It seems these days that there are quite a few people who think that President George W. Bush should be impeached. While I'm not surprised at this, I was however surprised when I read an article that said that John Kerry wanted to impeach President Bush on the basis of his misleading the US. Is that really any reason to get rid of one president, when the next president would also probably mislead the US? It seems that during these day and ages misleading is the name of the game.

Sen. John Kerry said on Thursday that if the Democrats retake the House, there’s a "solid case” to impeach President Bush on a charge that he misled the country about pre-war intelligence.


Speaking to about 100 veterans of his 2004 White House campaign at Finn McCool’s bar in Washington, Kerry praised Democrats who were working on Senate and House campaigns

Impeaching a president is a long and arduous task. It is not a common thing for US citizens to call for an impeachment of its Commander-in-Chief. I mainly posted this article because Sen. John Kerry is backing with the US with trying to get an impeachment started. However, where would that leave us.

It would leave us in the hands of Cheney and he probably wouldn't able to handle the stress of it all. It wouldn't be too long before he would leave the office of President. Our country would still probably be ran into the ground like it is.

So the question still remains. Would an impeachment of President George W. Bush be the best thing for us or would it be worse for us?

There are many things that the current adminstration should be ousted for, however, I'm not sure that an impeachment is in our best interests, as it would leave us with Cheney, who, frankly, scares me ten times as much as Bush. If people are really so interested in ousting the current government, someone needs to start a rebellion (after all, it is one of our rights as Americans). Personally, I'm pretty happy with the notion that Bush won't be able to be re-elected. Next election is a new race for both parties.

Admittedly, I did vote for Kerry, but that was only because Bush had screwed up so horribly during his first term that I felt I'd vote for the only one that had a chance of beating Bush, instead of the third party candidate I really believed in. I just wanted Bush out. In hindsight, it wasn't necesarilly the best choice for me to make, but regardless, even if I voted for the third-party candidate, we still have Bush as President.

As much as I want to see Bush out of office, there's still really no point in an impeachment (much like there was no point in Clinton's impeachment), as the result will either leave us with Bush until 2008 or Cheney until 2008.

Would you rather have Azogthoth or Cthulu? Both choices are bad. Take the lesser of the evils. At least with a moron being the mouthpiece, he can still screw up and not accomplish as much as the puppetters want to accomplish. Cheney is the one that really scares me, as his politics are identical to Bush's, but he's got one hell of a brain to back it up. You think it's bad now?

(Edit for spelling)
