KIETH OLBERMANN;
"The best anchor on the best cable news program on the air today !"
MSNBC weeknights at 8pm Eastern. Keith gives balance to the
corporate right slanted news programming of MSNBC and Fox News.
It is the position of The
Heartland Progressive that the Impeachment of George W. Bush should be
raised to the level of a National Priority. George W. Bush has
disgraced the image of America in the eyes of the world.
Through his repeated and
blatant violations of the "rule of law", and the Constitution, he has
put our Liberty and our very Democracy at grave risk. George W
Bush is personally responsible for the needless deaths of uncounted 10's
of thousands of people in Iraq and the greater Middle East. He has
cost nearly 3000 of our Sons and Daughters, serving in the military,
their lives. He has put us, our children, and our grandchildren
deeply in debt. It will take generations to pay off the trillion
dollars or more that this ill-conceived, illegal, and immoral "War of
choice" that he has waged, not in our name, but in the name of corporate
profiteering and oil.
IT IS A MORAL IMPERATIVE THAT
HE BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE !

In my view this is the most callous and vicious politician of our time. Dick Cheney, the current Vice-President is no stranger to Washington. A former Chief of staff to Gerald Ford he got his start as a congressman from Wyoming and was a staffer in the Nixon White House. I'd tell you about his brilliant military career but the only brilliant part about it is his tenacity at avoiding the draft.
Mar 20, 1963- July 23,1963-Oct 14, 1964-Nov 1, 1965 and Jan 1967... These are the dates that Cheney recieved his five deferrments from the draft. You see, Dick Cheney doesn't mind making you sacrifice your life for your country, but he is certainly not going to put his butt on the line to do it. Cheney is often described as a "Chicken-Hawk" and this is the reason why.
Political power and money is what motivates this man. He has been described as the most powerful Vice-President in the history of our country. Dick Cheney will do anything to hold his power; he is rutheless, he will lie, cheat and steal to get what he wants.
Cheney is the former CEO of Halliburton, he has made a fortune from profits to that company from government contracts and the Texas oil bidness. Many would argue that U S foreign policy is based on oil opportunities throughout the mideast region. Many believe and I do too that Cheney was very hawkish about the War in Iraq because he wanted the vast oil reserves beneath the Iraqui sands. Not to mention the billions of dollars that Halliburton and it's subsidiaries have made from no-bid government contracts, given freely , by the Bush administration.
Dick Cheney ipitomizes the type of men who are running our government. Do not think for a moment that they would not do anything in their power to keep that power. Start a war, hype terrorism, hack into voting machines and underhanded political strategies along the lines of the disgraceful attack on John Kerry by the swift boat veterans.
If we are foing to keep our democracy, then men like this need to be removed from office, and the only way to accomplish that is to remove the completely corrupt Republican Party from their offices. On Nov 7th, register and vote to Dump the Republicans!
