Yep, and if Bush had NOT invaded Iraq right now the dems would be out there saying Bush let Saddam get away with having WMD's and put our country at risk. Then, they would be talking about impeaching him for failing to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.
I disagree with Kondrake on one point. The dems are waaay over the edge on overplaying their hand. They are out McGoverning McGovern. Moreover, they peaked a bit early. There is too much time between now and the 2006 elections. The Libby case is falling apart (and could bring the credibility of the MSM even further down the toilet), DeLay's indictment is looking to be more and more the direct work of the dems, and Bush is swinging back with both barrels.
i agree 100%. they are going overboard with this. its gonna totally backfire on them if they even think about impeaching the president. good thing they are peaking now instead of next year. i think they have already peaked and a year is an eternity in politics.
Remember with Dems its not the facts of the case, its the seriousness of the accusation.
They'll scream from the rooftops, "Bush lied", and he "twisted" intelligence. If they win the House back in '06 (which I think they won't), watch out.
While it is good to see the White House finally responding to the Democrat accusations, a response based on refutation alone will not be enough. The President must hit them with the big fact that 9/11 happened and fighting this war there was far better than the Democrat alternative of fighting it here.
