GOP Swept from Power in 2006; Impeachment Looms

I am ambivalent after reading the prophetic "GOP Swept from Power in 2006; Impeachment Looms" from Bernard Weiner and Ernest Partridge at Crisis Papers. I hope none of their pessimistic predictions come to pass (an economy on the brink of depression, a continuing Iraq war, blacklists for dissenters, etc.), but Washington badly needs change.

Norman Solomon's "The Key to Impeachment" at Tom Paine covers the same ground, but takes an approach grounded in history: Nixon, Reagan's Iran-Contra, and Bush I's Gulf War I.

Impeachment is an idea whose time has come: not through political machinations supported by little more than abject hatred, but through being richly deserved. It can't happen soon enough.
