About "Liberal Idiots"

I know that Dave Obey got pretty upset with some constituents who badgered him in the hallway (in front of a video camera no less) about impeaching Bush. Dave apparently referred to the "Impeach Bush Now" crowd as "Liberal Idiots" and his reasoning behind it was because in the very practical sense, Democrats do NOT have the votes to impeach Bush.

Not only would impeachment require the crossover of Republican legislators, it would also require that all Democrats vote as a block...yeah...like that's ever going to happen...

So in the very practical sense, Dave is right.

The only thing that bothers me is that is Bush starts a war with Iran which leads to a larger, regional conflict and perhaps involves Russia....

Well

I'll be sorry the Liberal Idiots didn't prevail.
