Dems Learning to Impeach! Miracle!

Congratulations to the Illinois State Representatives for impeaching
Governor Rod Blagojevich ("No clear rules for Illinois' Senate's first
impeachment," C.S. Monitor 01/12/09) They lived up to their
constitutional responsibility.

However, as corrupt as the Illinois Governor's alleged violations were,
the harmful results of his crimes and misdemeanors pale when compared
with those of the President of the United States. Yet, House Speaker
Nancy Pelosi and the House of Representatives have allowed George W.
Bush to finish his term with no accountability for his transgressions
that led to the deaths of more than 100,000 Iraqi civilians, thousands
of Americans and caused severe damages to the integrity of America's
constitutional governance. And America is doing nothing about it.

Have we, the proud citizens of our republic, lapsed into adoring the
United States Presidency as a monarchical office with little or no
limitations of power?

While considering that George W. Bush has not been impeached yet, imagine
how much his much revered successor, President-elect Obama, would be
able to get away with if HE were to ignore the Constitution and betray
the trust of the people.

With the impeachment of Governor Blagojevich, Illinois has wisely set a
critical constitutional precedent. On the national level, America has
betrayed itself by not impeaching President Bush -- yet.
