Impeachment Watch IIIThe "reality-based" community continues to pretend that they are going to overthrow "King" George.
The Democracy Cell Project
quotes Mike Hersh (I know, who?), who cheerfully admits to wanting to impeach Bush even prior to his inauguration in 2001:
My name is Mike Hersh. I'm here representing Progressive Democrats of America, Convict Bush Cheney dot Org, and After Downing Street dot Org. I've been working to impeach Bush and Cheney since 2000, even before they took the oath of office, on the theory that if fibbing about [oral sex] is sufficient reason for impeachment, then cheating in the elections, losing, and having your friends on the Supreme Court throw out the votes to put you into office is grounds for impeachment and removal from office.You know how it is; never mind that the recounts conducted by the media revealed that Bush would have won the recount requested by Gore's lawyers, and the recount ordered by the Florida Supreme Court, and never mind that Clinton's crime was fibbing
under oath.
Hersh repeats one of
my favorite canards:
In his chilling cautionary tale It Can't Happen Here, Sinclair Lewis warned: "When fascism comes to America, it will be wrapped in the flag and carrying the cross." Sound familiar? That was in 1935.Unfortunately for Hersh, that phrase appears nowhere in
It Can't Happen Here.
Here's a link to the
Impeach Bush Coalition blog. Pretty lame, but I suppose the air must be going out of the effort with Bush's
rising poll numbers.
