To the people that maintain the ridiculous position that George Bush should be impeached, I ask how are things in fantasy land? What is it like to believe in the tooth fairy? I ask this because the basis that they use for the impeachment of George Bush is so far from the truth, the arguments they use are the stuff of legends and fantasy. They live within an eternal fog, blinded by concepts of conservative conspiracy, domination of oil assets, and U.S. desire for global empire. If they would only come up for air once in a while and take a fair look at the world, they might glimpse how wrong they are.

The common diatribe goes something like the following:

George Bush "was just as certain that Saddam had weapons of mass destruction, and was about to unleash a nuclear attack on Israel." (quote from Bruce A. Gorcyca, Helium Article).

There was never a claim of any nuclear attack, that is an outright lie.

"and that the Iraqis were linked to Al Qaeda and the events of 911. On all issues, his wisdom and knowledge proved to be certainly wrong."

George Bush never claimed that this was his wisdom. He received reports from the CIA, MI6 (United Kingdom), and intelligence services of France and Russia. Any leader receiving reports not only from U.S. intelligence sources but internationally, if he had not acted, in retrospect, would have been summarily hanged for incompetence. It does not matter one iota what we found after the war. George Bush acted according to the best intelligence of the time and did what the American people should expect of a competent leader. The anti-Bush camp would most likely have preferred a Bill Clintonesque strategy of checking poll numbers and returning to the UN for more meetings to decide on new economic sanctions against Iraq (meaning, to really decide how the politicians could embezzle more money from another oil for food program!).

One can almost feel the boiling anger when the liberal left writes "Less than a decade ago, millions of Americans demanded impeachment of President Clinton for having an affair with an intern. No innocent civilians and children were killed..."
I beg to differ. It is arguable that President Clinton was so distracted by his late night antics in the oval office, that he failed to fight terror. Clinton admitted to this failure himself in a recent interview (although he does not admit to being distracted, rather that he gave it his best shot, but failed). I put it to all liberals, the deaths resulting from the war on terror have resulted because of the growth and strength of terrorist organizations which occurred throughout the 1990s. This was under President Clinton's watch, not George Bush's. Just as Ronald Reagan had to come into the White House to clean up the huge mess left by Jimmy Carter, so to George Bush has been dealing with a mess that Clinton should have been working on since 1994.

Those that characterize the Iraqi war as a fiasco are simply the same people that want the U.S. to lose. They fail to see anything positive resulting from the war, being spoon fed by the liberal left only negative media stories. What about a world with no more Saddam Hussein? What about the serious improvement in Iraqi infrastructure? What about the new democratic Iraqi government? What about Iraqi elections? All these things are ignored for it is the will of liberals to see the U.S. fail, to see the strategy of a conservative president falter at the hands of terrorists. If they would only take a look around, they might realize they are siding with the enemy. Impeaching George Bush is not the way to go, in the end they should just go impeach themselves.
