Congressman Charlie Rangel Misses the Point


The New York Daily News is reporting this story today.

In spite of what he said was pervasive corruption in the White House, Charlie Rangel, the dean of New York's congressional delegation, said today he wouldn't want President Bush impeached. "God forbid!" he said.

He was speaking on CNN's "Late Edition" about Attorney General Alberto Gonzales, and saying Bush should be "ashamed" of the AG. So, what led to the leniency on trying to boot Bush? His replacement -- Dick Cheney.


Ah, excuse me, Charlie but you're a nitwit. Where is it written that only Bush should be impeached? The Congress, using an oft-forgotten piece of paper (that Bush once called 'just a god damned piece of paper') called the United States Constitution, you the Congress have the authority to impeach, convict and remove the president, the vice-president, and any of their appointees.

This is just one more in a long list of moves on the part of my spineless political party not to do the job that the American public elects them to do every two years. SO WHAT if the impeachment won't be concluded with a conviction, the trial will be able to bring out all sorts of misdeeds and outright lies that these two bastards have perpetrated.

Maybe, Charlie, the people of your District ought to impeach you in November 2008.
