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 !

John Kerry...Mission accomplished
The “Swift-boating” of John Kerry is now complete. A poll released today finds that John Kerry has plummeted to the bottom of a list of 20 politicians rated on their likeability. Only 39% of respondents had favorable feelings about John Kerry. Amy Robach of Fox News affiliate MSNBC put it this way; “...Wait till you see where John Kerry finished...”

I bring this up to remind us all that the echo chamber is a very effective tool in the fight for political power in this country. Despite devastating losses in the 2006 mid term elections these right wing zealots still control the media. The decorated war hero who could have saved the lives of so many in Iraq is less popular than the man who’s narcissistic, and messiahanic crusade has claimed the lives of untold tens of thousands of people and destabilized the Middle East for probable generations.

I worked on the Kerry Campaign in 2004 and now I wouldn’t support John Kerry either, not because I consider him any less honest or dedicated but rather because I feel that he can no longer win. He has been so badly beaten up by the right that he no longer has any credibility. It is an absolute outrage what these people are capable of...

Al Gore is another example of their power. In my opinion Al Gore was elected President in 2000, but these people used their power to overturn the will of the people and gave the job to Bush. George W. Bush is not one tenth the man that Al Gore was and is. If you have not seen An Inconvenient Truth I encourage you to rent it,

Watching the movie I was struck by the image of a man who actually thinks about things that are important to the world and to the people of the world. I tried to think of George W. Bush actually putting realistic thought, or humanity, or compassion, into any issue that has confronted him over the past six years and could not think of any.

According to news reports, Bush has engaged on a campaign to raise $500,000,000.00 dollars for his Presidential Library to be located on the campus of SMU along with a “think tank” the “Center for Democracies”... God help us all...
