Talk of impeachment

If you’d be interested in an article written by Carl Bernstein that lays out a case for why both Democrats and Republicans in Congress should now be investigating the Bush presidency with an eye toward impeachment, you should really read this article.

Bernstein, who has a bit of cred on the subject, piles on parallels between this Bush administration and Nixon’s during Watergate. The article is packed with examples of abuse of power in both presidencies and suggests that a Senate investigation now may actually be the best bet for a Republican Congress in this election year, not to mention the best thing for our country.
