Did you see Bush's 1 o'clock press conference yesterday?
He looked as if he'd aged, oh, about six years overnight.

Th best parts were hearing the little jabs he took at his cabinet and him snapping at reporters like an angry puppy.

This result has actually given me some hope! I love it how Dick Cheney was saying how the American people didn't quite understand the complexity of what he was trying to do. What? Like invading a country under a lie of 'weapons of mass destruction' and the banner of 'freedom' so they could plunder it for oil? Yeah, complicated. I desperately hope that this result will snowball down here (as in Australia) as well :)

Don't get too excited, boys and girls. It's still two years 'til Bush goes for good, and we Americans were dumb enough to vote him in twice to begin with.

An unemployed Donald Rumsfeld and a Democratic congress etc. are good things for the world generally. I was starting to consider moving to Latin America- it seems to be about the only part of the world NOT moving dramatically to the right. Now I guess I can stay put for a while.

Two years is too long! Impeach the president now! Grrr!
Seriously though, I've had about enough of this man's fear mongering and hate mongering. I want to see a gay jewish black woman as president. Or really any minority that's a social liberal as a major leader in the government. I'm mad as hell and I'm not going to take it anymore! *Howard Dean-esque yell*

Impeachment means charging with a crime, not removing from office.
Also, when the main attraction of a party becomes "We are the party that is not the other party," perhaps it is not wise to orgasm over their taking office.

Hmmm... I still would like to see GW's impeachment. Not so much Junior getting tossed out on his coconut head, but the trials. I think it's ubsurd we live in a country where one of our leaders was impeached for a "sex scandal" while another doesn't and gets away with being a mini dictator while publically stroking off his big corporation buddies.

Tread carefully friends... Mr. President's actions in Iraq were ludacris, and in no way do I condone Bush's actions, nor do I support his policy, but I am concerned about the democratic sweep.
As for impeachment, is that not a war cry heard often for for many members of office? I seriously think that the threat of impeachment, nor the populace screaming for it carries much sway in this day in age. Perhaps action in the form of lobbying, petition, and use of first amendment rights would gain more heed of these officials. Perhaps not, who's to know?
The liberal agenda is just as skewed as the conservative, and the serious lack of balance on Capital Hill should worry everyone.
I place no stock in either party, and one should truly know that every single one of them has more of a personal manifesto of political maneuvering then that of a holistic one where concerns for our country outweigh the constant bickering of the parties.
The climate shifts, but hold your opinions at bay until one sees what happens. Somthing bodes ill on the horizon, and I truly wish the smaller voices were heard, from uknown reasonable parties.
Sit back on your heels and wait.

I said impeachment because wishing that some sort of debilitating accident would come upon the president and (for me, hopefully) kill him seemed like something that would be really polarizing (because it's wishing for the harm of a man some people love) to put on a website that has no forum's system. I didn't want to some how bring a flame war or anything into this comment system, because I really like it.
I'm not saying that politics should become all about how one party isn't like a different party, because that's a ridiculous way of though, that is destructive to a healthy society. I support voting on the issues, and not by the party system, but sadly not many people vote like that. If I could, I'd try to do away with the two party system and involve many more parties in the voting process. That would be something I would love to live to see.
At the "sex scandal" impeachment, from what I know about it (I speak of only what I know, for I haven't done a whole lot of research into Clinton's impeachement process) Clinton was brought to trial because he lied about having sex with Monica Lewinsky, not because he had sex with her, but because he lied about it. It's still complete bs, no matter what way it's looked at (atleast from the point's of view that I can see at the moment).
The whole political system is slowly coming to a money filled shitty halt, atleast as far as truly great things getting done. The majority of U.S. politicians are career politicians that care more about getting elected than they do about actually working for the people. For that reason I am against lobbying, because for me it encourages politicians to vote for who pays them best, and that leaves the poorer folks out of any representation, along with almost completely screwing over our society.
In general, U.S. politics is such a load of bs that if it were possible at the moment to move, I would do so and go see more of the world. I'm not saying the rest of the world is better, or worse, but to be a truly good citizen then I need to understand multiple view points, and I can only know that through my experiences.
I'm sorry if some of this seems like a waste of your time to read, or off-topic at all, I am really pretty tired but I have to stay awake for six to seven more hours (certain things I said I'd do for people) so my thoughts aren't completely set up in a line tonight.
