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 !

Tom Kean Jr.

Perhaps the best chance that the Republicans had of picking up a Democratic seat in the U S Senate just went up in flames. Thomas Kean Jr. (R-NJ) son of the former Governor alledgedly accepted campaign contributions from executives and family members of a corporation with pending legislation. The same day that Kean, currently a state senator in New Jersey, cast a favorable vote on a budget bill regarding tax exemptions for the Horizon Blue Cross Blue Shield Insurance company, Kean recieved $13,300.00 in campaing contributions from executives and family members of that same company, including $4,100.00 from the companies CEO. It seems that Republicans just can't help themselves they are addicted to money.

Kean is currently involved in a very tight race to unseat the incumbent Bob Menendez (D-NJ), who was appointed by Governor John Corzine when Corzine was elected Governor and resigned his Senate seat. It was starting to look like Kean could possibly prevail over the Democrat in the Democratic state but it seems that this is now unlikely in the light of these serious allegations.
