November 7th Midterm Election

[Datruth]

What do nazi's have to do with the Midterm Election lol.

Well anyways i'm waiting for the Senator, George Allen, In virginia to admit defeat.

He's down by 7 thousand votes and the Democratic candidate is basically assured victory, in my opinion anyways.

I hate all these formalities where they recount votes, check to see if there were problems, blah blah blah, the dems should take that seat, thus giving them power over the senate.
This is a big situation, the senate has many more powers than the house of Reps and would be a great asset to the Dem's future strategies.

Stretegy #1: Whip George Bush into Submission 

Seriously, he needs to get off his high horse now, time for him to get whipped.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~EDIT

JUST IN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

DEMS WIN THE SENATE!!!!!!!!!

* Datruth cries       

THERE IS A GOD, THERE IS!!!!! THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ya, a bit overly dramatic lol

If the democrats own both the senate and the house can impeachment proceeding be far off? George has been caught telling more important lies than Bill ever was. Of course I don't think two years is enough to finish that process.

Impeachment, For sure

Think about it, 6 years, 6 WHOLE YEARS, without the Oversight of congress.

Ofcourse he's done something stupid.

There is a reason why we have oversight and when the Dems do some digging they'll find that George has been as Dirty as the rest.

The number one issue this election: CORRUPTION.

I very much doubt there will be an impeachment. Rather the dems will just keep tight control on what GWB tries to do for the next two years.

[bilbous]

Do you really think the 'crats won't go tit for tat if they control the house and senate? I wouldn't put it past any politician to be small-minded and venal. Of course sitting outside is a different perspective than amidst the fray.
That said it would be an action  that could backfire on them even though there have been many calls for impeachment. I think it would be unprecidented, has there ever been two presidents in a row subjected to this process?

[Datruth]

So who do you want to be the president in 08?

So who do you want to be the president in 08?

Nader.

Nader.

Seriously?

I really want Al Gore or Clinton to run again.

Nader is.... well, good but.... not realistic.

Nonetheless he's an awesome choice though.

Al Gore would be good, it's just that Nader would be better.  To my mind, the changes Nader wants to make are the changes we need to make a society.  Clinton is better than Bush (IMO) but I'm not down with the "republican-light" thing.

See although nader would make a Great president, it would be near impossible for him to muster up the kind of votes Al gore would get.

IS anyone else here mad that Al gore LOST the President Seat, even though HE WON MORE VOTES!?

That really made me mad and it lives with me till this day.

I'm convinced that Al Gore won the election and that the Supreme Court cancelled the election and appointed Bush.  The language of the legal document they produced basically says that they had to appoint Bush because many people thought Al Gore won based on the election results.  Add in the fact that so many democratic votes were thrown away, plus other forms of election frawd, and it becomes pretty obvious that the election was rigged.

I hate the electoral College.

As we saw in the last election, it doesn't do justice to the votes of the people.

Gore completely won the Popular vote(total votes in U.S), but because he lost in florida(which is still disputed) he lost the election.

And now the U.s has gone to hell.

We owe like 6 trillion dollars.

About 25k per family.....

Pray for us Zanzibar... pray.... we need it

Stewart/Colbert '08!

I just had to get that out of my system...  Sorry.

I don't think they have real grounds to impeach Bush, that's the thing.  They disagree with him, but you can't impeach for that.  Or at least you're not supposed to.

[bilbous]

Well he lied about the intel, he lied about "we've never been about staying the course", they went after Clinton because he lied about Monica, so I think turnabout is fair play. Not to mention all the unconstitutional things he did for which he later rammed through retroactive justification. At least this is how it looks from here. Still it would not surprise me either way.

The difference is that Clinton was under oath.

Now, what they CAN impeach him for is exposing that whistleblower's wife who was in the CIA.  They exposed her as a CIA agent to punish him for saying that they had no evidence of WMDs in Iraq.  It put her life in danger and it also revealed an oil company as a CIA operation.  The CIA were using that company to gather intelligence on terrorists, but now the terrorists won't work with them.
