McGovern calls for impeachment

I loved him in 1972 and I still love him today. Senator George McGovern, the Democratic nominee for President in 1972, has written a call for impeachment of Bush and Cheney that is printed on the op-ed page of today's Washington Post. Read it.

No one has talked about this very much, but I see great danger for American democracy in the decades ahead if there is no formal repudiation of the Bush-Cheney horrors, either through impeachment or indictment or both. Just letting them go quietly into history risks a new and worse Bush figure building on the legacy of this one.
