		<description>Wichita:



You may never see this because I am late to the disucssion but here goes anyway.



This idea that France, Canada, Germany, et al, are not cooperating with the US in CT is a product of Kerry propaganda.  These countries, whether they like our policies or not recognize the this cooperation is necessary for their own security.  I can assure you as an intelligence professional that this cooperation happens on a daily basis.  You, like most people of good will, who believe that this isn&#039;t happening should spend less time paying attention to the shills in the MSM.

		<description>mean okie:



Since you brought up the notion of &quot;war crimes&quot; do you think that Kerry&#039;s self confessed war crimes should be prosecuted?Now some say that Kerry never did the things that he confessed to and that it was a self serving political sop to the political climate of the time but as far as his own confession he stated the he himself committed transgressions of the Geneva Convention. Is this the man that you want to lead your country? I don&#039;t think the statue of limitations has run out on these actions.

		<description>MeanOkie,



Did you miss your meds today?  Track down your little plastic box and find the slot marked &quot;TH&quot; or &quot;Thur&quot; or something similar and swallow whatever is in that slot.  Hopefully you&#039;ll feel better then.  As we say in the trade, &quot;Love Ya, bye!&quot;

		<description>Mean okie:



OK, I will snap at the troll bait.Exactly what is the impeachable offense, what proof do you have and don&#039;t send us to some op-ed link.Tell us in your own words what legal basis do you have for President Bush&#039; suppossed crimes. Soldiers dying is not an impeachable offense.What is the crime and what proof do you have.Remember Moore has been debunked and the 9-11 commision has stated that Bush did not lie and the CIA info, although incorrect, was what Bush stated it was. relying on faulty info is not a lie nor is it a crime.If it is then Clinton should go to jail for the asprin factory bombing and kerry should go to jail for authorizing the war while relying on the same intel that Bush used. If you are saying that Clinton and Kerry should be punished too then you may have a point.

		<description>Certainly it would serve justice to impeach George W. Bush.



As many have commented, there is a mountain of evidence to see to this...but the fallen condition of the Congress assures that it&#039;s politically impossible.



In other words his crimes are overwhelmingly sufficient and easy to demonstrate and prove, but there is insufficient political will to prosecute them.



Another term granted this fool might give us, finally, enough political will to go after him.



Myself, I&#039;m for handling the matter domestically at first, and then handing G.W. and several of his inner circle over to some international tribunal for trial as war criminals.  In terms of justice, the case for doing so is clear.



As for those who continue to support this regime, I count only two types.  In the more forgivable case, some blinding combination of ignorance and stupidity coupled with the evil that is the acceptance of or even the enthusiasm for those many evil deeds accomplished by this criminal elite must allow many that horrible and soul threatening mistake.



In the unforgivable case---well, you already know well enough who you are.  And thereís no point in worrying about your souls.

		<description>And what to make of this?  Another extremely rich (and Hollywood) fatcat coughing up huge dollars to the Party of the Little Man.  This one allegedly has mob ties.  Wonder what he wants for his money?

		<description>Here&#039;s another link (Jim Miller&#039;s site) where there&#039;s a presentation of poll numbers comparing Dem delegates to general Dems and all voters.  I don&#039;t know that a similar poll of Rep delegates wouldn&#039;t show a similar disconnect.
