Who the fuck cares what Ralph Nader has to say about anything?

Nader doesn't exactly have any real political weight behind him unless he happens to actually win the election (yeah, right). Even if he did win it would be pointless to call for an impeachment while he's running as bush would be out anyways.

all he's seeming to do is alot of posturing.

Ralph Nader supporters stink. Literally.

The other day, there was a big Ralph Nader speech at the Student Learning Center where I study. As I walked by the auditorium where it was being held I was absolutely overwhelmed by the stench of body odor emanating from the room.

Put down the bong, Ralph. Shit, you couldn't even gather 1000 signatures for your campaign in Oregon. Nobody gives a fuck what you have to say.

Wouldn't it be easier to just vote him out? There's only a few more months until the election, anyway.

Can't have that. Nader would rather steal votes away from Kerry.

Nader

Post by Aaron »

Nader may be an idiot but he has a point. Clinton was impeached for something that happened in his personal life. What Bush has done is a thousand times worse. How is it that no one credible has called for Bush's impeacement. Come on he lied to start a war.

Because nobody can prove that he did, in fact, lie about the Iraq war. You can't impeach the prez just because you think he's a lying bastard. Without a whole boatload of hard evidence, there's not much point.

Besides, the GOP congressional majority would never allow it to actually go through.

It's another way of saying the Republican Party. Stands for the "Grand Ol' Party" which was a nickname way back in the day.

If he were in private industry, he could be sued for criminal negligence. But for some reason, even though he obviously deceived the public, his carefully worded speeches were just vague enough to retain plausible deniability. Gee, what an upstanding model for our younger generation. Never mind the fact that such carefully worded statements obviously imply intent to deceive ...

Not to mention the fact that there are millions of idiots out there who will defend him mindlessly.

The other thread related to impeachment is too contaminated, so I'll say this here.

What's the point of removing Shrubby? Take him out, and Cheney is president. Is that better?
