Impeachment is a joke
On June 9, 2008, Ohio representative Dennis Kucinich introduced Articles of Impeachment calling for the removal of George W. Bush from office. Kucinich defined 35 articles, each far more serious than the articles on which Bill Clinton was impeached.
Bill Clinton was impeached for fondling a young lady who initiated the tryst. For Republicans and 85% of Americans, sex, even when consensual, is a more serious breach of American values than subverting and shredding the Constitution. The forgiving side of Republicans permits them to pardon the same actions by members of their own party. Arnold Schwartzenegger has a boob groping addiction that is juvenile and psychotic. That means Arnold is a typical hypocritical Republican.
The problem is that 85% of Americans lack the political and intellectual sophistication to govern a nation. Americans are not yet evolved sufficiently for democracy, nor for the third millennium. That American barbarians are the most armed nation presents a serious threat to the world.
The U.S. political system was flawed from the beginning. It was a compromise that its more civilized creators believed would be revised in the near future. That didn’t happen. The founders distrusted democracy. They preferred an oligarchy of white male landowners. They included cumbersome safety valves to ensure the rabble did not take power.
Tangentially to the unsophisticated electorate is the lapse into a two-party system. In reality, the two parties are like the Roman God Janus. They are two faces sharing and concealing the same head.
The Republican crime spree, including subversion of the Constitution and contempt for international law and human decency is more serious than a billion fondling incidents. Yet the American electorate and supposedly opposition party have no stomach for challenging crimes of this magnitude.
The 85% group, the rabble, has a tribal mindset. The next 2%, the rulers, has an absence of mindset. The remaining 13%, the righteous few, has a global mindset. This composition can’t govern itself with competency, integrity and morality. The result is a rogue state devoid of values and principles.
If a leader is unaccountable, that leader is not a president. That leader is a monarch, dictator, autocrat or totalitarian.
A parliament or legislature does not hold a leader accountable when it fears the leader or does not oppose the leader’s arbitrary actions. George W. Bush is responsible for more than a million deaths, including the needless, senseless deaths of more than 4,000 Americans, making him the world’s worst criminal since Richard Nixon. Since he won’t spend a day in jail, he is not a citizen of a civilized nation or a nation with a functioning justice system. Bush can and did commit crimes of treason, subversion, theft of tax dollars and genocide. This could happen only in a nation of savages.
