What it was like to be asleep at the wheel with the attention span of a goldfish, while your brain-captain is away on permanent vacation, this is just about exactly what that is like (Yes, yet another Sheila Jackson moment.):


We Never Tried To Impeach Bush, Says Democratic Lawmaker Who Co-Sponsored Bush Impeachment Bill

“We did not seek an impeachment of President Bush, because as an executive, he had his authority.”


Texas Democratic Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee argued Wednesday the Republican effort to sue President Obama is nothing but a veiled attempt to impeach him — something Democrats never did to President George W. Bush:


I ask my colleagues to oppose this resolution for it is in fact a veiled attempt at impeachment and it undermines the law that allows a president to do his job. A historical fact: President Bush pushed this nation into a war that had little to do with apprehending terrorists. We did not seek an impeachment of President Bush, because as an executive, he had his authority. President Obama has the authority.

Except former Rep. Dennis Kucinich did actually introduce a bill to impeach Bush in 2008 — and Jackson Lee actually was a co-sponsor to the legislation.

She counts on the stupidity of her voters, just like every other politician.

And it works!

Striking at the Branches of Evil does not accomplish anything as long as the Roots of Evil are allowed to remain in place. Most of the people who occupy the Executive, Legislative, and Judicial Branches as well as their Staffs of Advisors would all have be removed from office, but even that comes with tremendous risks as even more sinister replacemets could take their positions of high power.
