Harry Dope
it look like President Bush linked to Watergate. Considering he is a member
of the worst congress in USA history you would think he would.
Obama: Impeachment is not acceptable
WASHINGTON (AP) - Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama laid out
list of political shortcomings he sees in the Bush administration but said
he opposes impeachment for either President George W. Bush or Vice President
Dick Cheney.
Obama said he would not back such a move, although he has been distressed by
the "loose ethical standards, the secrecy and incompetence" of a "variety of
characters" in the administration.

"There's a way to bring an end to those practices, you know: vote the bums
out," the presidential candidate said, without naming Bush or Cheney.
"That's how our system is designed."
The term for Bush and Cheney ends on Jan. 20, 2009. Bush cannot
constitutionally run for a third term, and Cheney has said he will not run
to succeed Bush.
Obama, a Harvard law school graduate and former lecturer on constitutional
law at the University of Chicago, said impeachment should not be used as a
standard political tool.
"I think you reserve impeachment for grave, grave breeches, and intentional
breeches of the president's authority," he said.
"I believe if we began impeachment proceedings we will be engulfed in more
of the politics that has made Washington dysfunction," he added. "We would
once again, rather than attending to the people's business, be engaged in a
tit-for-tat, back-and-forth, non-stop circus."
Obama, son of a Kenyan father and American mother, spoke at a weekly
constituent breakfast he sponsors with Illinois' other senator, Dick Durbin.
He was asked about impeachment.

Unlike you, he knows he would actually be in a position to *judge* the
impeachment. Unlike you, he has actually listened to the case that has
been made for impeachment and has evaluated the evidence that will be
brought to support that argument, and unlike you, he realizes that this
trial will end in acquittal.

Dope thinks it would end in acquittal. That's why he wants one.
