Dubs Getting Desperate?

I guess the only thing that W really worries about is political support. Not actually winning this awful war in Iraq. Not paying any attention to the
majority of people in this country that want it to end. Not the
soldiers and
ex-generals that have called for it. Certainly not the Democratic Party's feeble, half-assed requests for an end to fighting.
But the last pillars of support are finally beginning to weaken. Republican Senators are starting to wobble. The Democrats are asking tough questions and demanding information about the Iraq War, the
Justice Department firings, and
Libby's commuted sentence. Senator Kucinich is submitting
Articles of Impeachment for
Darth Cheney. Meanwhile, W is throwing "
Executive Privilege" at anything that moves. The scent of
desperation is in the air.
I really think they thought they could get away with it all. And truthfully they still just might. But I have no doubt that
history will judge these two so-called leaders as incompetent, cowardly and extremely detrimental to both America as a country and its reputation in the world.
I am hopeful, though, that the slow wheels of justice will continue to turn, and that maybe, just maybe, before 2009 rolls around, we will be able to witness the amazing power of the Constitution at work.
