to unseat them as well. By the time an actual impeachment of bush came through many of these scandals will have seriosuly enveloped them all (except for Snow I haven't seen his name embroiled in controversy yet). Also by the time that impeachment were to take effect we would be probably two maybe one and half years out from the next presidential election. That is not enough time for the neocons to reassert their power especially with so many of them in deep shit anyways. As much as I dislike some traditional conservatives they are on the whole a helluva lot better for the world and the US than the goons in power at the moment and I dare say that that is what we would probably have for the remaining time of republican rule should impeachment come to pass.
The election in 08 will very much be the Dems to lose if half this admin goes down in indictments and impeachment. We all know how deep and widespread corruption is in the GOP but most of their supporters especially the more moderate ones don't believe it ( not because of part loyalty but it all sound too tinfoily to them too CT), once they find out that indeed many of the wild tinfoil hate crowd CTs were somewhat true I imagine a good chunk staying home or even switching parties.
Basically in my eyes an impeachment helps to hamstring the 'pubs for the next couple of years. Even if Cheney gets to sit as prez the entire time his admin and party are going to crippled and no one will trust them to do the right thing. Thats a good good thing.
my take on it FWIW.
