Last night my eyes began to bleed. Yes, sitting, silent, staring and stunned by the latest Zogby poll my eyes, in total disbelief, began hemorrhaging. Seems 50% of we Americans believe Bush should not be impeached even if he lied about his reasons for going to war!
So this is where the strong partisanship we enjoy today leads us? So blinded half of us are willing to risk the last remnants of the nation?
I recall former president whatshisname was impeached over his misinterpretation of the definition for the word "sex." Opinions differ whether that was warranted.
But let me get this straight. If our leader wants a war bad enough to lie the nation into it, into convincing us to risk our sons and daughters dying for it , that's okay with half of us? To die for a lie? I don't know what sedative we're on, but whatever it is, let me have some more!
When Bush assumed control of the presidency, I joked that "he was a moron, which probably explains his popularity with the American public." I was just kidding about half of that. I don't believe our president is a moron. But I'm not so sure about the other half.
