Scarborough Panel Discusses Impeachment of ‘Isolated’ ‘Delusional’ President Bush (Last month)
http://newsbusters.org/node/9786

MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough invited a group of “heavy hitters” on to “Scarborough Country” Wednesday, and the discussion quickly moved in the direction of why impeachment proceedings of President Bush should be commenced due to his handling of the war in Iraq (video available here). After addressing what the President said at his morning press conference, Scarborough got the bash-fest started:

Yes, those words coming from the man who`s decided the only way to turn things around in Iraq is by sending in more troop. Despite being told by the Joint Chiefs, Colin Powell and the man running the Iraq war, General Abizaid, that sending more troops to Iraq would only get more Americans killed…Now, seeming to confirm his opponent`s worst suspicions that this president does not value the opinions of those with whom he disagrees, Mr. Bush has now decided to go it alone in Iraq against the wishes of his allies, against the desires of his fellow countrymen, and yes, even against the advice of his own generals.

Scarborough then got his first guest involved in the bashing:

Michael, Crowley, you know, the situation seems to become more and more grim in Iraq, and the White House -- the situation there is every bit as disturbing as each day passes. How can this president thumb his nose at the very military leaders who are fighting this war in Iraq just because they know that more troops in Iraq will not win this war?

MICHAEL CROWLEY, "THE NEW REPUBLIC": Yes, I mean, Joe, there`s something very unsettling about what we`re starting to hear from Bush. For so long, his mantra was that he was taking his lead from the commanders on the ground, and that was this -- you know, this ultimate card he could play of credibility...

1. Bush is a fool of course
but he's a sideshow. The main problem is Cheney and the neocons he brought in. What Bush will be talking about tonight is a pure neocon
plan, dictated for him by chickenhawk neocon guru Frederick Kagan of the neocon American Enterprise Institute. Kagan claims to be a military expert which is pure crap. The neocons and their foreign allies are just as big a subversive threat to America as the Communists of the 30's and the 40's. They're not only subversive, they're plain incompetent. Go to the American Enterprise Institute website and you'll see Kagan's plan with specifics. Bush will be mouthing every one tonight, and the BS will flow deep. Wonder how the American military likes taking orders from the neocons, because that seems to be the fool puppet Bush's only raison d'etre.....
