Last week’s historical election was a great accomplishment, but it is only the first step in reclaiming our nation and re-establishing a government which is truly of, by, and for We The People. Our job is not done.
In the midst of the Great Depression of the 30s, several titans of American industry approached General Smedley Butler in hopes that he would be willing to lead a military overthrow of the U.S. government. These men – including Prescott Bush – were traitors by every definition of the word, literal and figurative.
Instead of cooperating, General Butler reported the plot to FDR; however, since the cooperation of these rich and powerful men was needed for the passage of the desperately needed New Deal, he struck a deal with them rather than prosecuting: if they dropped all political opposition to his plan, he would not have them charged, and their crimes would be swept under the rug. It was a politically expedient, understandable, practical decision. However, it also left the avarice-driven criminals running free amongst us. Prescott Bush was elected to the U.S. Senate, and here we are.
Richard Nixon did not get away with his “if the President does it, it’s not illegal” modus operandi, but he was pardoned, the full truth will never be known, and far too many guilty parties were never held accountable. They were left free to become operatives in future administrations, and here we are.
While the much-loved, charming and well-meaning (but ill-equipped) Ronald Reagan smiled for the cameras, a shadow government wheeled and dealed, arranged for the overthrow of duly democratically elected leaders of other countries when they refused to play ball with ours, and even equipped and funded TERRORISTS in South America and the Middle East. Most were pardoned, left free to rise to positions of power again, and here we are.
Right now, five military veterans — from Veterans for Peace — are occupying a 35-foot high ledge at the National Archive Building and have raised a 22×8-foot banner reading, “DEFEND OUR CONSTITUTION. ARREST BUSH AND CHENEY: WAR CRIMINALS!” The veterans currently risking arrest have declared their intention to stay on the ledge, fasting for 24 hours “in remembrance of those who have perished and those still suffering from the crimes of the Bush administration,” according to a written statement.
Many reasonable people believe that seeking the impeachment of the Deluded Decider (and his Dastardly Dick) at this late date would be a foolish waste of time; however, I respectfully disagree, for the following reasons:
1. Vincent Bugliosi, John Dean, Elizabeth Holtzman, Dave Lindorff & Barbara Olshansky, and others have fully documented the impeachable high crimes and misdemeanors that have been committed by this avarice-driven misadministration. On June 9, 2008, Dennis Kucinich formally read Thirty-Five Articles of Impeachment into the Congressional Record. The case has been made, as Vincent Bugliosi makes perfectly clear in his book (shown at right). The evidence already gathered is both well documented and incontrovertible.
