"Libby says Bush authorized a leak of classified info for political purposes. Using legitimate presidential powers (declassification) for illegitimate purposes (to make a political attack) is the very definition of abuse of power. Yet again the president admits to an impeachable offense. Will anything come of it this time?"

What is more heinous than lying a country into war?
Why did Bush invade Iraq? He knew they didn't have WMD. They had a no fly zone since 1991.
They surely weren't an imminent threat. Saddam said that he didn't have WMD. How do you prove a negative?

The Weapons Inspectors all said that he didn't have them.
Perhaps Bush wanted to take the voter's minds off the recession of 2002?
Perhaps he wanted to enrich all his war contractor donors?
Perhaps he wanted to avenge his father's big mistake of the first gulf war?
Well, Bush won't say why he invaded Iraq.
We have 2400 troops who died for nothing.
We are left with 17,000 maimed soldiers, missing arms, legs and eyes.
Iraq is left with over 100,000 dead and no public services.
It's no wonder that they didn't welcome us with open arms and flowers as Cheney suggested before the invasion.
Yeah, for this offense alone, Bush should be impeached. What is more heinous than lying a country into war?
According to the Arizona Daily Sun, "Two young men charged with sodomizing 18 boys at a youth camp last year have been offered a plea agreement that may net them little jail time and no record of sexual assault." The men "were charged in January with 18 counts of aggravated assault and 18 counts of kidnapping for the incidents, which happened at a youth camp last June." Why such a light sentence for such heinous crimes? Well, it just so happens that one of the men is the son of Arizona Senate President Ken Bennett (R-Obviously).
The younger Bennett confessed to police that he and Wheeler sodomized the 11- to 14-year-old boys with broomsticks and flashlights in at least 40 incidents, court documents show. Yavapai County prosecutors now say they'll drop all but one assault charge and likely recommend little or no jail time if Bennett agrees to plead guilty.
Morals and values? Personal responsibility? Pshaw! Go ahead, sodomize those 11-to-14-year-old-boys with broomsticks! You're the son of an elected Republican - it's not like you're going to get into trouble or anything.
