Getting Interesting Now...

WASHINGTON (AP) - President Bush, moving toward a constitutional showdown with Congress, asserted executive privilege Thursday and rejected lawmakers' demands for documents that could shed light on the firings of federal prosecutors.
Bush's attorney told Congress the White House would not turn over subpoenaed documents for former presidential counsel Harriet Miers and former political director Sara Taylor. Congressional panels want the documents for their investigations of Attorney General Alberto Gonzales' stewardship of the Justice Department.
This refusal paves the way for the impeachment of both Bush an Cheney, since Cheney has already refused to comply with a congressional subpoena.

How is it going to go?

A possible scenario:

Cheney gets impeached and convicted first, something the Republicians are already plotting, and then they annoint as VP one of the favored presidental candidates.

Then Bush gets the big toss, allowing the favored presidental candidate to be installed as El Presidente.

That keeps the Speaker of the house, Nancy Pelosi, out of the picture.

Then, they can both run in the upcoming election--as already sitting office holders--without the Bush smell on either of them.

There will be plenty of smell, but not of the Bush variety.

Good going Repubs, a great scheme.

I don't see how they could impeach Bush over this; he is actually within his rights witholding these documents.

You really want that Papist ditz Nanci Pelosi running this country? Barak Obama would be better, but he's the Democrat "Man Who Knows Too Much", Ron Paul's mirror...i.e: Not a hope in hell of getting nominated, let alone elected.

The American Sheeple want freebees, not freedom.
