Mad Murtha And The Delusional Dems
Mad Murtha is at it again. He is ready to impeach President Bush because Iraq is turning out to be the hard effort he said it would be.
ep. John P. Murtha (D-Pa.) said Sunday that Democrats in Congress could consider impeachment as a way to pressure President Bush on his handling of the war in Iraq.
“What I’m saying, there’s four ways to influence a president. And one of them’s impeachment,†Murtha, chairman of the House Appropriations defense subcommittee, said on CBS’ “Face the Nation.â€
Like too many Democrats Murtha is moved by political calculation and how many seats his party can pick up instead of what is best for America. Impatience does not equate to high crimes and misedeamenors. I guess whiney George Tenet will be the prime witness or the “prosecution”. I would hope impeachment fever would grow, except for the fact al Qaeda would – again – get the wrong message and ratchet up their killing even more than they did now that they feel the Dems are buckling. Sadly, the Dems are using human lives in the ME for political gain. I think they have overreached. I think their madness and glee (Schumer was beside himself in how well Iraq could be played to their advantage) is isolated to the lefty halls of NY City and DC. I think America is not paying attention and simpy answering the question “do you want an end to Iraq” with a simple ‘of course’. But impeachment? Surrendering to Bin Laden? No one is asking those questions in the polls….
I have said it before and I’ll say it again, it is about the MONEY. The money it costs to finance this war is wanted for domestic projects. Domestic projects help the dems stay in power. It is that simple. Rudy is correct, dems will not protect this nation, they only see a few trees, they do not recognize that the forest exists.
The impeachment threat is being used by the Dems to coerce the administration ..i.e. if you don’t do what we want you to do we will impeach you. I have never before seen impeachment being used for policy reasons. Impeachment is supposed to be for high crimes and misdemeanors not because one political party disagrees with another one.
Another item, I keep hearing the Dems say that the people spoke in the last election. Please tell me when the Dems told people if we get into power we will defund the war and pull troops. As a matter of fact they put Murtha and Pelosi in the closet to hide their true intent and prevent them from saying just that because they believed it may have cost them the election.
The problem is that we need more Reps calling out the Dems like Guiliani has… and as far as Al Qaeda is concerned, did anyone hear Tenet talk about the fact that the terrorists are ready to hit us again in a spectacular fashion?….and for following the money…how much money is bein funneld into the Dems from the ME gulf states. No Rep pol has the guts to call the Dems out on all of this.
