IMPEACH BUSH


IMPEACH CHENEY

CHENEY: UNENDING WAR

Arrogant Dick Cheney was on the Sunday talk shows saying that the Bush administration is going to do what it wants to do regardless of what Congress, or the American people, want. Cheney and Bush are effectively giving us all the middle finger. Bush started this unnecessary war, and he's determined to stay there no matter what. Cheney claims that Democrats have offered no alternative, which is an outright lie. He also says this is a 30-40 year commitment. We can do better. We have to do better. Let us begin with impeaching these arrogant criminals. This article by the Associated Press is at www.cnn.com:

President Bush, facing opposition from both parties over his plan to send more troops to Iraq, said he has the authority to act no matter what Congress wants.

"I fully understand they could try to stop me from doing it. But I've made my decision. And we're going forward," Bush told CBS' "60 Minutes" in an interview to air Sunday night.

Vice President Dick Cheney asserted that lawmakers' criticism will not influence Bush's plans and he dismissed any effort to "run a war by committee."

"The president is the commander in chief. He's the one who has to make these tough decisions," Cheney said.

The defiant White House stance comes as both the House and Senate, now controlled by Democrats, prepare to vote on resolutions that oppose additional U.S. troops in Iraq. Cheney said those nonbinding votes would not affect Bush's ability to carry out his policies.

"He's the guy who's got to decide how to use the force and where to deploy the force," Cheney said. "And Congress obviously has to support the effort through the power of the purse. So they've got a role to play, and we certainly recognize that. But you also cannot run a war by committee."
