It Is Now Time for The Democrats to Impeach Vice Criminal Cheney

    This piece of shit has to go! Now! Most of you know that I am speaking  about the fact that Vice President Cheney has exempted his office from from the Requirements for Protecting Classified Information. this is a presidential order that this crook is pretty much tossing aside and it would lead one to believe that this punk and his lower-level employees have many things to hide from the public.

  Cheney makes the claim that his office is not an "entity within the executive branch."  This is dastardly Dick up to his usual tricks once again. My question is this. If Cheney's office isn't part of the executive branch, then why are the taxpayers footing the bill for his salary, residence, trips and his Secret Service coverage. Tricky Dick needs to be forced to repay his income and all of the other bills that you and I have paid for this punk. He needs to move ( be removed ) from his residence and his limo needs to be parked, permanently. if Cheney is not part of the government, then we shouldn't be paying his sorry ass to be anywhere near the White House. The Congress has to begin impeachment proceedings against Cheney as there is no other choice now.

From the Oversight and Government Reform Committee:

Vice President Exempts His Office from the Requirements for Protecting Classified Information

Washington, D.C. — The Oversight Committee has learned that over the objections of the National Archives, Vice President Cheney exempted his office from the presidential order that establishes government-wide procedures for safeguarding classified national security information. The Vice President asserts that his office is not an “entity within the executive branch.”

As described in a letter from Chairman Waxman to the Vice President, the National Archives protested the Vice President’s position in letters written in June 2006 and August 2006. When these letters were ignored, the National Archives wrote to Attorney General Alberto Gonzales in January 2007 to seek a resolution of the impasse. The Vice President’s staff responded by seeking to abolish the agency within the Archives that is responsible for implementing the President’s executive order.

In his letter to the Vice President, Chairman Waxman writes: “I question both the legality and wisdom of your actions. … [I]t would appear particularly irresponsible to give an office with your history of security breaches an exemption from the safeguards that apply to all other executive branch officials.”

   I would recommend that you read Chairman Waxman's letter to Cheney. It's an educational experience.

Rudy Giuliani Is An Ass

  Anyone who pays attention to the politics of the United states knows that Giuliani is nothing but an asshole, and a very good one at that. He's also one to put his money making above his job, as has been pointed out as of late with his getting fired from the Baker Commission for not showing up to do his job. I guess that he's more into ass-kissing and brown-nosing those big time donors than he is in doing what he was elected to do while being the mayor of NYC.

Kagro X over at Daily Kos has a rather insightful look at Mr.( ? ) Giuliani and his priorities.

How much of a prick is Rudy Giuliani?

How much of a prick is Rudy Giuliani? So much that he basically got fired from the Iraq Study Group by James Baker because he never went to any of the meetings.

And where was he instead? Cashing in on his 9/11 celebrity, giving motivational speeches for an organization called Life Win, Inc., which puts on "Get Motivated" (!) seminars all over the country.

You know the drill. Big stage show. Big music. Big lights. Big name celeb tells you to reach for your dreams. Big charge on your credit card.

How big? Big enough to pay Rudy a hundred grand per appearance (he did two while he was supposed to be at ISG meetings).

You know, for a war we got into (and an occupation we continue -- maybe for 50 years) because people like Giuliani told America Iraq was connected to the World Trade Center attack, you'd think the decent thing for Giuliani to do would be to drop his 9/11 grave robbing for a while and see what he could contribute to getting us the hell out of this mess. But then, Giuliani probably knew it was a lie right from the beginning, just like the rest of us.

Either way, I guess we have our answer as to what he can contribute: nothing. So that's what he did.

Keep that in mind, Republican America, next time Giuliani tells some swooning crowd how he felt the 9/11 attacks so much more deeply than the rest of us because he was mayor of the town that blew up because George Bush didn't read his PDBs. Rudy Giuliani has made his millions picking the pockets of the 9/11 dead.

And you just know this guy has the balls to tell crowds that he "felt a calling" to run for president, too. That wasn't God calling, Rudy. That was Baker, asking why your deadbeat ass wasn't showing up for work.

Guess that settles the "Who truly wears the mantle of George W. Bush" question, though, doesn't it?
