Because President Cheney would be such an improvement?

Good! Then Chenney will be president!

A bit late, but otherwise a good plan.

/get rid of the 'soft on crime' Congressmen.

Candidate Feuer pledges that once he gets into office, Bush will no longer be president.

FTA: ""I'm giving Congressman Olver until 5 o'clock tonight (Friday) to say, 'I stand by the will of my constituents,'" Feuer said, adding that he plans to announce his candidacy Monday. "I can't see any retraction from that.""

That's some tough talk there.

Cheney would be impeached as well. So.. umm... President Pelosi?

I see what you did there...

If it came to the point that it looks like both would be booted, the Bush administration would likely concede Cheney, and fight tooth and nail for Bush so that they get removed one at a time.

Wexler is trying to impeach Cheney first. When that happens, evidence will come out that Bush needs impeachment as well.

You guys honestly think of Bush gets impeached, Cheney won't? Besides, if I remember correctly, most of the people calling for impeachment want Cheney impeached first.

Anyway, we shouldn't stop at Bush and Cheney, hwo about getting rid of most of congress who have barely done jack squat positive for this country?

Most of those got the boot in 2006 (Santorum, anybody?) and the rest will follow in 2008.

 
Gosling [TotalFark] 2008-01-26 09:47:15 PM  
So, wait. This guy wants in because he wants to impeach Bush.

Won't Bush be gone by way of the natural election cycle by the time he gets in office?

Robobuu 2008-01-26 09:59:15 PM  
Bah. People are going to be calling to impeach Bush until January 18th, 2009. Because, you know, there's nothing better we have to do than have impeachment proceedings.

Are you west of Boston? Then you're in Western Mass.

cheese2: Last time I checked, this wasn't western MA -

Yea you are. West of Boston = Western Mass. Just like North of NYC = "Upstate New York".

Formerly from Southern Maine. Now in the Southern Tier of New York. Originally from the "Real" upstate NY - Jefferson and St Lawrence County's. If Binghamton NY is "Upstate New York" and Lewiston ME is "A Little town in Northern Maine" to radio folks in Boston, then west of I93 is western Mass.

That what you get when a large group of self-important A-Holes in urban areas run your state. Happens in NY, Happens in MA.

 
cheese2 2008-01-26 10:42:52 PM  
IlGreven: Are you west of Boston? Then you're in Western Mass.

"Western Massachusetts is a loosely defined geographical region of the state of Massachusetts which contains the Berkshires and the Pioneer Valley. Most commonly, the region is considered to include Berkshire, Franklin, Hampshire, and Hampden counties."

Better luck next time.

Urban A-Holes' beliefs != fact. Just sayin. I get what you mean, though.

even if bush gets to leave office, can't congress still do nasty things to him afterward were they so inclined?

not that i care if they do at that point, but i'm sure there's a farker out there who knows all this stuff.

I know you're being sarcastic, but I think justice being served IS one of the most important things we should do as a country.

Yes, he is another Bush Derangement Syndrome Moonbat. Hell I hope he gets elected.

Not much to worry about if they don't even know where western is.
Barely funcional?
Bush Derangement Syndrome will have run its course as the convention nears and someone has to articulate a plan besides impeach Bush, and yes his term and most of those around him ends Jan. 19 2359 2009.
That is!

Unless he sees the need to declare martial law and suspend elections.

According to some, a senario where a segment of the voters have no place to vote due to natural disaster or external modification of a major city or cities by nefarious means. That would be a 911 type hit would do it.

Since Darth accomplished that feat in NY [ also according to some] who knows it's possible.

Yogi Berra said it best! It ain't over till the fat Lady Sings.
Show a little appreation as I really had to dig deep for this one .

And in California, where "Northern California" starts in Santa Barbara.

/from my perspective, the real "Northern California" starts somewhere around Ukiah. Everything south of there (I'm looking at you, SF) is more like LA than Humboldt and Mendocino counties.

Meh, I have heard that scenario over and over again. Amazing since Bush was supposed to suspend both the 04 and 06 elections and every week another moonbat is predicting that Bushhitler is going to declare Martial Law.

The first congressional district (new window) of Massachusetts reaches from the NY border to Central MA.

John Olver has been a great rep and is extremely well-liked throughout his district. I don't think he has much to worry about.

 
MrGMan 2008-01-27 12:20:58 AM  
Vote for MrGMan in 2008!!!

I promise, if elected, that Bush and Cheney will be removed from office in January of 2009.

By next year it will be too late.

It's really pointless to impeach now.

Car_Ramrod: Candidate Feuer pledges that once he gets into office, Bush will no longer be president.

And he'll break that pledge because the new Congress convenes on January 3 but the presidential term doesn't expire until January 20.

 
Milpool 2008-01-27 09:20:22 AM  
good luck trying to chimpeach BOOOOOOSH next year after you've sent someone to do it. He or she would at best have 20 days to get it done.

ZOMG BUSH

 
VulpesVulpes 2008-01-27 10:18:47 AM  
What? This is absurd, having the congressmen bow to the will of their constituients instead of the corporations who pay them. If this dangerous trend continues we're likely to have a government for the people, by the people and even worse, OF the people!
