We had to wait for the jury to return their verdict of "Scooter" Libby guilty of four counts of perjury, false statements and obstruction of justice. But the majority of the American people had already reached THEIR verdict that the high crimes of the Bush administration, enough to impeach a dozen presidents, can no longer be tolerated. Says Linda Boyd, Director of the Eastside Fellowship Of Reconciliation (EFOR), "The U.S. is in an illegal war, illegally torturing people, the federal government is illegally spying on US citizens, our constitution is being shredded." And yet, Congress still does not act.
Harry Reid said this about the Libby verdicts, "It's about time someone in the Bush Administration has been held accountable." Coming from anybody OTHER that the MAJORITY leader of the United States Senate, those words might be taken an expression of exasperated relief. But for us, our exasperation with the Democrats in Congress continues unabated, which is why we the people must press for investigation and impeachment by the best avenue available to us, through courageous state legislatures like Washington state.
