79. and speaking of the Senate, can anybody here name me 20 Republicans
who will vote with the Democrats to CONVICT and remove Bush and Cheney from office??

IMPEACHMENT WILL NOT MEAN DIDDLY-SHIT UNLESS BUSH AND CHENEY ARE CONVICTED.

I'll say it again:
IMPEACHMENT WILL NOT MEAN DIDDLY-SHIT UNLESS BUSH AND CHENEY ARE CONVICTED.

Remember, while the House does indeed draw up the Articles of Impeachment (indictment), it's the
Senate that renders judgement (acquit or convict).

You need 2/3 majority in the Senate (67 votes) for conviction.

And there is nothing written in stone that says every Democrat and Independent will vote to convict
(especially not Joe Lieberman, I-Party of One)

Believe me, nothing on G*d's great earth would please me better than to see articles of impeachment drawn up against these bastards.

But right now, we just ain't got the numbers in Congress.
