execution which requires only a
vote of the
Labour party's members in Parliament.)
But in the US, barely a word. The New York Times covers this hard evidence
of Bush's
fabrication of a casus belli as some "British" elections story. Apparently,
our
President's fraud isn't "news fit to print."
My colleagues in the UK press have skewered Blair, digging out more
incriminating memos,
challenging the official government factoids and fibs. But in the US press .
nada, bubkes,
zilch. Bush fixed the facts and somehow that's a story for "over there."
The Republicans impeached Bill Clinton over his cigar and Monica's
affections. And the US
media could print nothing else.
Now, we have the stone, cold evidence of bending intelligence to sell us on
death by the
thousands, and neither a Republican Congress nor what is laughably called US
journalism
thought it worth a second look.
My friend Daniel Ellsberg once said that what's good about the American
people is that you
have to lie to them. What's bad about Americans is that it's so easy to do.

As long as he tells lies that make the neo-cons feel good about themselves,
then sure. So lies about how dangerous is Iraq and how we need to kill
thousands of Iraqi to show that the US will not be bullied in to losing out
on oil that is ours by Right of God are perfectly ok. Lies about not
getting blown by a willing, consenting adult, however....

There's more to it than that. I know a woman, for instance, who lives
in one of the "red states." She's fifty, dirt poor, works for Wal-Mart
making $8 an hour, and has a son in Iraq she's scared to death will be
killed.
She's one of the most rabid Bush supporters I've ever met.
She doesn't care who's got money and who hasn't. She's convinced that
Republicans will save America -- from terrorists, and from the
"liberals." What she doesn't seem to realize is, her life is about the
*worst* that it gets, and it's the people she supports who put her
there.

Actually I couldn't care less if Clinton is a lawyer or not. Anyway, he's

would if he were practicing law.
