Talk of Bush impeachment becoming more evident

Once again, Athens Banner-Herald columnist Ed Tant has brought the many problems with the war in Iraq and the Bush administration's inept or immoral policies to our attention

(Column, "Americans getting tired of Bush's war in Iraq," June 11).

It is unfortunate some of this country's citizens still believe in this debacle and continue to view the Bush administration in a favorable light. It is also unfortunate so many are so willing to blindly follow these leaders, apparently believing their fantastic tales and fantasies. One has only to listen carefully to Bush and Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld to grasp the meaninglessness of their double-speak and impotent claims.

What should be clear by now is that we are not winning anything in Iraq. We are not gaining any useful information in Guantanamo. We are no longer being looked up to by the rest of the world. Worse still, our actions have promoted terrorists and terrorism.

Our reputation for fairness, our belief in human rights and democracy are all being shattered by policies that will eventually destroy us.

John Dean, counsel in the Nixon White House, and Paul Craig Roberts, an assistant treasury secretary in the Reagan administration, have written about impeachment in connection with the Bush administration. All Americans should think seriously about this possibility and support any in Congress who believe it is an unfortunate, although necessary, act in order to restore our country's integrity.
