It kind of makes a Democratic headquarters break-in look innocent doesn't it? That's like kids swearing and getting in trouble and this is like a mob hit. Clinton lying under oath about infidelity and being impeached doesn't compare to this either.

How is it Bush hasn't been impeached before now? What an outrageous list that is...I don't think it's a bit embellished either.

Let's hear Rep. Dennis Kucinich bring the articles of impeachment against Bush.
